Canada Day is just around the corner are you excited!? I know that I am excited. I know that many people like to host and go to parties on July 1st so I decided to create a cute d.i.y. type gift to give to either the guests of the party as a party favour or you could create it for a gift to give to the host. I was able to pick up all the productes I got at Michaels if you were wondering where you could purchase everything but I we are not sponsered by them. In this gift you could put whatever you like inside but I decided to give you a few ideas!
What I used:
~ a jar cup
~ mini red and white pom poms
~ Canada style patches
~ glow sticks
~ starbursts(or any candy that has either red or white)
~ mini clothes pins
~ mini picture of your choice
Then I just put the products inside however I liked and that was it. It was simple and pretty cheap I believe that it cost me $30 with extra things left over. i hope you enjoy it and try this out. If you do, don’t forget to tag us in our social media!
Hey Guys, yesterday I thought that it would be fun to film a little hair tutorial for you! When we started filming we thought that we could use an editing app but, it turned out we couldn’t so that is why the quality is not the best. I love the hair style and I hope you do too! If you need some extra instructions I will write them down below.
What you will need:
small hair elastic
large hair elastic
comb
bobby pins
The first step is creating a side part. The dutch braid will not work nicely unless you can do it across most of your head. Then dutch braid down as far as you like then tie it off. After you do that take the rest of your hair and the other braid and normaly braid that down to the bottom of your hair. When you are done take the braid and wrap it around itself into a bun. Pin it together and you are done!
Latley I have really been in a crafty mood from watching the videos on how to make things, to actually making things. Today I decided to show you two different things to spice up your room. They are both very simple because I am not really good at making things but they look really nice.
Project #1. I really enjoy reading and I love displaying my books but I don’t like the colours with my room. This d.i.y. lets you put your books on display but in a way that matches whatever colours your room are.
What you will need:
~nice paper, I chose purple because that is my room accent
~books
~sissors
~tape
~lots of time
Then what I did was take the books and line them up the way I want them. This is important if you have different sized books and/or different colour paper because you don’t want the same paper together or the same size books all together.
Next you want to take your books and measure the paper you want it and cut it.
If the paper is not long enough just take some tape and tape the sides. It doesn’t really matter where the paper ends on the book, the main place that needs to be covered is the spine. And that is it! I think that is looks really nice.
Craft #2. I saw this d.i.y. on youtube and it looked really fun so I decided why not, lets try it. It is a galaxy in a jar and it is really pretty.
What you will need:
-cotten balls
-acrylic paint(4 colours)
-water
-a jar
-glitter
-containers
-mixing stick
Take the paint and put it in a container filled with water. The more that you put in the water the more pigmented the galaxy will be.
Next put the cotton balls in the jar. Make sure to measure out how much of each colour you want.
Next pour the colours in the order that you want. make sure not to add to much water and make it look soupy.
Then to add the final touch in between add so glitter and just repeat the last step with other colours. That is it, it is really easy and super cute. And that is it. I hope that you like them and try them out. If you do tag us on Instagram @basicbloggerss 😉
