It's summertime! That means bring your summer fashion game. It also means protecting yourself from the harsh sun rays. That doesn't mean you can't do in style!
Here's an easy diy on how to decorate your summer hat! With this project, you can make several decorated ribbon bands to go around your hat, giving it different looks whenever you want!
First, measure your hat, then cut your ribbon according to size. Make sure to cut your ends with pinking shears!
Shimmer sheet: Place it glue side up on the ironing board and set your ribbon on top. Use a pressing cloth to carefully iron it in place. Cut off the extra. Repeat for the rest of the length of the ribbon.
For the gems, put the
Tacky Dots on the back of the gems, then simply place them on the ribbon! After this, place a tacky dot on the back of your hat to connect the ribbon. I used one, but for security you can place them around the hat.
Other ideas - Use Puffy Paint, paint or stencils and glitter!
Hey everyone! I have been itching to get another tattoo just like this. But I'm very indecisive. So, using, Tulip Body Art Markers, and help from my dad, I asked my dad if he could draw me a rose to see if I could really handle another!
First, outline your design with your with the shimmer stick. If you mess up, you can take it off easy with a wipe!
Next, Color in the design with the marker. To make it look like the rose had a bit of a shine, he didn't fill it in all the way. After this filling this, fill in the leaves. These markers dry right away, so don't worry about smearing it! To take it off, use soap and water.
There you have it! Your own painless tattoo! I had this on for about a day and realized I didn't really want another one THIS big. Thank goodness for these body art markers!
Hey guys! Have you ever heard of a boyfriend pillow? It looks like this:
It's a pillow with the torso and arm of a male, made to be a perfect cuddle pillow. Some people might get freaked out from this, but ever since they showed it on GLEE, I've heard all my friends talking about it, and some even buying them. They retail for 40 bucks. 40?! For a pillow?! That's insane! So, I decided to make my own, since I LOVE pillows. Also...because it looks fun! :)
GLEE VIDEO:
Here's my take on the Boyfriend Pillow! Please watch my video and like or give it a comment! Thanks!
(NOTE: If you like music- that's me singing in the video, it's an original song I wrote just for this project!)
1. Set your flannel shirt out flat on a table. For a bigger pillow, make sure to get an XXL shirt! Button up the shirt.
2. Draw a chalk line next to the buttons, then cut all along that line.
3. Fold in the raw edges, use Aleene's Fabric Fusion Tape along the edges and fold over to seal the hem.
4. Add a thick line of Fabric Fusion along the edge and press the two sides in place and use clothespins to hold in place until the glue dries. Also glue the neck area and in between the buttons.
5. Stuff your pillow! Add a little less in the arm so you can bend it around you when you sleep!
Hey everyone! I LOVE candles. So I always have them around the house. And honestly, they aren't that pretty. You know what is pretty? Yarn! So for this project I wanted to make these candles look as good as they smell!(a little confidence boost...yeah?) :)
First, place the tacky strip around the candle and press down to seal it. Next, remove the paper to expose the tacky strip. Repeat this leaving a space between the top.
Then wrap the yarn around the candle. Make sure you leave about an inch from the top to avoid your yarn catching on fire! Other ideas: buttons, puffy paint, crystals, beads in a bottle etc!
