"Just when i think i finally settled on the best scrub i stumble upon another better one. I had no clue that roses were this good for your skin. i guess that's why they make rose water anyways but now that i know i am sure i will love this scrub."

"This DIY cleanser just happens to be the same way i like taking my tea, with honey and lemon. I have used lemons in many masks and scrubs and the result is clearer skin over time. the lemon really clears up those blemishes and dark spots. If you haven't tried it before then here is your first mask."

DIY Pillow Instructions

Instructions

Place the bandanas on top of each other wrong side facing inwards, fold the bandanas in half and cut out a half heart shape.
Fold the hearts open keeping the two bandanas on top of each other. Use pinking shears to cut a fringe around the heart shaped bandanas. The fringe pieces should be at least 6.5 cm long and 2.5 cm wide. Anything shorter than 6.5 cm long will be difficult to weave and if the fringe is too long, you pillow will be a bit small. Fold the fringe over and make a small slit on the fold. You’ll use the slit to “weave” the edges of the pillow, so the smaller the better.
Tug gently to tighten. Continue weaving the fringe and periodically flip your heart over to make sure you haven’t missed any lonely little fringe pieces – you’ll end up with a wonky heart if you do. Leave the last five fringe pieces, stuff the heart and then finish off the pillow by weaving the last few pieces.

I was at a loss about how to weave the fringe until I found the pictures and then it came to me. This is very easy to do and you don't need to just use bandanas. Any large pieces of left over material will work. And talk about inexpensive and cute! Thank you for sharing such a neat idea.

Love the look. Sorry, but I could use a little more explanation on how the weaving is done?
