DIY #2: Flower on the Wall


Bare walls are so, well, boring. So we thought of this D-I-Y craft project which is so easy to do, takes less time and looks pretty.



Things you will need:


  • Toilet paper roll - 3nos.
  • Paint/Spray Paint
  • Paint Brush
  • Adhesive Glue
  • Scissors


Directions:



  • Take a toilet paper roll and cut it into small sections of equal size.




  • Paint them using either water/oil paint or spray paint(recommended).

  • Take each segment and flatten it using your hand.
  • Stick the edges of any four segments together, thereby forming the below figure.


  • Keep filling the gap between these four segments using the other segments. Do this until u reach the desired size.

  • Stick it on your wall.
Note: Took us almost 2 hours. Have fun :)

Say Goodbye to Sweat Patches

Always wondered how to get rid of those ugly yellowish sweat patches/stains?
Sweat Patches are mainly caused by the presence of bacteria in your sweat or the presence of  aluminium salts in your antiperspirant, among various other reasons.

These sweat patches can be avoided by including a lot of liquid in your diet and avoiding deodorants with high content of Aluminum salts etc.

Well, here's a very easy remedy.
All that you would require are
  • a toothbrush
  •  baking soda 
  • water.

In a cup, dilute 4 tbsp of baking soda with 1/4 cup water. With the toothbrush, rub the mixture on the stain and let it air dry for half an hour to an hour.
After that, wash the clothes as usual.

You will not believe it but your sweat patches will disappear.

NOTE:
Baking Soda and Baking Powder is not the same. Make sure that you use BAKING SODA!
Baking Soda in general is really good for washing clothes, especially your precious whites.
Baking Soda can be used for neutralizing acid, removing crayon stains and odor, cleaning the washing machine and can be even used as a fabric softener.
