Want S’more Oatmeal? The slumber party was fun We were up at 6am for our yoga practice – 45 minutes of Core Yoga. Matt joined us too!! (He REALLY needs to work on his hips – they do not open at all!) Core Yoga had me shaking from head to toe at times. It was hard, but I held crow for a few seconds again! So did KLM. I just wish the class had a bit more Sun B flow to it. This box of graham crackers came with my USMills cereal package and as soon as I saw it I knew S’mores oatmeal was on the way. With TJ’s vanilla meringues and a dark chocolate mousse bar – Each girl got half a graham, 5 meringues and 1/4 of the bar – about 50 kcal worth of “dessert” toppings.

September 10th, 2010 VanessaF Our twitter fans have asked “How do you wear a scarf as a vest?” What you will need: A scarf Safety pin Turning a scarf into a vest is easy and a great way to offer a different look to your outfit as well as your accessory serving a completely different purpose.

Step 1. Align your scarf so that its centered around your neck and even on both sides. Step 2. Place the two ends together and twist. Step 3. Place a safety pin inside the twisted area to secure the scarf. You can also close the front of the scarf about half way down in the center and pin it there as well for a closed look, however, getting away with a pin in the back is easier than in the front so if it doesn’t work out try using a matching brooch to make it a bit more chic. -Vanessa F.

I liked it very much and had to make some more—thus today's DIY recycled newspaper project: gift bags made from the Wall Street Journal. You can vary the dimensions, of course, but here's what I used to create a bag that's 5" tall, 4.5" wide, and 3" deep. Stack two sheets of newspaper on top of each other. This will be a two-ply bag for extra sturdiness. Cut out a rectangle that's 15.5" wide and 8.25" tall. If your paper already has a fold in it, align the existing fold with one of the fold lines in the diagram below, unless you don't mind an extra fold appearing somewhere on your bag. Fold a flap 1.25" down from the top. Cut two pieces of cardstock or chipboard to 4.25" x 1", then glue them on the widest two panels just under the top fold. Upend the bag so the 2" flap is now up.

Put glue on both flaps and fold them inward to form the bottom of the bag. The Perfect Pantry Article - Allrecipes.com - StumbleUpon. Paper Gift Topper - The Crafts Dept.

The principle is simple and seductively clever: solar lights that store energy during the day and release light at night.

These can be purchased ready-made in a variety of colors (yellow, blue and red) but they can also be built at home. A simple, less-technical approach involves buying a conventional solar-powered yard lamp and then essentially harvesting it for key pieces to put in a jar. This is simply a way of taking an existing solar lamp design and appropriating its parts to make something more attractive for display around a house or home. A more electronically-savvy individual can take the more complex route and built a solar lamp from the ground up using small solar panels – though the aesthetic result may not be as impressive.

Whatever route you choose to go, these are fun and sustainable gadgets that make it easy to go green, automate the process of turning on lights at night and can add some color to your porch, patio, garden or windowsill. Colorful Paper Vase Cover. Do-it-Yourself DIY String Wedding Lanterns Yarn Chandeliers. Jessica of Wednesday Inc shows us how to make those gorgeous twine chandeliers from the inspiration shoot she shared with us this morning. Using balloons, glue and twine, you can also make these lanterns for your wedding – and then bring it home and use it as your very own mid century lampshade. What you will need are: balloons, glue, yarn, tray for glue, corn starch 1/2 cup of Corn starch, 1/4 cup of Warm water, clear fast drying spray paint, hanging lamp cord or fishing line (depending on your desired final product), and a lighting kit if you’re looking for a fully functional lantern.

Jessica recommends using a sharpie to mark on the inflated balloon how much room you need to leave for the lighting cord. She also recommends coating the balloon with vaseline prior to wrapping the yarn coated with glue so it doesn’t stick on the balloon once it’s dry. You can see all the details on Jessica’s blog.

Hack Apart a Highlighter to Create UV-Reactive Flowers [Science] - How-To G... College students have long been hacking apart highlighters to create glowing bottles of booze to line their dorm room walls. Far more interesting, however, is the application of the hack to flowers. Many of you may remember a science class experiment from years gone by where in you put food coloring in a beaker and then some freshly cut white flowers; returning to the experiment a day later yielded flowers colored to match the dye you added.

This little experiment relies on the same technique, only instead of blue food coloring the flowers suck up UV-reactive highlighter dye. Check out the video below to see the experiment in action: Have a fun science experiment to share?
