How to do A waterfall braid

Prepare hair for braiding. Hair braids best when it is damp, clean and fully brushed before braiding.
  • Wash and condition your hair. Remove excess water using a clean towel. The braiding will be most successful if you don’t fully dry your hair.
Brush out any knots with a wide tooth comb. Brush underneath the nape of the neck to ensure no knots remain.

Part your hair in the middle.

Section off the top third of your hair. Begin sectioning from your forehead and part. Use the wide tooth comb to section off your hair and hold the section in one hand.
  • Divide the section into three parts                                                                                 Braid the hair toward the back of your head in a French braid style. After the first pass, begin working outside pieces of hair into your braid so that you're essentially French braiding your hair.                                                                                    Create that “waterfall” look. When you’ve reached the last part of the first braid section, drop the last strand of hair. This will make it look like the hair is cascading from the braid.                                                                                                                         Pick up a new strand of hair located next to the strand you’ve dropped to replace that strand. Continue the waterfall look by picking the next section of hair located beside the hair section you dropped and continue braiding.
    • Continue braiding by cascading the braid toward the middle of the head. Repeat the initial step by continuing the braid and then dropping the last section of hair, but then picking up a section next to the dropped hair section.                                                                                                                  Secure the braid with bobby pins if needed. Keep bobby pins on hand to provide additional support or to keep errant hair in place.                               Braid the remaining “tail” until you run out of hair                                      Decorate. Finish with a small hair tie or clip that matches your outfit. Do not use an office rubber band as it will get stuck in your hair and damage it, but orthodontic rubber bands work well. Depending on the event, you could either integrate a matching clip or hide the hair tie into your tail by choosing a tie in the same color as your hair.

DIY Fairy Jar “HOW TO” Tutorial

DIY Fairy Jar Tutorial Craft
Items:
  • Mason jar(s)
  • Glitter (diamond glitter works best)
  • Glow stick(s)
  • Serrated knife
DIY Fairy Jar tutorial, Capture a fairy!
Step 1: Decide which color glitter and glow stick you are going to want in the jar.
Step 2: Cut open the bottom of the glow stick on a towel (as not to get the fluid all over everything; you could also elevate the glow stick on the lid of the jar).
Step 3: Dump the contents of the glow stick into the jar. BE CAREFUL! To my surprise, I found that the inside of the glow stick is in fact, glass.
Step 4: Once you’ve done that, grab the glitter and dump it into the jar on top of the glow stick contents. The amount of glitter is going to depend on the size of your jar, how sparklie you want it, and what glitter you decide on. I used about half of one glitter container I bought. If the glass from the glow stick did not brake upon dumping it into the jar, you can break it now by hitting it with the end of the knife.
Step 5: You can now put the lid on!! Make sure it is on very tight, and shake it up like crazy.
Now that you now know how to make a “fairy in a jar”, you can use them to decorate your childs room at night, a deck outside, the yard, your bathroom when you’re taking that candle lit bath, or whatever else you may think up!
P.S. They only last about 8 hours.
