chip board (or cardboard would work too), silver spray paint, silver glass glitter (we used this stuff), glue, silver wire, glue gun, headband, silver ric rac, paint brush you don’t mind ruining with glue

1. Cut out stars out of chipboard. We used a craft cutter to do ours. We did 6 (3 front and back) larger stars (2.5″) and 14 smaller ones (7 stars total front and back) (1.5″).
2. With your paintbrush, glue the tops of the stars and sprinkle the glitter on top.
3. Cut out two pieces of silver wire, one at 10″ and the other at 12″.
4. Wrap ric rac around the headband and at the bottom of the wrapping insert and glue in the two pieces of wire.
5. Keep on wrapping the ric rac around the headband and repeat to the other side of the headband so the two pieces of wire are staggered in height.
6. Affix the stars to the wire starting with the middle stars and working out. Attach a star to the back as well.
7. Voila!

Now! Where are you going to be for New Year’s?!

 WATERCOLOR paintings 

 REALISTIC rose & leaves
Roses can be daunting to paint!  So many gorgeous petals, it’s tricky to know where to start!

I suggest you paint roses from three different angles.Try carrying out your own experiments with roses of different species and shapes — there are so many to choose from! Start with the center of the rose using a well-pigmented mix. Use the tip of the brush to paint little circles.Then rinse your brush well and squeeze it out. Using the tuft of the brush, paint broad petals around the center. Make sure you leave some negative spaces so that the rose appears to reflect the light.
