Project DIY:
September Autumn in New York and
November Joan of Arc. Both months were fantastic, but my favorite month was the Joan of Arc collection. The finished bracelet and necklace were exquisite.

This is a really unique piece and it looks like 2 super heroes flying through the city.
From the card “Canvasland canvases are handmade in Austin, Tx and are ready to prime. 100% hemp canvas and sustainability sources for the environmentally friendly artist who want the best.”
I am going to let L use this small piece of canvas to make a tiny masterpiece.
From the card “Halfway between a spray and a souvenir, the MICRO from Montana Colors is the smallest spray can on the market. Available in black and ready to join you wherever you go.”
This is the cutest little can of spray paint. I am going to have to find something to paint now.
From the card: “A medium to be mixes with oil pants that is solvent free and gives colors more flow and transparency. Solvent Free Gel has a moderately fast drying rate and increases gloss. It can be also be used to clean your brushes during painting sessions. Use Gamsol or soap and water to clean when finished.”
I am not an artist, but this may help me bring out my inner Bob Ross.
Primo Elite Grande Pencil: From the card “A hex shaped thick core ultra black pencil. Handcrafted with rich, organic blacks to achieve intense linear markings and tonal values.
Koh I Norr Tri Tone Pencil: From the card “Tri tone pencil create rich drawings with depth. Every pencil contains 3 shades and draws a multi colored line. Sold in sets of 12 or 24
These are nice pencils and L will enjoy drawing with them, or I may give them to my artist friend.

November and really loved how well they catered the box to my preferences. When you sign up for

Wantable included a card, stating you can share your pictures on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram and they may be used by
Wantable
This is full of pink and white blossoms, adorned by holographic and iridescent glitters. It is free from Formaldehyde, Toluene, and Dibutyl Phthalate and none of the ingredients have been tested on animals.
These leave a nice color on your lips and moisturize them very well. You can apply this with a make up brush, or just with your finger. I love lip gloss and this is a fun pink color.
I really like Starlooks makeup. This is a great color. This can be used as a over all color or just to accentuate the crease.
This brush can be used to apply foundation, concealer or primer. I have never used a brush for foundation/concealer, but I am excited to try it.
This is supposed to reduce fine lines and wrinkles by using two peptide ingredients. This also helps to reduce dark circles and puffiness. This looks like a great cream for my skin.
