When I Did Up My Room, I Plastered One Wall With Photos And Another With Old Newspaper, The Effect Is Quite Good. I Also Have A Large Shelf Where I Keep All The Stuff That Represents Me Or Is Close To Hy Heart. My Friend Is Roping All Of Our Friendship Group In To Help Her Doodle On Her Wall, We Are Allowed To Bring Stuff To Stick Up There To, No Matter What Shape Or Size. I Buy My Furniture No Matter What Colour It Is, Then I Paint It With The Paint Left Over From My Walls. I Dont Know If That Helped, A x

personalized flip-flops! You'll need:

-1 pair of basic, cheapy flip flops in the color of your choice
- 1-2 rolls of fuzzy fun yarn
--superglue

1.)Start by tying a double knot with your 1st yarn @ one side of the flip-flops straps. ad a tiny dot of sluerglue to the knot for strength.

2.) in a looping fashion, wrap the yarn continuously around the straps until you get to the other side. Pull yarn tight, so nothing hangs loose.

3.) when you get to the other side, make a double knot at the end & add another dot of superglue for strength. cut off exess yarn after the knot.

4.) To fill in bare spots: Do the same thing all over again, but start on the opposite side (EXAMPLE: If you started the wrapping on the left side & ended on the right, this time start on right & end on left.) You can use your 2nd choice of yarn if you'd like a "candy striping" effect.

5.) Do the above steps on the other flip-flop.

Here's an example of what a finished pair would look like:
