Creativity and coffee…two of life’s greatest gifts! We combine them for today’s blog post. Drinking out of a cute mug makes whatever you’re drinking taste so much better. So, today I am going to introduce you to the easiest DIY coffee mug ever. All you need is a plain white coffee mug, a Sharpie marker or two, a pencil, tape, and your favorite quote to make today/s DIY happen. These mugs make great gifts, or a great accessory for YOU!

Supplies:

• Sharpies
• Pencil
• Tape
• Design/Quote
• White Mug

I went online and designed a cute quote on Photoshop, then printed it off. You can even use Microsoft Word to type out what you want on your mug and then print it out! Cut around the quote with a scissors and then take a pencil and shade the back of the quote. Shade really well because you will be transferring the pencil onto the mug. Tape the quote to the mug, and then trace the letters, making sure to press firmly so the pencil on the back of the quote transfers onto the mug. Take the paper off of the mug and then fill in your outline that you transferred with Sharpie. Let your mug sit for 24 hours, then bake it at 350 for 15 minutes. DONE!! Now you have an adorable homemade mug that you can be totally proud of.

Ps. Never wash these in the dishwasher, it may cause the marker to wear off quicker. :)

 

Happy mug-making!

XOXO, Chels

4 Alternate Uses for Nail Polish

4 Alternate Uses for Nail Polish
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/chelsea-crockett-4-alternate-uses-for-nail-polish-.jpg

Nail polish isn’t just for nails anymore! There are lots of crafty gals out there that have come up with creative ways for us to customize everyday items and give them some extra glam using nothing more than nail polish! How many of us have bottles and bottles of nail polish shoved in a box in our closet? We only use them once or twice and then get tired of the color! Luckily crafty gals have come to the rescue and gave us some fun DIYs to put those lonely nail polish bottles out of their misery.

1. Decorate your phone charger: At sleepovers all of my friends and I have iPhones, so we always get our phone chargers mixed up! The solution? Make yours unique! Make a cute design with nail polish or cover it all in glitter polish, the options are endless!
2. Customize your phone case: Find a clear case on Amazon for a dollar or two or just paint over a case you already have! Search for tutorials on YouTube if you need some creative inspiration!
3. Color coordinate your keys: If you have a billion keys and it takes you 12 minutes just to find the right one, paint them with nail polish! It will help you distinguish them from each other.
4. Cover up car scratches: Have you accidentally bumped into something or scratched your car? Nail polish is a life saver. Find a shade that matches your car and touch it up a bit.

Now you can get some use out of all of those abandoned nail polishes that have been used once or twice and then forgotten! Let’s get to crafting.

XOXO, Chels

Are you looking for a fun snow day DIY or a simple craft to do with friends? Then look no further! These funfetti candles are fun to make AND fun to smell! If you want your room to smell like cupcakes, then this DIY is just what the doctor ordered!

What you will need:

• 2 16oz mason jars


• Candle wicks


• Hot glue gun
  
  Pencils or something similar to hold the wicks in place


• Tape


• 2-3 tbsp water


• 1-2 tbsp corn syrup


• A small paintbrush or cloth


• 1/2 cup colorful sprinkles


• 1 lb soy wax flakes


• Cupcake scented wax cubes

Hot glue the wick attachment to the bottom of the jar. In a bowl, mix the corn syrup and water. Coat the inside of the jar with the mixture and use a paintbrush to get all of the nooks and crannies. Slowly add sprinkles to the jar and roll them around to get it evenly coated. Lay a pencil across the top of the jar and tape the wick to it to keep it centered. In a double boiler, melt the wax flakes and a few of the scented cubes. Use a measuring cup with a spout to pour the wax into the jars. Make sure to pour the wax into the center of the jar to avoid messing the sprinkles up.

Viola! There you have it, two yummy-smelling candles that look good enough to eat!

XOXO, Chels
