DIY: Blackhead removal

I hope I'm not the only one with skin that dries up like a desert during winter. Ironic, Isn't it?
And with a bazillion blackheads suddenly appearing all over the T-zone.

As I am still wearing some sort of mummy mask smelling like egg whites, 
I don't really know if this will actually work for me.
I have read numerous of blog posts about this blackhead removal
and it seems everyone is working it out somehow.
So let's get on with it
...
How to remove blackheads
Egg white blackhead removal

Need: 
Egg white(s)
Toilet paper





mostly hair...

I think you could get a better result if you place your head above some steam coming from boiling water.
Just  don't sit there for a long time, you're supposed to open pores, not steam boil your face.

I don't know If I will try this again.
Do you have any better ideas?

HOW TO: Clean the makeup bag after a horrible disaster

This happens to everyone. 
It's a vicious life cycle.
I lost the compact powder 2 cm above the bench.
.
You know the feeling.. The ice cold lightning that strikes you the minute you realize what you actually dropped out of your hand.
The eight hours you watch your compact powder fall from your finger tips to the table or floor,
where you are in no position to move to stop this horrific accident from happening.
No, you just have to watch it happen, every time.
Brain? 

The mess inside the makeup bag was an easy-fix.
I didn't wan't to clean the whole bag, 
just the part where the compact powder had been handing out free powder.


Cleansing wipe inside the bag,
Aaaaand, it's clean! 

I'm going to fix the compact powder later today, 
I forgot to make a DIY. 
But just to assure you, this isn't the last time I lose anything.

Hex nut bracelet // mutter armbånd

I made the "famous" hex nut bracelet today. 
The hardest part was trying to find small enough hex nuts at my local hardware store. 
The tutorials I used can be found @pinterest.


This is how the two pieces I made turned out.

Woven Map Basket.

I stumbled thru some craft sites when I stumbled on this.

It's a woven basket made of a useless map, 
but not so useless it can't be done anything with.





..Tomorrow I'll check out the storage at the school, maybe I find something useful!

My first lamp. //Norwegian text.




Jeg la noen skiver med tre i ett vannbad, deretter tok jeg litt tykt papir og rullet det sammen, surret litt fisketråd og noe annet dritt rundt, så det holdt den runde formen!
Så lot jeg den stå og tørke i ca. èn uke.




Så var det til selve lampen!

Skar ut en runding av papp, så lagde jeg 4 hull i pappen ved hjelp av en strikkepinne.
Gikk utenfor og fant ett halvdævt tre, som jeg rev av greinene til (vet det er litt brutalt, men naturen får lide bittelitt for skjønnheten..) Tok den fantastiske oppfinnelsen ved navn Limpistol, og limte greinene fast til papp platen. 


I hullene jeg lagde tidligere festet jeg garntråd, med skjerfholdere nederst. De spraya jeg gull og sølv på så det skulle få ett litt mer naturlig utseende og ikke bare gjennomsiktige rundinger.. Og ja, det ser naturlig ut om du ike sprayer for mye av en farge. mine ble litt for sølv, men fuckit.


Da dette var gjort tok jeg treplaten som hadde ligget en uke og blitt "formet" over uka.. og festet rundt papp platen med superlim, så den ble skjult, Og da ble min lampe, en Lampe!
