Autumn Crafts: Eyeballs

The thing I don’t really like about crafts is the part that I have to buy a bunch of special supplies. Well, now I made the absolutely same crafts except used the supplies around the house!:)

Here’s what I did:

replaced the plastic ball for a ball of crumpled paper

drew the eyes myself

toilet paper or tissues for the “cloth”

Guess what? It looks better!

POW!!!

Horse Whisperer

Hello!

I’m currently working on a story called the HORSE WHISPERER! Here’s a little summary:

Kestrel, a young girl with an old bookstore receives a strange book from a sorceress. The book is about the sacred Mesquite Horses. One day Kestrel finds a lost mesquite stallion in the woods. She has no idea that its her destiny to complete a long journey filled with hidden traps only to find that special frindship between a horse and a human.

Clipboard Art

Below you will see a clipboard I have made. It is a collage made out of scraps of paper, cut out from magazines taped down on a clipboard.

Cool Wallpaper

This is wallpaper I had made using  a scarf and a Chococat pocket mirror. Cute, huh?

The great art of stink bombs

Have you ever tried to make a stink bomb?  Well for a long time I have been looking for good recipes.  In the end it all comes down to this:

What really smells bad?

  1. eggs
  2. spices when mixed with something
  3. what hides in a pet’s litter box ( had to say that one!!! )

4.  the bark they put in backyards

5. wet bark

6. mud

It’s up to you to make a perfect mix of these ingredients in a container ( bottles are good. )

good luck!!

QuickCodes exercise to begobble your brain….

cat= 42225651

When you get it see the post answer to the code the password is ididit.

Disguise Master Course

Sometimes with people like me disguises don’t come easy. I mean like you aren’t going to walk around with a platinum blond wig and bright red lips. I mean seriously grow up! Don’t listen to any books (except maybe Kiki Strike) because guess what…… they aren’t going to help you at all! Something you need is a spy in the know, someone like me for example. And you have been very lucky to find me.

A good disguise is carefully constructed. Let’s start with hair. You have a couple options. First of course is covering your hair up with a hat or bandanna ( I am not necessarily saying it would work, I never promised you that…) Next you could go for a wig. I suggest using the Wigglary under here to determine what color.

Wigglary

If your hair is…

Blond(e) I suggest brown or red

Black- dark brown works well

Brown- Black or red

Red- brown, black

The golden rule is to never dye your hair. Doesn’t work if you need a switch of disguise quick.

Next part is easy; clothes should pretty much be unbright and shouldn’t say anything on it.

Best of luck to you,

Arlyn
