New Paints

I went to Michael's and bought some new watercolor supplies 

Paper: Canson XL
Paints: Artist's Loft set of 36
Brushes: Artist's Loft Watercolor Set




Just after I got them, I started making swatches.


I painted blank labels, then punched them out with a 1 inch circle punch,
stuck them onto a paper, and came up with names for each!
It was pretty fun!

DIY Brown Sugar Lip Scrub!


This all natural brown sugar lip scrub will leave your lips soft and ready for summer!


  • 2 tbsp organic brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp honey
  • A tiny splash of vanilla (I dipped my spoon in vanilla and used it to mix the ingredients)
  • Tiny containers to store

1. Combine your ingredients, mixing the wet ingredients first, then adding to the sugar.




2. Spoon it into your containers!
(This makes a perfect little gift)



3. Apply to your lips, Rub em' together, lick it off to reveal silky smooth lips!

4. Every time you exfoliate, you should make sure to moisturize afterwards.
So balm up your lips with an all natural chap stick and enjoy a summer ready mouth!

DIY Vegi Stamps


I'm back! School is finally out and I am ready to start posting again! This is a super fun and simple craft perfect for making cards or gifts!


  • Paper
  • Paint (I used a mettalic green, purple, and pink)
  • Vegetables! (I used bok choy stems)
  • A tray or lid to mix your paint

1. Prepare your paper and paints!

Pour a bit of each paint into your tray and make sure your
 paper is out and ready for stamping! 

2. Place your stamps face down in the paint color of your choice
and twirl them around to make sure they are fully coated.


3. Press your stamps face down onto your paper, and
press them down to be sure every part is imprinted onto your paper





(It is good to do a few practice ones before you start on a final)

4.  Repeat and make a masterpiece!


Have fun! I will post more soon!
