Rurii Talks #1

Hello sweetiepies ~(^-^)~

I wish you happy easter and a lot of fun searching your sweets and eggs! ♥

These are mine eastereggs I painted a few hours ago... If you don't use too much water you can simply brush it with watercolours. Only the 'background' is made with the regular easteregg-colours. Hah I love painting~♥

I also bought a new phone (a Samsung Galaxy S4 - my old one broke ; _; ) on thursday and decorated it with "CocoPPa", a really common and cute app. Its for free, thats why I love it so much. You simply have to create an account or log in with Facebook and you can download as much as you want. Even though the most icons and wallpapers are in a kawaii / pastel / cute style, they also got different styles and colour shemes. Simply check it out if you want to cutify your phone. ♥ 
Thats how mine turned out:

Just a short notice:

In the past weeks I'm intensively working on HTML for my blog (with the help of a friend ヽ(゜∇゜)ノ ) - I'm so curious about how it is going to look in the end! We write a completely new website, without using any templates from blogspot or whatever. Probably it's going to be ready in a few weeks, so stay tuned! ;3

Soooo, thats it for the news. Have a great easter and enjoy being with your family or friends or simply alone. Aaaand eat much chocolate (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

-Love, Ruriichan

DIY Glitter Candles

Hello honeys!

I'm currently decorating my room, and saw some plain white candles in my Mom's room. I grabbed them and thought: How can I make them look cute? It surely had to contain glitter, bows and stuff like that, so I collected everything I had and .. yeah.. mixed it up :D Let me explain how I did it!

What you need:

Candles

Sprinkle Glitter

Glue

Lace

Cord or smth to make a bow

Little Brush

Pad

I bought the sprinkle glitter and the lace from a german discount shop, but you can also buy it from eBay etc. ♥

Cut the lace in the right size. I tried to add the glitter before, and after I glued the lace on, but I'd recommend that you glue it on AFTER you created the glitter layer. Soo ~

Put an Underlayment beneath first, to avoid the table looking like the candle you are creating. Unless you want your facial expression want to become like щ(ಠ益ಠщ) ~ Grab the brush and paint some glue in a not too thick and not too thin layer over the area you want to have glittered. Then take the candle in one hand, and carefully strew the glitter over the glued area. Shake the candle from time to time, to make spare glitter fall off.  You can put the fallen glitter back into your glitter can and simply strew it onto the candle a second time.

Repeat this strew n' shake process as often as you want, to create an equally glittering candle. If you want to make a little bow from the cord, I recommend fixing the tied or bound bow with glue and then drying it for a while. 

After that, simply glue the lace // cords, or whatever you want, to the candle.

And you're done ∩(︶▽︶)∩ ♥

Thats what my candles look like. I think they are much prettier in real, but whatever, I still luv them. ♥

There are so many candle designs, you can choose from... I'm probably going to make a full-covered glitter rainbow candle when I find another one at home (ΘεΘ;)

Sooo, I really hope you enjoyed my little DIY candle guide ♥ Let me immediately know when you have created your own candle. I'm really interested! 

-Much love, Ruriichan ●ᴥ●
