Teñir cabello con tiza - Estar más linda Como hemos visto en una de nuestras galerias, las fotos de colores de cabello inusuales están por doquier, ya sea en campañas publicitarias o en la alfombra roja (como en el caso de Katy Perry con pelo azul o Dakota Fanning con pelo rosa) Afortunadamente, no es necesario tener el sueldo de una estrella para experimentar con diversos colores en nuestro pelo, ya que es posible teñir el cabello con tiza y convertir temporalmente nuestra cabellera en un arcoiris. Para hacer esto debemos contar con una tiza blanca y otras tizas de los colores que decidamos teñir nuestro cabello y una plancha alisadora o buclera. En primer lugardebemos tomar un mechón de nuestro pelo y mojarlo. Una vez húmedo, lo enrollamos con la mano y comenzamos a pasarle tiza blanca como si lo estuviéramos coloreando. Luego, empezamos a pasarle tiza de color. Una vez que hayamos impregnado bien el color de la tiza en el pelo, lo soltamos y dejamos que se desenrolle solo.

Denim-tie dye (floral-y) This DIY kick starts my tie dye week (another version to come) and just might be my most favorite DIY yet!! As I was perusing the latest Elle magazine, I saw an ad for Paige denim. It was for a beautiful pair of tri-colored tie dye jeans (Paige Toulouse Verdugo Skinny). I have been on a color obsession lately and had to have my hands on these. The price was a little out of reach for me, so I thought I would take a stab at it myself. Materials: - white skinny denim (I bought an inexpensive pair from Target here ) - RIT dye (denim blue, wine bordo, and petal pink) - sponge brush Steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. NOTE on Washing: I recommend setting the dye before washing.
Tutorial: Homemade Sidewalk Chalk | oh my! handmade goodness - StumbleUpon by Michelle Vackar, Modern Handmade Child One of our favorite outside activities at our home is drawing with chalk on the driveway. You can play hopscotch, four-square, and of course draw and create silly stories. My daughters and I were talking one day as we played hopscotch about how to make chalk and I thought to myself, let’s try it! It ended up being quite a lot of fun. What you will need: • Toilet paper or paper towel tubes • Scissors • Duct tape • Wax paper • Small bucket or disposable container to make the recipe • ¾ cup of warm water • 1 ½ cups Plaster of Paris • 2-3 tablespoons of tempera paint • Paper bag or a “mess mat” ** we made six tubes of chalk – we simply doubled the above recipe Step 1: If you are using paper towel tubes, cut each tube in half, so it is roughly the length of a toilet paper roll tube. Step 2: Cover one end of each tube with duct table to hold the contents within. Step 3: Cut as many pieces of wax paper as you have tubes.
shorts- floral stencil (DIY) Now that spring has officially rolled around, my love for florals is in it's prime! I've been experimenting with stencils quite often lately, so I couldn't help but make a flower printed garment for the season. The great part of this project is that you can use any stencil you'd like (leaves? I tend to mix girly and not-so-girly concepts together; the design is feminine, so I purposely found a pair of jeans that were a bit loose fitting. Keep reading to see how I made it: Supplies: - Large flower/rose stencil (I bought mine at Michael's) - Jeans - White fabric paint - Flat sponge brush - Masking tape & thin paintbrush 1) Tape the stencil onto the jeans. 2) Apply paint with the brush. Having a fairly light hand might be more ideal for this project. 3) Let dry, and repeat on random areas on the jeans. 4) Try adding flowers on the sides, overlapping the seam. 5) If you would like, take a paintbrush and draw pointed ovals - also known as leaves! Be sure to show me if you make your own version!

heart friendship bracelets So you know the drill, Get you some friendship thread and let's make a bracelet, or two, or three. Cut 4 strands of each color. Each strand should be about 2 ft. long. Play it safe. Tie them all together and tuck them under a clipboard or tape it down. The first two rows you do will just be a traditional chevron. After you reach the middle, start the same process on the right side. Your chevron is complete. Now, this part it the different part. Repeat on the right side except you will tie a forward knot with the string that is second from the right onto the string furthest to the right. Do the same on the right side with backward knots. Continue knotting onto the last string from the left side. Now, repeat that same exact row again. Now repeat all that over and over again until it's long enough. Yay! xo, Savannah + Casey
mad in crafts: DIY Fire & Ice Lanterns - StumbleUpon The old becomes new: A new variation on the outdoor lantern. We have had an unusually warm winter in Michigan this year, and while the temps have been nice, I have had to hold off on this project idea until we got a cold snap. We finally got some snow and cold earlier this week, so I was able to try out this fun winter project. I had pinned a product called Globe Ice Lantern Kits a few months back recognizing that I could DIY them at home. Originally priced at nearly $30 for a kit that makes 6 lanterns, I think they are very reasonable for a small batch. If you are making several (say, for a special event or to light a walkway), you can make 3 of these DIY versions for only $2 worth of supplies from the dollar store. To make DIY Fire & Ice Lanterns, you will need: a package of 3 punch balloons from the dollar store a package of 3 LED tea lights from the dollar store bowls small cylinder (shot glass, pop bottle, etc.) water freezer or below-freezing outdoor temps
