flower pen( I know I am just into flowers)

These are very cute and easy pens!

•Pen
•Silk or Plastic Flower with Stem
•Green Floral Tape
•Scissors
Instructions:
Hold the flower next to the pen and clip the flower stem so it is about 2-inches up from the tip of the pen. The flower should sit on the end of the pen. Remove and leaves. While holding the flower stem tightly against the pen, wrap the entire length of the pen with floral tape. This will secure the pen and flower together. With the floral tape you do not need tape or glue!

I have tried to make these so many times using different directions but this is the one that I have found works the best!

What you'll need:
-Pastel colored tissue paper
-Chenille stem
-Scissors
-Ruler


How to make it:Cut tissue paper into rectangles of desired size (5"x7" is the size pictured - see picture 1
Stack around 15 pieces of tissue paper. Use the same color or different colors. If you want to use a smaller number of pieces of tissue paper, flower will not be as full.
Accordion pleat the tissue paper working from the long side.
Wind one end of the chenille stem around the middle of the accordion pleated tissue paper.-see picture 2.
Trim the ends of each side to give the pedals a unique look. Trimming the ends into a point (like a triangle), or a bump (like a half circle) will look very pretty.
Gently separate each layer-see picture 3 pulling upwards toward the middle of the flower. (See photo). Do the second side.-see picture 4.
Let the children make a couple of flowers and put them in a May Basket. Early on the morning of May 1st hang on your mother's door, a neighbor's door, a friend's, or anyone special to you. Remember, it's supposed to be a surprise!


Tips:If you want to give your flowers some leaves, include a stack of green tissue paper folded accordion style during step 3. Trim the green paper into a shape of a leaf.

Unknown Hairstyle

I don't know the name of this hairstyle but I will try to explain it the best that I can! In this hairstyle it is supposed to be like a headband hairstyle.

model: Allyssa

what you will need...
water bottle
bobby pins
hairbrush


step...

1. start off by spraying your hair with the water bottle and you can add hair products if you want to.make sure to brush it.
2. next take the hair right by the front of your hair and clipping it to the top of your head
3. Then take the hair right by your ears and braid it on each side( take a small section this will be the headband so you can decide if you want it to have it big or small).
4. Take a bobby pin(use as many as you need) and pin the two braids that you have on each side to the top of your head so it looks like a headband
5. Now you take all you hair ,including the hair I told you to clip up. You can put it in a braid(as shown above) high bun or a low ponytail.

This is one of my favorite hairstyles it can be more formal or less formal!
