Decorating School Supplies Part 1

Pencil Cases
     I will start with pencil cases. If you have the kind of case that is fabric and when you drop it, it doesn't crack open and explode open flinging your supplies everywhere than this is what you should do: Take your black sharpie and draw some sort of design along the edges  of your case. If you need some ideas you could draw a green squiggly line around the side and then add ovals here and there with pointed edges.
    Now look! You have a vine wandering around you supplies box!!!
If you are girly like me you can add flowers to your vine. You could also draw a really long dragon or snake slithering along the edges.
    If you have a harder supplies box that is made of plastic or a hard material this is how you can decorate it: Sharpies rub off these types of cases so you have to be even more creative. I would recommend using duct tape or colored/patterned tape or stickers to decorate your box.
    I like using colored/patterned tape or duct tape the best but if you absolutely ADORE stickers that's what you should do. Okay now onto the backpacks:

Backpacks
Decorating my backpack is one of my favorite things  to do.
  You can attach fun key chains, pins, buttons, and even iron on your name! In my opinion you can never have to many key chains or buttons.
  Buttons are a fun thing to collect for your backpack! They are usually sold at about one dollar to three dollars so they're fun, cheap, and cute! Awesome right?!

Boyhood

Hello!!! Today's post is about the new movie Boyhood. Boyhood is movie that was filmed over the course of twelve years! This film is about family and growing up. When I saw this movie I had high hopes. But it was not as good as I imagined it. :( My favorite scene was the most action packed scene in the movie. It had mystery and you might even cry during this scene. [I won't tell you what it is about because that might ruin the movie for you] If you are interested in Boyhood you should see it. In my opinion it wasn't that good but you might think it is and a lot of people like it so I say give it a go!

Banana Slug
The banana slug is a slimy yellow slug that lives in the west, north of Santa Cruz, California. These small creatures eat leaves. A festival at the Russian River celebrates the Banana Slug. They have slug races and other exciting activities. Some Native Americans ate Banana Slugs. These animals can grow as long as thirty centimeters!

Best Houseplants


 
 Hello! This post and the ones that follow it are about the best houseplants! My #1 favorite house plant is probably the Aloe Vera plant. Aloe plants have a huge range of sizes. Mine, however is quite small. You're probably wondering why aloe plants are so amazing, I will tell you. If you don't know already; aloe vera is green slimy substance that heals/relieves pain from sun burns or any kind of burn. You can really you aloe for any visual things that hurts, stings, or itches on your skin. [I don't think it can hurt you at all either. Unless you eat it, then maybe...] This plant is very easy to care for because you only only have to water it maybe two or three times a week and it does the rest!!!I would recommend putting your aloe plant in the sunlight. It helps your plant produce more aloe therefor having thicker leaves. To find out how to get aloe from your aloe plant click the link: http://www.wikihow.com/Extract-Aloe-Vera
