No Heat Curl

I decided to try out a no heat curl last night.
My hair is poker straight, flat, really fine and refuses to hold any kind of style at all. If I use a curling iron the curls will fall out within 3 hours no matter what products I use on it.
So I thought the no heat curl would be a bit of a long shot, but any chance to have lovely curly hair is one I'm going to jump on straight away!!!
I found the idea on The Papermama's blog:

The socks were SUPER uncomfortable to sleep on. But I think the result was worth it! For me anyway.
It's been 2 hours and the curls still look the same as when I first took the socks out! Plus it gives me way more volume! I love it!
I might try doing it with some cut up tights next time though......they might be more comfortable for sleeping.
Anyway, heres what the result looked like:

So much better than my normal boring hair!

Here's the video tutorial too:



Yay for socks!!
I think this might start being a nightly ritual for me. Finally something that works on my hair!

I suck at blogging.

I really, really do.
I need to start updating this thing regularly again. As of now.

A few new things have gone up in my shop recently:

A little gingerbread man brooch.

Silly but cute octopus earmuffs

Red earmuff monsters

Plus a few other bits and pieces :)

Hopefully some more exciting things will be popping up over the next few days too! As well as some more christmas items.

orange forest monster

Theres a new arrival in my shop today!
This super cute and super fluffy, orange forest monster!

I found him wandering around in a forest. He was worried that something scary would jump out and get him because he couldn't camouflage himself well enough.
So now he's looking for a lovely new home with someone who will protect him from all things scary!

IM BACK!!!

With some new earmuffs as well:

Sugar Skulls earmuffs!!!

I'll be adding lots and lots of new things to my shops and posting about them here too, so make sure you keep an eye out!

I'm very excited! ^_^
