DIY Crafty Cup Sleeves

          To make this stylish Jacket for your everyday Starbucks trip you're gonna need a cardboard cup sleeve (Free! You can get one at any Starbucks, Caribou, or Latte Land), any pattern of duck tape (You can find printed duck tape at Walmart, any craft stores,  or any hardware stores for 5 bucks or less. the Chevron printed tape I have I got at Walmart for 2 dollars and 49 cents), and scissors. 

         First, place your duck tape on your cup sleeve wrapping the end underneath onto the other side of the cup sleeve. Make sure the tape is on vertically.

       Then cut the duck tape about a centimeter away from the top of the sleeve so that u can press down the top edge.

     Press down the excess duck tape tightly underneath. By the way you should be putting the tape on the side with the logo that doesn't touch the cup when it is on.

      Your cup jacket should look like this so far! If not reread the previous steps.Then put you next row of tape on the same way as above lining up with the fist row. Repeat steps above until the sleeve is completely covered in tape. 

       Your cup sleeve should look somewhat like this! Hope you enjoy it and if this was difficult for you please write me a comment and I will try to make this easier! Thank you for reading!

    Now your ready to go! Head out to your favorite coffee place to try it out. For your information different coffee places might have different sizes of sleeves. I recommend using the same coffee sleeve as the coffee place. For example use the Starbucks coffee sleeve for your Starbucks drink. I love you guys and hope you enjoy!

Three Steps to Success when it comes to Painting Trim

 

Painting trim is a Pain! I know because I have! So I'll give you some easy steps to succsess!

 

1. Sand all your trim before you start painting. You can use regular sand paper, sanding blocks, or other sanding materials. Make sure you get in all the crevices!

 

2. Use de-glosser! You can find this at Lowes, Home Depot, or any other hardware store. Put the deglosser straight on the trim that's already been sanded.

 

3. Add Floe-Trol to your paint before putting it on! Floe-Trol comes in an orange bottle and you can also find it at most hardware stores.

 

    Once you have done all these things you are ready to paint! Good luck and comment at the bottom to tell me how it worked!

Well, wish me good luck in my third year of dancing!

Verse1

This ain't no fairy tale song just a broken love, just a broken love

Come be my frog and I'll be your princess will kiss and will fall in love

Come slip on my slipper prince charming my prince charming

You can be my beast and you will fight for me and make me yours

Please kiss me cause I'm in a deep sleep with out you

Instead when I let my hair fall out the side of the castle your not there to climb it

Instead your not my prince charming, prince charming


Chorus

Renovations at the Lake House

                                      

 Before

 After

     Every summer we take a trip to my grandma's lake house in Cook, Minniesota. We always seem to have a projet and this years project was to paint the arm rests and seat of an old bench my grandma had! Is'nt it awesome! The red was just the right pop of color on this plain, old bench. If you need a pop of color on the inside or the outside of your houses just grab a paint brush and paint and get started! It's as easy as that! Write me a comment on things you've painted to add a spark or ideas you want me to try!



Hello Kitty!!!!!!

     The other day when my mom and I were down at The Plaza, a shopping center in Kansas City, we had to go to my favorite store, Zoom! It's like a toy store with a bunch of other cool one of a kind things! It's bright and colorful all around, my favorite! To the right of everything was a white, pink, and red blob and I knew it had to be hello kitty! I went running past my mom and striaght towards the four sided block. I was in awe as I walked aroung about 10 times looking at all the stuff! It was amazing! So anytime you're down in KC go to Zoom!!!!!



New Shoes

I got these teriffic shoes from Stein Mart for only 20 bucks! These knock-off toms are gonna serve me well! The're comfy and stylish! There not to cold or hot so any season should be appropiate to wear them!!!!!!

Happy Father's Day

I Love You Dad! I couldn't ask for more. You're the best dad God could ever give me!

Your Daughter,
Judiann
