Hey babes!
It’s time again for another #B2SwithRoxy video. Last week’s video got sooooo much love from you- especially with the free printables I made for you to download. Let’s just say I was definitely inspired to make lots more.
In this video, I’ll be showing you how I made pretty pencils with gold quotes and blotting sheets. Yea- blotting sheets because I NEED THESE LIKE NO OTHER. Seriously, my skin can’t control itself and it’s always always oiling out. Usually I would run in a bathroom for a tissue but I decided to make my own so I can carry in my bag. And ofc share it with you.
P.S. if you made anything be sure to tweet me or instagram me a pic! Enjoy the video and don’t forget to subscribe.
I always see really beautiful gold stamped pencils but those could be kinda pricey. And tbh, I won’t carry those to school anyway because I always always end up losing them. Does that happen to you with stationery?!
Anywayyyyy, why not make your own replica? They are so easy and I love customizing the colours of my pencils. I love the pastel color scheme I ended up with- honestly, you can make an entire collection!
All you need are regular pencils, acrylic paint and a fine tip gold sharpie marker.
I absolutely loved how these turned out. I put fun words like “shake it up” and “seize the day”. “#hustle” is one I definitely might do next time!
Be sure to check out the video for tips in making the paint last!
For the blotting sheets, I used good old gift wrap paper because it works EXACTLY like blotting sheets you would buy in the drugstore.
And that pretty little storage container- believe it or not- is an upcycled mentos tin that I made all fancy with glitter tape which you could find here or here.
Let me know what you thought about these DIYs!
