Now They're 16 Going on 17. . .

Turning 16 is the start of a magical time in a young girl's life.
To celebrate the 16th birthdays of two of our Mia Maids,
I thought it'd be fun to try our hand at some DIY magic wands.


Turns out they were super fun AND super easy.

We tried a couple of different tutorials.
This picture shows the use of a wooden dowel rod on top and (get this!) a rolled up sheet of 8x11 printer paper on the bottom:

If you'd like to try to make your own magic wand, you can find more info at the following websites:



HideousDreadfulStinky!
(this one calls for bamboo but you can use cheapo dowel rods)



You can also check out youtube if you need to see the tutorial documented visually.
