YOU NEED -

- Popsicle (or craft) Sticks

- A Cup

- Water

- Pretty Paper

- Mod Podge

O1. Soak your popsicle sticks in water for a few hours. You want them to be bendy, so it'll probably take like three hours.

O2. Now you want to put them in teh cup (like the picture in the set). This will give them their shape, so try to get a cup slightly larger than your wrist.

Let them sit overnight.

* You will probably break a few trying to get them in the cup. It's no big deal, just make some extra.

O3. ModPodge your scrapbooking paper or whatever to your popsicle stick.

* You may want to sand down the edges. It'll look more complete than just cutting them off.

THAT'S IT!

So simple, so cute. (:

4. How-To Bath Fizzies

ce-cube trays serve as molds, giving the fizzies their shape. Using a flexible silicone model lets you slide the cubes out smoothly without breaking them.

Show off the colors of the bath fizzies in glass jars with screw tops, the kind used for storing sugar and flour. Pack each type of fizzy in a separate jar so the scents won't meld. Write the name of the scent on a vellum tag (choose a shade that matches the fizzies), and punch a hole in the top. Thread the tag with ribbon, and tie it around the jar.

Citric acid, a common food additive, is available at wine-making-supply stores, some spice shops, and online. When citric acid is combined with baking soda and placed in water, a chemical reaction creates bubbles.

6. LIGHT BULB VASES

ecycle those old light bulbs and create darling vases for your next party or event! Simply hang them from branches or outdoor yard hooks! Fill with small buds or greenery for a whimsical little vase! In order to sit upright, you have to set your light bulb on a round washer or some sort of rubber round in order for it to stay stable. We love them hanging though!

STEP 1: Carefully peel off the contact at the base of the light bulb using needle-nose pliers. Lightly tap the black glass at the base of the light bulb with a hammer (be careful + wear safety goggles). It might take a bit of practice to carefully crack this black glass.

STEP 2: Remove the inner wires of the light bulb (use the needle-nose pliers or Allen wrench).

STEP 3: Fill with water + your flowers!

STEP 4 (optional): If hanging, tie light bulb with twine or ribbon and securely attach to branch or hook.

7. Chalkboard Necklace

Without further ado…let’s get crafting!

For our snow globe, we opted for a generally festive theme, but if you want mini snow flurries in your globe, find icy-colored glitter and snowflake confetti to create those whorls of white. Snow globes are also great ways to capture memories — fill a globe with a souvenir from a recent trip to create a travel-themed globe, or locate an inside joke-ridden childhood trinket to make a globe for a friend. The possibilities are endless!
