♥DIY: tattoo choker/bracelet!♥

Hi guys!

It has been a while... But now I am back! It is half term for me right now so I will try to post everyday whilst I am off school!!
Anyway, today I will tell you how to make a tattoo choker or bracelet! Lets get started!

What you'll need:

  • Stretchy cord/string/fishing line of any colour you prefer.
  • Binder clip
  • A book
  • scissors 
  • A candle or lighter
How to make it:
  1. Cut the string arms length (for choker) or inside your elbow (for bracelet). I would suggest that you add on a few inches more as it will help to end the choker/bracelet.
  2. Fold the string in half and using the binder clip, clip the centre to a book cover to stop the string from moving too much.
  3. Take one string and make a small loop, put the other string through the loop and then tighten it by pulling the loop to the top.
  4. Now just keep repeating but you must remember to switch strings each time.
  5. When you have finished looping the choker/bracelet and it is the right length, take it out from the binder clip. Pull one end of string through the loop at the end of the choker/bracelet we started at and knot the strings together a few times. Now you can cut off the excess ends.
  6. You can either leave it like that or to make sure the choker/bracelet is

🍪👻🎃DIY: Halloween cookies!🎃👻🍪

Hi guys!

It has been a while since my last post 😅, but I am back and I'm going to try and post at least once a week ☝️!
Plus on my haul post, it's not that much. I was going to put pictures on of the clothes that I got but I didn't have the lead for the camera to put it on my laptop 😐.
But anyway today I'm going to tell you how to decorate cookies, Halloween style! 


What you'll need:


  • Cookies or biscuits (plain ones are best)
  • A spoon
  • A butter knife
  • A bowl
  • A plate or tray
  • Water
  • Icing sugar
  • Food colouring (in Halloween colours e.g. Red, orange, brown, green)
  • If you are too lazy then you can go and buy coloured icing from the shop but I like to make it myself because that way I can make different colours.

How to do it:


  1. Take the cookies/biscuits and place them on a tray or plate.
  2. Get a bowl and put around one and a half tablespoons of icing sugar into it. (If you are using ready made icing then skip steps 2, 3 and 4👍)
  3. Add a small amount of water to the bowl. Stir the icing sugar together, the mixture should be quite pasty. If it is too thick, add bits of water and keep mixing until it is a bit more runnier. If it is too runny add a bit more icing sugar and mix.
  4. Add a tiny bit of food colouring and mix, remember a little goes along way! 
  5. Take the butter knife and a cookie/biscuit and using the knife spread the icing onto the cookie/biscuit. If you are drawing a picture, like a pumpkin, on your cookie/biscuit then spread the icing in the shape you are trying to draw. If you are using ready made icing it will probably be in a tube, you can squeeze the icing out in the shape that you want.
  6. If you need more than one type of colour of icing then wash out the bowl, spoon and knife and repeat steps 2,3,4 and 5.
  7. Once you have finished icing your cookies/biscuits put them on a plate or tray, serve and enjoy!
And that is how to decorate cookies- Halloween style!

DIY: Emoji backpack!!

Hi guys so today I will show you how to make an emoji backpack! I think this is a really cool idea and it is great because you can put whatever emojis you want on it!
So lets get started!

What you'll need:

  • A laptop or computer
  • A printer
  • A backpack or bag, white ones look the best- Make sure it is 100% cotton or else it won't work!
  • Transfer paper
  • A clothes iron
  • A pair of scissors
How to make it:

  1. Go onto your laptop or computer and go onto a word document and put the emojis that you want on your backpack on it. Make sure they are quite big or else they won't be big on your bag. Tip: do a few of the same sheets if you want the emojis to fill the entire bag.
  2. Put the transfer paper into your printer then print off the emojis. Once they have been printed off onto the transfer paper, cut them out.
  3. After you've done that place the emojis onto the bag so it looks like how you want it to look once you've made it. Now turn the emojis over so that the side that you can see the emojis on is facing the bag.
  4. Now start to iron over the emojis. Ironing over one at a time is a good idea. Remember to be careful whilst doing this!
  5. Finally just peel off the transfer paper and there you have your emoji backpack!!


Here is a picture of an emoji backpack. It's actually one you can buy but I'm showing you it so that it gives you an idea of what an emoji backpack looks like :)







Well thanks for reading how to make and emoji backpack! My August favourites post will be coming soon! See ya for now! Byeeeeee!

How to: Chocolate covered strawberries!

Today I will teach you how to make chocolate covered strawberries! This delicious snack is great for desserts, parties and they are perfect for summer! 
So lets start!

You will need:

  • Strawberries
  • chocolate (any type you like)
  • a fridge freezer
  • a knife
  • a spoon
  • a  microwaveable bowl
  • a tray
  • a microwave
  • a plate or bowl
Method:

  1. Take your strawberries and your knife and chop the stalk off of the strawberries, place the strawberries onto the tray once you have finished that, then put the tray to the side.
  2. Get your chocolate and break it into chunks. Put the chunks into your bowl and put it in the microwave. Set the microwave for about 1 minute, keep taking the bowl out and stirring it with your spoon but be careful because it will be hot!
  3. Once the chocolate has melted and it is runny and smooth it is time to put it on the strawberries! Take one strawberry and dip it in the chocolate about halfway along the strawberry, then place back on the tray. Repeat this with all of the other strawberries.
  4. After you have finished dipping in the strawberries it is time to let the chocolate harden. Put the tray into the freezer and leave to cool until the chocolate is hard.
  5. When the chocolate has hardened take the tray out of the freezer and put the yummy strawberries on a plate or in a bowl.
And you're done!! Hope you have enjoyed my tutorial see you soon! Bye!
