Here at The Body Shop we’re always looking for crafty new ways to get creative (whilst saving the planet, of course). We’re a little bit obsessed with DIY and turning something useless into something beautiful, and we’re pretty proud of our newest craft creation. Prepare to be amazed.
First things first, have you finished your Colour Crush™ Eyeshadow? No? Well, after watching this video you’ll be dying to get your hands on the empty eye shadow case.
All you need is an empty Colour Crush™ Eye Shadow, a few pressed flowers, and some Clear Colour Crush Nail Polish.
If craft and DIY are your thing, give upcycling a go and turn your empty case into a personalised key ring, necklace charm, or magnet.
Creating your unique design is easy.
1. First, remove the inner casing of your eye shadow with tweezers. Label remover comes in handy if there’s a gluey residue left behind.
2. Next, pop the lid of your eye shadow off.
3. Then, clean thoroughly, ensuring there are no traces of eye shadow left behind.
4. Now you can arrange your pressed flowers (or sequins, shells and small photos work perfectly, too)
5. Carefully pour over a thin layer of clear nail polish.
6. Leave to dry overnight.
7. And Voila! Finish by attaching to your key ring or necklace.
OK, so how do I press flowers?
It’s so easy! Simply place a few flowers between a couple of sheets of baking paper, then pile a few heavy books on top and leave for a week or so. Short of time? Place your flowers between the baking paper, iron on a low heat and then pile on the books overnight. If you’re under 12, ask an adult to help you.
