MAKE SLIME gak goo ooblekk #2
Here is another (CaRPET FRiENDLY) way of making SliME GAK GOO OOBLEKK.
Hehe its just cornstarch and water with a bit of food coloring. It has a different texture than the glue slime. Its powdery and soft on the hands PLUS it has a cool scientific explaination behind it ... " This type of slime is made up of long chains of atoms - a polymer. These chains can move past each other, but they take some time to do this. If you pour it slowly, it can flow like a liquid. If you try to force things and make the chains slide more quickly than they want to, they get entangled - and the mixture gets firmer. So if you push hard on it, it acts more like a solid."
It is FUN to make and play with.

Decorate Ceramic Mugs with SHARPIES/ Permanent markers
So if you are looking for a project to keep the kids busy, or something nice and cool they can do to make for a teacher, mother's day, or fathers day....THEN this project is PERFECT.
Ceramic mugs used to be the old "cant do anything to this stupid mug, ughhh throwing it out." Or maybe it was "I am not spending $25 on ceramic markers so you can color on this mug"
WELL now you can use sharpie markers AKA permanent markers!!!
Get a blank ceramic cup, color/draw with these markers, and then bake in the oven.
I baked my cups at 425 for 30 minutes. Then I let them cool in the oven for fear of them cracking in my cold kitchen. Check out the video and have FUN!

Tissue Paper Flowers! Napkin flowers! EASY but pretty!
Tissue paper flowers are an easy and simple craft that anyone can do to add flair to a gift, bouquet, or spring craft! All it takes is a few steps using simple craft supplies. Most people use tissue paper to make the flowers, but I like to use paper napkins because they have an extra "fluffiness" that tissue cannot produce. I've used these flowers for Fourth of July centerpieces, mothers day gifts, and valentines day accents. Takes about 3 minutes to make each one if you use a die cut machine to create the shape. Take a look at the video below to make these awesome flowers!
Much LOVE,
Much LOVE,
