DIY with Madi

Hey DIYers, Now that its spring/summer, I bet you're going to want to wax your legs, and get a wax for "down there" at an expensive salon. But in this DIY, it'll save you a lot of money! That's why this DIY is perfect for you! It's DIY Hair Removing Wax is made of sugar! This wax is SO easy to make, and only requires 3 ingredients! Plus, like I said before, it's super cheap! Let's get started! What you'll need: - White cane sugar - A Lemon - Water Steps: 1. Pour the white cane sugar into a flat pan (the amount depends on what you want to shave. Eyebrows and lipstaches (lip mustaches) don't need much sugar, while legs. arms, and "down there" do. 2. Add 1 cup of water. 3. Pour in 1 tablespoon of lemon into the pan. 4. Stir everything together on high heat. 5. Once the mixture begins to bubble, turn onto low heat. You don't want too many bubbles! 6. As soon as the mixture reaches a golden color, turn off the heat, and...

Hey DIYers! Sorry for not posting sooner! But hopefully today's awesome DIY will make up for that... :-) Today's DIY is DIY Nail Polish! I often can't find a cheap nail polish color that I want, so this DIY is perfect for people like me, because you have unlimited number of colors you can make! Anyways, lets get started! What you'll need: - Clear Nail Polish (Like a Base or Top Coat!) - Colored Eyeshadow - Wooden Toothpick - OPTIONAL: Glitter Steps: 1. Take the brush out of the clear nail polish, and place it aside on a paper towel. 2. Using the toothpick, scrape some of the colored eyeshadow into the clear nail polish. 3. Using the same toothpick, lightly blend the eyeshadow into the clear nail polish. (Tip: Bend a piece of paper to create a little slide to make this step easier.) 4. Put the brush back into the nail polish bottle. 5. Shake the nail polish until the color from the eyeshadow colors the clear nail polish. 6. OPTIONAL: Add small glitter pi...

OMMMMMGGGGGG SORRY I'VE BEEN ABSENT FOR LIKE, FOREVER!!! Hi Diyers, Today's DIY is DIY is a really cute mug with a design made of nail polish! It's basically like doing watermarble nail art, except you don't paint your nails; you paint the cup! What You'll Need: - Nail Polishes of your choice (However you need a LOT of nail polish!) - Big tub/box that can hold water! - A white mug - A toothpick - Water - Top coat - Base coat - Paint brush - Tape (Optional) Steps: 1. Before doing anything, fully wash your mug. 2. Using the paintbrush, paint whatever spot you will be marbling with the base coat. (Optional: I recommend covering the mug with tape before you do this, so that you know exactly where the base coat is, and so that the design (later in the tutorial) doesn't get on places on the mug where you don't want it to be.) 3. While drying, fill the big tub/box 3/4 of water. 4. Drop several drops of nail polish on the surface of the water. Th...

Hey DIYers, today's post is DIY Slime! This DIY is so easy, and the slime is really fun to play with! Let's get started! What you'll need: - 4 fluid oz of Glue (I recommend using Elmer's school glue. See picture below to see what that looks like!). If you use a clear glue, you will get clear slime, and if you use a gel glue, you'll get this transparent-looking slime. - Borax 1tsp - 1 & 1/3 cups of Water 1cup (mixed with glue) 1/3 cup (mixed with Borax) - 2 small Bowls, 1 large one - A Spatula - Optional: glitter, food coloring, or other embellishments! Steps: 1. In one of the small bowls, mix 1tsp of Borax with 1/3 of the water. 2. In the other small bowl, mix 1 cup of water with your entire container of glue. 3. Pour both substances into the bigger bowl, and start stirring with the spatula immediately. You will start to notice that these two substances react to each other very quickly, and that in the bigger bowl will be this slime-like substance....

Hey DIYers! Today's DIY, I think, is one of my most favorite DIY ideas ever! It's a DIY phone case, but better yet, it can be customized... UNLIMITED TIMES! This DIY is PERFECT for people on a budget, because instead of getting multiple phone cases, you only need 1! What you'll need: - A clear phone case - Cardstock Paper - Pencil - Markers, Washi tape, glitter, stickers... Whatever you want to make your phone case look amazing! - Exacto Knife (Please get parent's permission!) Steps: 1. Using your pencil, trace the phone case, including the camera hole. 2. Use an exacto knife to cut the shape out! 3. Try to fit the paper in the case. Most likely it'll be a little too big because the outside of the case is bigger than the inside, so trim the paper accordingly to fit the inside of the phone case. 4. Once the paper fits inside the phone case, decorate it however you'd like! The only thing is that you CANNOT make the design 3D (like glitter glue that r...

Hi DIYers, how's your 2016 been so far?! Mine's has been okay. :) Today's DIY is 2 ways to color code your keys. Detecting which key goes to my house, my car, and my diary (hahaha) is really hard, so that's why color coding is the best option! Here are the two ways you can color code your keys! 1. Nail polish You can color code your keys by painting the tops of them (or the whole key if preferable) with nail polish! This is a fun way to color code because there are so many types of nail polish, like glitter, neon, matte, etc. 2. Tattoos! You can color code your keys by... putting temporary tattoos on them? YES! You read that right. Get a small, square tattoo. Place it on the head of the key, (or the whole key if preferable), and place a warm-wet washcloth on the tattoo. Leave it there for a few minutes, and then take off the washcloth. Then, remove the tattoo paper. Clean up excess tattoo GENTLY, using a toothpick. (It's like doing water marble nail art...
