September Favourites – Sorry

I know it only seems like a week ago when I did my August Favourites but time has flown by so fast… And now it is October. I’m going to be honest… I haven’t really discovered anything new so for my October Favourites I will add in the one thing I came up with for September Favourites.

Thanks,

DIY Glitter Pens!

I made these a few months ago and I thought they were brilliant.

You may want to do this on a surface you don’t mind getting messy because it will!

Equipment:

– Glue     -Glitter      -A tap       -Some Biro Pens (which you can easily take apart)

-A glass    -A spoon

Method:

– Remove the inside of the pen like this;

– Then fill your glass with a few spoons of water;

– After that add a couple of spoons of glue and mix it up until it looks quite milky;

– Pour some of the glue mixture into the empty pen tube; Be careful as this is a lot more fiddly than it looks, you may want to use a jug with a thin spout to help. When you have poured it in it should look like this;

– To make them glittery though, pour some glitter into the pen until it is 3 quarters full. Then put your fingers over the holes and shake the pen until the glitter has covered the entire pen like this;

I used purple and gold glitter but a lot of other colours or even more than 2 types of glitter.

I hope you enjoy making these pens!

August Favourites

1. Two Faced Makeup       

I don’t actually have any Two Faced Makeup but I’m putting it on my favourites as I love seeing it in shops. I love how it smells like peaches! It is stocked in John Lewis.

2. Primark – In General

I just love 70% of the items in Primark. This month especially the Harry Potter range which has never been in the shops before! The throws are also so comfy and fluffy!

3. Lemonade           

This one sounds kind of weird but I would usually have diet coke as a summer drink but this year I have loved lemonade!

4. Ben and Jerry’s Icecream

This ice cream is just heaven! I love all the flavours but I would recommend the cookie dough flavour!
