I used the same process for this DIY as I did for my DIY Kawaii pill pen. I began by using a dark brown oven bake clay (you can use air-dry) and shaped it into a shape that resembled a Hershey Kiss. Once I got my desired shape I took the inside of the pen and marked how much I needed to cut it down to fit inside my kiss. I trimmed it down and sealed the hole with glue. Once that dried I stuck it through the middle of the clay. I then removed it and baked it. If you are using air dry clay you can skip this step.
Sorry we've been having a lot of scheduling issues and this post was originally supposed to be published last week! Back at it again with the novelty DIYS! I actually made this DIY a while ago and I've had so many people ask if it was real! This is such a cute project and perfect for back to school.

This next part is optional but recommended! I cut out a square of aluminum foil and wrapped my kiss to look like the actual candy. I then took the tag out of an actual kiss an folded it in! When your ready to use the pen just simply peel back the foil and write away!

This was supposed to be posted two weeks ago *cringe* I'm so sorry about the delay! Honestly I don't know how I come up with this stuff, but here it is! Please remember that this is a novelty DIY and not meant to be portrayed as a practical one! But if you want to give it go here's what you need! -Black Nail polish ( you can find it for a buck at the drugstore) -pencil(s) Tools - a blade - *(optional tools) So you have to begin by shaving off the graphite from the pencils into a fine powder. They more powder the more pigmented you polish will be, but be careful not to add so much that the polish gets clumpy. *You have to do this by getting the graphite stick out of the pencil. You can use your blade to split the pencil in half, but I used a pair of wire cutters and took off chunks of pencil wood. Then use your blade and stroke the graphite to get a powder. Lastly I used a paper funnel to pour my shavings into the polish. Paint on your nails and your done! Tips:~ don't use a top coat over your pencil polish!
~ Altoigh graphite is should be non toxic be careful if your prone to putting your fingers in your mouth! This was such an easy DIY project and it was really fun to make! To make this DIY you need
-An empty EOS -Sand - small pebbles, succulents etc - a toothpick or any pointed tool to make your designs First begin by removing the grate to your EOS. There is hundreds of tutorials on how to do this on You Tube but I recommend using a flat nosed screw driver. Clean the container and make sure all excess lip balm is removed. Pop the grate back in Now you will want to add any fake succulents you have. This is typically easier to do before you pour in the sand. I found a succulent made for a fairy garden that I cut down but you can always make one out of polymer clay. I then filled my EOS with sand and made my designs with the toothpick. Last but not least add in your pebbles or any other decorations your heart desires! This "pizza" is delicious and takes no time at all to make! All you need is- ~ egg noodles ~ your favorite pasta sauce ~ mozzerella cheese ~ preferred toppings (I used basil) To make Thai pizza begun by deciding how much pasta to cook. Fill the dish you want to cook it in with your egg noodles. Boil your water and cook the pasta, but not completly. Strain the water and pour your pasta in your dish. Next, immediately put some cheese on the pasta to help bond the pasta together. Then preheat your oven to 350 degrees. If the heat of the pasta doesn't melt the cheese then put it in the ones until it melts. Now add your sauce and desired toppings. Once everything is on your "pizza" put it in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted. Cut and enjoy! I made this really pretty Ombrè highlighter and I wanted to teach you guys how to make it! If you come over to Lazy Stars a lot you might reconize the container from our Watermelom DIYs! What you need- ~An empty pallette ~eyeshadow ( in different shades of the color you want) ~rubbing alcohol ~paper towels You can make this highlighter any color(s) you want but I chose pink! This is a very easy DIY. In two small containers (such as plastic shot glasses, bottle caps, etc) put all the different shades of shadow you will be using each individually. Add rubbing alcohol to each powder until you get a paste like consistency. Now put the paste in your pallette in order from either darkest to lightest or lightest to darkest.
Lastly place a paper towel down onto your wet paste and press formula onto your shadow. Peel off and let dry! First I would like to apologize for not posting last Saturday! I was on vacation and wasn't able to get one up for you guys! I have been wanting to share another Icecream tutorial for a while now and as I was brainstorming flavor ideas I came up with this one! I was originally thinking about the sprinkles. Normally the sprinkles are on top and you don't get them throughout all the Icecream. Then I thought, if I'm gonna pump up my Icecream with sprinkles, why not incorporate everything I put in my favorite sundae? So that's just what I did! Read on for how to make this delectable ice cream! First I made my Icecream base. This was not my own recipe, in fact, I looked mine up online. I used a Philedelphia style Icecream base but you can use whichever you prefer. Make your base based on the instructions on your recipe. Now churn your Icecream base as it is. You do not want to add in yiur fillings yet or the machine may break. Once your Icecream is churned add in your fillings. This all depends on which sundae your going for. I did mine pretty simple, I poured in sprinkles and swirled in chocolate and caramel topping. You can add whatever your heart desires! Nuts, Peanut Butter, chopped up candy, crushed cookies, etc. You can also go for a specific type of sundae. Like if you like Turtle Sundaes you can add chopped pecans, caramel sauce and chocolate sauce. If your going for a banana split type sundae you can add strawberry sauce, chocolate sauce and nuts and all you need is to serve it with a sliced banana! If your going for a peanut butter sundae you an swirl in peanut butter (I reccomend gently melting before you swirl) and chopped up peanut butter cups. You could even make a snickers sundae by adding caramel, chocolate, and peanuts! The possibility are endless! After adding your desired fixings, pour into an airtight container and place in freezer to freeze. Let sit for at least 6 hours to serve. (Time may vary based on amount of Icecream and container it is put into) I hope you enjoy making your very own #sundaeinascoop
I was playing around with some clay when it hit me to make a watermelon themed post! Here are 5 watermelon inspired DIYs! I've been working on these for the past few weeks so I hope you like it! Click on read more to find the instructions!
These Icecream balls were super fun to make and eat! To make them you need- • Ice cream of your choice • Chocolate hard shell (you can make your own by melting half coconut oil and half chocolate of choice) •Toppings of choice • Fruit baller First make sure your Icecream is really hard. If it is too soft in the tub you can lay a flat layer down on a Pyrex baking pan and freeze until firm. Next using your fruit baller, ball up the Icecream into neat balls and place immediately into the freezer to harden again. Now prepare your toppings. I used crushed cereal, chipped freeze dried strawberries and rainbow sprinkles but you can use whatever you'd prefer! Some other good ideas may be chopped nuts, coconut flakes or even more shaved chocolate! The possibilities are endless! Lastly pour your chocolate hares hell over your Icecream balls, immediately and quickly spring on your topping and place back in the freezer until uour ready to serve! If your making a lot of these little treats is reccomend doing them in 5-10 ball increments so they don't melt as you coat the others! Enjoy!
I made these adorable Geode inspired bath bombs! I am so happy with how these came out!!!
For the bath bomb itself I just used a recipe I found on Pinterest. Their are so many so use your favorite one! After I made my bath bomb mixture I portioned it out into two bowls. I left one white and dyed the other one brown, using soap color. You can use food color but use it at your own risk! For the molds I experimented. I tried putting the mixture into bowls, aluminum foil and cupcake wrappers. The bowls will work if you line them with cling wrap before you put the mixture into it. To make the aluminum foil mold, grab a generous amount of foil and shape it around your fist. When you get your desired shape you can add the mixture. First add the brown mixture. Be sure to cover the sides and bottom with a nice thick layer. Next press the white mixture in the middle. Repeat that step with any mold you decide to use. To make the crystals I used bath salts. Color clear bath salts any color you want your crystals to be with soap colorant. To get this to stick to the bath bomb, melt 1-2 cubes of clear soap base and mix it in with your bath salts to get a thick consistency. Spread on top of your geode. Wait overnight for these to harden. Next peel the aluminum foil from around the bath bomb. This may be tricky at first but you'll eventually get it all! Or just depot from the mild you used!! Enjoy your luxorious new bath bombs! I recently came up with this recipe and I will say it is delicious and I can not wait for you to try it out! Ingredients-
• one pint of organic heavy whipping cream •one half of an organ whole vanilla bean •one cup of organic 2% milk •1/4 cup of organic cane sugar Tools- •An Icecream machine •An airtight container •a bowl •a spoon Instructions- Combine 2% milk and sugar until sugar is dissolved. Add your one pint of cream and mix lightly. Now de-seed your vanilla bean. Do this by simply slicing it in half and collecting all the seeds. You can use organic extract, but you will not get the signiture black dots seen in a vanilla bean Icecream. You can also add some extract if the bean does not add enough flavor for your taste. Let covered Icecream base chill in the freezer for two hours. Put into Icecream machine until creamy! If you do not have a machine, pour the base into your airtight container and freeze, every 40 min mix the base and scrape at it until it is your desired consistency, it won't be as creamy but it'll taste delicious! Store in an airtight container in the freezer. |
