DIY Fever

Lately I've been antsy (since my hair is twisted up and I can't play around with it) I decided to take up Home Decor. Which is a love of mine since I use to want to go to school for Interior Design. I wanted this Upholstered headboard for YEARS! and I found one I loved around December, but $300 for some fabric and plywood wasn't to my liking. So I decided to do it on my own. Now I'm in no mood to start a "How-To" blog too much work for my schedule. But I will def show you pictures of my process and the final look

Step 1 (Cut your plywood into whatever shape you choose)

Step 2 (Apply Foam. I used 2inch all the way down)

Step 3 (Batting)

Step 4 (Apply Fabric. I used Suede)

Step 5 (Sew the bottoms for "tufted" look)

Final Look (It's hung!)

Product Review

This is my reviews on all the many products I've used over the months.

Organic Root Stimulator Lock & Twist Gel: This product applies hold to hair while adding moisture without build up. And it does just that! I was slightly skepitcal with it being a lock gel, but when I applied it for my flexi rod set my hair was soft and very manageable. I didn't have any hard or flaky feel. I will def use this again. Where can you buy it? Sallys Beauty Supply- $4

Knot Today Kinky Curly Leave-In: Used to detangle and condition curly, wavy, or kniky hair. I'm not a guru of Leave-in's and detanglers, but this product doesn't work with as much ease as the other girls say it does. I have to spray sections with water then apply and then comb. But once my hair dries it feels like build up and dried out. Where can you buy it? Target- $12

One 'n Only Argan Oil Curl Creme: Enhances and defines curly hair, Eliminates frizz humidity resistent, leaves curls bouncy. It left my hair soft and my braid out defined and smells yummy too! Where can you buy it? Sallys Beauty Supply- $10

This really made my hair soft and gave me so much extra moisture. Where can you buy it? Sallys Beauty Supply- $7

Silken Child Leave-In Detangler: Smooths, eliminates frizz and adds shines and body to hair, provides nautral moisture balances and manageability. Instantly detangles. Love! Love! Love!
