DIY Pearl Bobby Pins



Hey guys! Sorry it's taken sooooo long to do another blog post, school has been taking up a lot of my time lately. Anyway I went alum from my sorority about two semesters ago and I decided to make a little gift for all the girls to remember me. I was searching all over for an easy way to make a hair pin and this idea came to me when I went shopping for the materials. These were seriously so cheap and didn't take very long to make! 

Materials:

Pearl Beads
$3.99 at WalMart


Bobby Pins
$2.00 at Walmart

You will also need a hot glue gun!


Directions:

First you want to go ahead and have your hot glue gun ready to go. 

I started out gluing each bead individually on the bobby pin and I realized it was going to take FOREVER so I decided I would glue the beads together first.


  So I hot glued 5 beads together, because that is how many would fit on each bobby pin.


Once you have glued all the beads together it's time to hot glue them to a bobby pin.


I put hot glue on each bobby pin and then stuck the already glued together beads on it. I squeezed the beads and the bobby pin together until the hot glue was done cooling off. When it is your pearl bobby pin is complete!


All you have to do is repeat the above steps if you are going to be making more than one! I made 95 of these bad boys so it took me a while to finish all of them, but I was very satisfied with how they all turned out.




I hope you all enjoyed this tutorial and I promise I will start posting more!

<3 Em

DIY Dr. Seuss Cat in the Hat Costume

The school that I work at is having a Dr. Seuss Themed Literacy night. Since I am working a station with another teacher and already had this costume, I decided I would make my partner one as well. It is super easy and cheap!!! Hope you enjoy :) Materials you will need: White Foam Sheet (Michael's) Red Koozie (Michael's) Headband White paper Hot glue gun Step 1: Find a cup that is bigger than the koozie and trace it on the foam sheet. Step 2: Cut the circle out. Step 3: Cut out two strips of paper that are a little less than an inch wide. Step 4: Hot glue both strips of paper around the koozie. I did trim the length of the strips just a little and just glued the ends down. I did not put glue all over the back, because you would see the glue through the paper. Step 5: Hot glue the koozie to the circle piece of white foam. Make sure to put it in the center before glueing it down. Step 6: Hot glue the hat to th...

How to Paint Laminate Countertops

Image
Hey guys! So this past winter I bought a house that needed some major TLC. The room that seemed to need the most work was the kitchen. And with this being my first home I wanted to make it everything I wanted because I spend quite a lot of time in the kitchen. Because I had such a tight budget I was looking into various ways I could make my kitchen look like a million bucks without breaking the bank. I did three major improvements to the kitchen: Painted the cabinets white Painted the backsplash white Painted the countertops Today I am going to talk about how I painted my ugly cream color countertops! I did a TON of research on painting countertops and narrowed down it down to a product that is seriously amazing! I ended up going with DAICH SpreadStone Mineral Select 1 qt. Onyx Fog Countertop Refinishing Kit . It is only sold online and at Home Depot. One thing I will say that I hate myself for is that this actually goes on sale around Black Friday time for $75! So when ...
