Paper Dahlia Wreath

This is by far my favorite creation. 

Finished Product: 












I'm in love, the thing is huge so its hard to find a place for it. 

Step by Step!

Depending on the size you want it, cut squares, I used 6in x 6in. I also used several colors to give it an ombre effect. 
Cut a cardboard circle, again the bigger your circle the bigger you need your squares. I used hot glue to make it faster. 
Size wise, your first layer of squares will hang on the cardboard by 1.5 or 2 inches. 
Like this:








This is row 1 and 2, which we will get to. 
Your first row if you have multiple colors needs to be spaced apart to allow room for the second row. 








(If you are wondering about the interesting photos, I videoed this but lost parts, and didn't feel like editing 40mins of bad footage.) 

Now, add your layers, either changing colors or staying with the same. 








Glue layer by layer, eventually they will stack at a higher angle. 

















Keep stacking until you get to the center, this is when you almost have to bend the ends of the cone to stand upright. You will have one in the exact center.

Canvas and Elephant Crafts

While I was on my little hiatus I made like 5 videos but most of them got deleted or I lost them. 

So here are some pictures of some of the things I made. 

Redo Elephant 










Elephant String Art (I'm not a fan of this one)











Canvas and Hot Glue Art (This has more detail in person) 












Canvas and Glitter Art









Rolling Pin and Paint Canvas







So I put some stencils on this canvas and paint and just rolled over it using a rolling pin. Yeah, it was not a good idea but my rolling pin has a really cool design on it now.

Breakfast Waffle

Lets agree to ignore my absence in the last 5 months. 

College is hard! 

So here is a recipe for the perfect college concoction. 

Breakfast Waffle

Eggs
Taylor ham
Hash-browns
Shredded Cheese
Waffle iron 

Mix as much as you want together

Keep it kinda as a mix so that the eggs don't run over the sides of the waffle iron. 

Heat up and grease the iron, butter or olive oil work. 
Follow the cooking instructions for your waffle iron. 
It is absolutely amazing!

Best Wishes
