Lip balm
Thanks for joining me for Day 8 of the 14 Days of Love project! If you have been following along you know that Dana from Wonder Forest and myself teamed up to shared 7 projects each (over the course of 2 weeks) with a sort of 'love' theme to them.

5 ways to get more wear out of a too-pale lipstick

Make Your Own Lip Gloss
Living in Florida, I've ended up melting my favorite chap stick (Burt's Bees) in the car too many times to count. Usually I try to set it upright to cool, and hope it resettles the right way, but somehow it's never the same. So when I saw this DIY lip gloss tutorial, I thought it would be a great use for my melted chap stick. What you need: 1.
Craft: Valentine's Day Wall Art
I loved how my Valentine's Day garland and wreath looked so I decided to make another Valentine's Day decoration.

Supplies: Card stock, pattern to print (I did sheet music), scissors, tapeCost: $0 (I already had all of the supplies) I started off by printing off sheet music.
