DIY Sharpie Tie Dye Tees

Hi all! I hope you've had a good weekend. This week I uploaded a tutorial perfect for spring: how to do tie dye using Sharpies! This is literally one of my favorite DIYs ever, Click below to view...

One thing I forgot to mention...

How to Take Care of Your Finished Tie Dye Shirt

~ When you finish your shirt, throw it in the dryer on normal heat. This will help the Sharpies to settle into the shirt so that they don't wash away when you wash it. (CAUTION: Make sure your shirt is COMPLETELY DRY before putting it in the dryer. Rubbing alcohol is flammable.)

~ Machine wash cold with like colors. (But I recommend washing alone the first time. This may help prevent fading.)

~ Dry on regular heat.

~ Iron if necessary.

That's pretty much it. Once you wash your shirt for the first time you can pretty much treat it like you would treat any other shirt. The colors will most likely fade a little bit, but if you follow the steps above it will never fade completely. I have a Sharpie tie dye shirt that I made over a year ago and the colors and patterns are still plainly recognizable. :)

Fun at the Metropark

Hey Curly Wurlys!

Today my family spent the afternoon at our local Metropark. We had so much fun! Here's a little peek at what we did:

Sophie and Sadie's Photo Shoot + New Video

Hey guys!

I decided I needed a name for you so a couple of days ago I posted on Instagram asking what it should be. Someone commented "Curly Wurlys" and it was so funny it just seemed to stick. So let's start from the beginning:

Hey Curly Wurlys! :D

I like it. Anyways, today I had an awesome day. We decided to do a little winter photo shoot with Sophie and Sadie, and they looooved getting out of the house. Sadie was very fond in eating as much snow as she possibly could.

The pictures turned out gorgeous!

Full credits go to my mom - she took all of the pictures!

PS: If you want daily updates on what Sophie and Sadie are doing, follow them on Instagram: https://instagram.com/sophie.and.sadie/ (@sophie.and.sadie)

Also, new video today! I posted on Instagram a few days ago asking what I should for my next video. My skin care routine got the most votes, so here it is!

I decided to start uploading new videos on Sundays instead of Mondays from now one, by the way. Mondays are just too busy. :)

Thank You!!!!

Hello! I recently hit 8 subscribers on YouTube, 40 followers one Instagram, and 44 likes on Facebook, so I just wanted to say THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! Just thank you for everything. You guys are the best group of subscribers I could ask for. You've showed a ton of support, and I feel so glad when someone tells me they love my videos. I know I'm a small small channel but I feel like I put a lot of effort into my videos, and I'm proud of them. Even though I don't have a ton of subscribers and followers and whatnot, I'm super super grateful for the ones I do have. Thank you sooooooo much!

I put together a little video for you (it's just 15 seconds long) as an extra thank you:

PS: 10 subs on YouTube and I'll do a room tour!
