Golden Dranks

Press play. The soundtrack to my creativity awaits.

I love gold accents.. and I love a good dranky drank. -Nat's Confessions

My goal is to master recreating all of my favorite things. Lately, I have been experimenting with various martini concoctions and replicating gold accents that I can't afford due to the way my bank account is set up. I proudly present to you a blood orange martini and a gold dipped vase. If you choose to experiment with the recipe below, please drink responsibly.. however you define responsibly is up to your discretion. 

Nat's Confessions:

Blood Orange Martini:
6 ounces of fresh squeezed blood orange juice
3 ounces of Tito's Handmade Vodka (there's nothing better)
2 ounces of triple sec
a splash of fresh squeezed lime and orange juice

Shake with ice, run a lime around the rim of the glass and dust with sugar, pour, serve, and enjoy. 

Gold Dipped Vase:

Step 1:
Clean the vase and place painter's tape evenly around it.

Step 2:
Cover the rest of the vase by taping some sort of protectant to the areas that you do not wish to cover with paint. 

Step 3:
Spray evenly around the vase.

Step 5:
Place your favorite flowers in your new Gold Dipped Vase.. and be sure to remove leaves that fall below the surface of the water.

Step 4:
Carefully remove the tape once the paint has completely dried.

Step 6:
Enjoy!

P.S. The chair I'm sitting in is another diy project.. look at the picture below to see what it used to look like!
