DIY: hippie waste basket

Hi lovelies!

Today is Monday... I normally hate Mondays, but today it is a festive day! So I didn't go to school! (whee)

Yesterday my mom bought me a little waste basket. (the other one got destroyed by Remi...) But it was just a white wastebasket, I looked around all my beloved materials and well, found some paint sprays!!

So, if you have ones too you can do one like this! It's really easy and the results are lovely.

-White waste basket

- Paint in spray

- Scissors

- Some tape 

1. Put some tape on the places you want to stay white 2. Paint the waste basket as you wish 3. Let it dry for about 30 to 60 minutes 4. Throw the first piece of trash to your waste basket! ♥

Thanks for reading! I hope you are having a lovely Monday.

DIY: Rainbow cake!

Hi lovely readers! 

Today I am feeling a bit better! So, my mother and I are going to do a little (colorful) cake for my sister's birthday. (We didn't do one during her day... November 7) But well, better late than never!

I know some of you do know this kind of cakes, and well I personally love them! I mean, what is better than cake? And if it is colorful? I guess this is the best cake I ever tried, it isn't too delicious in the normal way... but we are going to add a special frosting!! And it is also full of lovely colors! So... why not to try it?

You will need:
- Classic White cake mix
- Food colorants
- 1 cake mold (or cupcakes)

1. Make the cake cakes mixture 2. Add color to the mixture!

Well, this is my first part. You can read more about mixing colors at the end of the post.

Mixing colors

For mixing colors (for this cake or for anything) you should start little by little, maybe 2 drops at the beginning until you get the color you want! Some weird but lovely colors I adore to use are these ones:
- AQUA for this color you need: 2 drops of yellow  +  4 drops of blue

- FROSTED YELLOW for this color you need: 2 drops of yellow + 1 drop of red
- GREEN GRASS for this color you need: 3 drops of yellow + 1 drop of blue


Mixing colors is something fun! 
This is a little pallet for you:

Thanks for reading!!
Happy cooking.
