Chocolate Peanut Butter Pretzel Sandwiches

These are so easy to make and they taste so yummy. They are a great way to snazzy up those boring pretzels in kids lunches for school or for parties.

Ingredients:

Pretzels

Peanut Butter

Almond Bark( regular chocolate one)

Take peanut butter and spread it on a pretzel. Put another one on top to make a sandwich. Make as many of these as you want. Then put the almond bark in a microwaveable bowl and melt it, stirring until there are no chunks. Take the sandwiches and dip them into the chocolate.

Homemade Pore Cleaning Strips

This is a fast, easy and cheap way to get the blackheads off your nose. I tried it and it was amazing the results were incredible. I'm going to start doing this every few days!

1 teaspoon of gelatin

1 teaspoon of milk

Mix them together and put it in the microwave for about 10 seconds or until it turns into a thick paste.

Use a q-tip or an old make-up brush and apply it to your nose. Make sure it is not to hot or you will burn your nose. Leave it on for 10 minutes and then peel it off. It smells terrible but it does work.

DIY Mircodermabrasion Mask Tutorial

This mask is amazing I made it this morning. My face feels so soft and clean. I've never bought anything in the store that has made my skin feel this nice.

Use 3 parts baking soda to 1 part water.

I used tablespoons, it was a bit too much but i rather have to much then not enough.

Rub it on your skin in a circular motion and rinse. :)

How to Get Soft Feet Tutorial

This is a quick way to get super soft feet. Do it once a week and you'll have soft feet all summer long.

Take 2 cups of Epsom salt and put it in a bucket of warm water. Soak your feet for 20-30 minutes or until the water gets too cool to be comfortable. Take an old toothbrush and scrub your feet where the dry skin is located and it will come right off.

Jellyfish in a Bottle Craft Tutorial

This craft is perfect for any kid no matter of the age.
I'm 23 and I think it is a really cool idea.

You'll need:

Plastic shopping bag

Water bottle

Blue food coloring

Thread

scissors

First, cut off the handles and the bottom of the bag. Then cut the sides of the bag so you have 2 pieces. We will only be needing 1 piece. 

Take the half and make a little balloon in the middle and tie it with the thread. Don't tie it too tight as we will need to put some water in it later on.

Next cut the longer part into a bunch of thin tentacles. You can cut some of it off if it looks like it will be too bulky for your water bottle.

Next turn your jellyfish over and pour a little bit of water into the head. Make sure you leave some air in there or it won't float.

Put your jellyfish in your water bottle.

Add a few drops of blue food dye. Not too much otherwise you won't be able to see through the water.

And you are done. Let the kids flip it over and see their jellyfish float. I know when Aubree gets older I will definitely be making this with her :)

Upcycled Tshirt Racer Back Tank Tutorial

I've made a few of these already and I must say I am in love with them. They are comfortable and it's not to much fabric for when you're working out. It's best if you use a shirt thats a size to big for you otherwise it might get a little tight.

Get an old tshirt and cut the sleeves off at the seams.

Next, cut off the collar.

Then cut about 1.5 inches farther down into the collar. When you get halfway fold it over so you can use it as a template so the collar of the tank top won't be crooked.

Start about an inch away from the edge of the collar and cut all the way to the bottom of the arm holes.

Now cut about a 2 inch strip from one of the sleeves and cut it so it lays flat.

Bunch up the back of the tshirt and wrap the strip around it twice and tie a knot.

You can twist the strip so that the know is in the inside.

Now you have an awesome new tank top :)

Upcycled Tshirt Headband Tutorial

Now that you have that left over fabric from making the work out racer tank, why don't you make a matching hairband to keep sweaty hair out of your face.

Cut the seam of the end of the sleeve. Then cut about 9 strips at about half an inch to an inch wide.

Pull on the strips to make them curl up.

Take one of the strips and wrap it around the other strips and tuck the ends into the knot.

This is what it will look like when you are done.

Upcycled Tshirt Dog Rope Toy Tutorial

This is a cute idea if you have extra scraps of fabric from making scarves out of old tshirts or if you have random pieces of fabric lying around.

First I cut 6 strips about 2 feet long from the body of the shirt and braided them together. Repeat this 2 more times for a total of 3 braids.

Then simply braid all three braids together and tie knots at both ends. Make sure to cut of the extra fabric left at both ends after you knot it.

My dog loved this! It's a cheap toy that's good for puppies that like to chew on everything.

Upcycled T-shirt Scarf Tutorial

This is a quick and easy project you can do with any old shirt you might have

Get an old t shirt - if you want it to wrap around your neck you will need at least an extra large.

First cut the bottom hem off

Then cut 8-10 strips from the body of the shirt. It doesnt matter about the width you could make them all different sizes to vary the strips in the scarf.

Then pull on the ends so they curl up, then line up the hems

Next take one of the strips and wrap it around the hems and tuck the ends in

Now all you have to do is put it around your neck & you are done :)
