Musicovery BEACH1 Sea Salt Spray DIY A blissful day of summer for me is playing on the beach with sunkissed cheeks and wind-swept beach hair. Unfortunately, like I told you here last week- I am a beach girl without a beach. What if I were to tell you that you can capture that care-free wavy hair without spending a lot of money on a fancy Sea Salt spray or spending a day on the beach…although, I would take beach time any day. I have used several sea salt products out there but noticed they can been costly and at times left my hair slightly too crunchy and dry. So, I wanted to come up with just the right recipe for my hair. I decided to do a little research and experimented a little to come up with my perfect mixture for a sea salt spray. Here is what I used: 8 oz. of warm distilled water 1 teaspoon of cheap coconut conditioner 1 squirt of gel or hair smoothing cream 1 squirt of gloss dropsf 1 tablespoon of sea salt (the fine kind) 1/4 a teaspoon of alcohol (not necessary- mostly used as preservative) xo Cristi

You looked at me with fascination. “Don’t worry,” I said. “Oh,” you said. “Neither,” I said. “Ah,” you said. “All religions are right in their own way,” I said. You followed along as we strode through the void. “Nowhere in particular,” I said. “So what’s the point, then?” “Not so!” I stopped walking and took you by the shoulders. “You’ve been in a human for the last 48 years, so you haven’t stretched out yet and felt the rest of your immense consciousness. “How many times have I been reincarnated, then?” “No.

Backlit Canvas Art Do you have one project that you've been longing to do, but just haven't found the time yet? This is it for me. I call it my Backlit Canvas Art and the inspiration piece has been pinned in my "Crafts to try" Pinterest board for ages. My "pin"speration is an artist's piece made from metal that has hand cut flowers all over it. So I decided to give it a go and create my version. There are two main differences between the two: 1. 2. The idea of the canvas is that during the day (ie. with the Christmas light off) you have a beautiful sculpture while at night (you guessed it, with the Christmas lights on!) How about a tutorial?

I decided to go with the same flower theme as my inspiration piece. I randomly stamped various flowers across my cardstock.
