How to Cut Costs While Paint Pouring
I started paint pouring about a month ago, and oh my, was it expensive. I spent way too much money when I started and it wasn't even on good quality materials. They were simply just overpriced. Now I could probably make a paint pouring canvas for just 20$ in materials...meaning I could sell it for as cheap as $30 if I wanted.
Hacks to Help You Stop Stressing About Your Future and Start Living
Even at the age of 23, I am constantly thinking about the future. I am always trying to plan way ahead and not think about what I am going to do the next day.

The more I think about the future, the more it was stressing me out. It stressed me out to the point of worrying and from then, I knew that I needed to calm down.

Cosplay DIY: Harley Quinn Mallet
In March 2016, I started on my very first cosplay project: a Harley Quinn mallet. I was a cosplayer for about two years at the time and never made any props before. A month earlier, my customized Harley Quinn costume had arrived to me in the mail and wanted to make a prop to go with the cosplay that I planned to go as for a convention that was coming up in May of that year. Other than that, I'm going to share with everyone step-by-step instructions on how I constructed my mallet. Whenever I plan my cosplays or work on a project, I don't focus on perfection. All I can do is be proud of the effort and hard work I put into it. With that said, I hope you're ready to learn how to make a Harley Quinn mallet.

If you’re anything like me then you know the struggle of trying to throw together a professional look in only 30 short minutes after hitting the snooze button a few too many times. Before I perfected my routine, I was notorious for running out the door unshowered, hair in a bun, with no makeup (and I would still be a few minutes late every time LOL). After realizing I needed to get this under control, I have perfected a few time saving tips and tricks that have made my morning routine a breeze.

Cosplay DIY: Punk Rock Superman Vest
Greetings to everyone out there. I'm going to provide you step-by-step instructions on how to create a Punk Rock Superman vest. Punk Rock Superman was my second cosplay mashup I have done as a cosplayer. Last year at GlitchCon, I went as this character on the second day of the convention and also in the cosplay contest. Plus, I had a photo shoot that morning and my photographer took some breathtaking shots. As far as this project, it took me over two months to complete the vest. Due to my work schedule at the time, I've worked on it at least two to three hours a night. Other than that, here's a list of items you'll need to customize the vest:

10 Reasons You Are Exhausted and Easy Hacks to Increase Energy
In the past, my days were totally draining me out from exhaustion. It wasn't from overworking or lack of sleep, because I'd wake up in the morning tired, eat meals tired, and I couldn't even open my eyes when socializing with friends. I didn't know what I was doing wrong that was constantly making me feel like I only got three hours of sleep every day. Coffee wasn't helping me at that point, even if I asked for double espresso shots.
Rachel BlanchardPublished 6 years ago in LifehackThe Natural Novice: First Forays Into a Gardener's World
I should begin with a disclaimer. I’m not a gardener. Nor do I pretend to be. But I’ve got the bug and I’m not talking about the type of bug that decimates your dahlias. I’m talking about the relentless itching desire to get out into the garden to plant things, nurture saplings, or launch a new offensive against the "Stinky Bob" infesting the borders. I’m talking about that frustrated mixed feeling you get when it rains, because your plants are getting watered but you just can’t get outside to mow the grass. I’m no expert. But I’m learning, often by making some pretty stupid mistakes but more often by talking to others who already have a wealth of knowledge and a lifetime of past experience. That's what I’m calling all the mistakes I’ve made by the way: experience.
