Amazing!! AND, fast, easy and cheap!

Holy awesomeness!!!! This is the easiest, cheapest, fastest, hands-down most awesome Halloween idea EVER! I saw a reference for using B Complex vitamins in a drink to make it glow, so I tested it out before "game day". Wow! This stuff really works like magic. This bottle found at Walmart, contains 10 pills for a whopping 88 cents!!!! You can clearly tell in the picture above this juice is glowing! Note, there is a black light on the table behind it. So, we have learned that the "B Complex" vitamins are black light sensitive. *** UPDATE*** (October 2015) I've been experimenting with all the B vitamin options. B2 works the best, since it is the Riboflavin that will make it glow. The complex works well, too, but if you have the option go for the B2. This glowing water/ ice will not have a taste, so you can mix it into pretty much whatever you want! (And, a great side note on B2- it is amazing for helping treat migraines and headaches. So thankful I found ...

Part 1: DIY Headboard - Using Cardboard Instead of Wood

Image
Hey everyone! I'm super excited about this project. It worked out so well and I took tons of pictures along the way. Part 1 includes all the base work of cutting out your design through getting the headboard completely covered in batting. Part 2 to follow will include covering your headboard in fabric and adding any desired trim (mine will have brass nail heads).  I've seen quite a few tutorials on Pinterest showing how to use plywood to make a headboard. Let me tell you, this way is not dramatically different, and when you have an excess of cardboard is pretty alluring and way cheap! This headboard will be going in one of our guest rooms, so I don't intend on it having lots of wear and tear. I may back it with plywood in the future if I see problems, but for now I think it's pretty darn great how it is.  To keep it semi-simple, I'll show you the pictures of the steps with brief descriptions along the way.  First, have your cat draw up the plan...

Maleficent Costume DIY & Glowing Staff Tutorial

Image
Maleficent Costume DIY- Here are many pics of the Maleficent costume I made for Halloween! I must say, it's been one of my favorite costumes I've ever worn and made - that is after it was done. I drafted all the patterns, only using a basic skirt and turtleneck pattern to start with. Everything is an original design. Pics posted to inspire you to create a Maleficent costume all of your own! Happy Haunting!  Bodice & "cape" like sleeves are all 1 unit. The turtleneck bodice is built kind of like a dickie, it just velcro's closed in the center back, since it doesn't stretch. It's concealed by the feather / collar shawl. Detailed picture of my staff. Spray paint stick black, wrapped with cool trim I had on hand (hot glue) and then the top is covered with tons of feathers. It was glowing, but hard to tell in any pics. Large clear Christmas ornament that I painted cool, and then put glow stick inside of. See bottom of pictures for more detaile...
