This blogger succeeded in changing this chair's color with some spray fabric paint.

Everyone knows the chocolatey, coconutty, caramel-striped Samoa is the queen of Girl Scout cookies. Let's see what happens when you try to make them at home.

Thanks to blogger Jillie, we now know this two-recipe doesn't give you a golden bronze glow, but rather a streaky, kind of dirty look.

Visually stunning, this makeup would turn heads as a cool Halloween costume. Right?

We're not sure we've ever seen a cheerier slice-and-bake pattern.

Apparently not. These are breakin' our bacon heart.

Nothing is better than biting into a cupcake, except maybe biting into a cupcake with a heart inside.

Leave a subtle 3D message on painted glass with puffy paint or a bit of hot glue.
