Mixed Media Art Collage DIY

When it comes to mixed media in art, it takes a good eye. Colors, designs, textures all play important roles, and for some, it comes easily. Thank goodness that people take the time to share their unique design skills with others on YouTube! This tutorial is simply amazing. When we found Marta's channel we were thrilled! She has the ability to send us running to our local thrift store time and time again.

What we love about her videos and teaching style (not to mention she is super soothing to listen to) is that she often makes use of things that might be thrown away, like the packaging of a pen pack or cardboard from a cereal box. She shows us that we can make beautiful imaginative artwork with things we might already have at home. So inspiring!

If you have some time to spare, grab a cup of cocoa and watch this art collage process using magazine cut outs. This tutorial is quite long but Marta's chit-chat makes it go by so fast! Almost too fast! Simply stunning work here. Thanks Marta! We are huge fans.

Enjoy this mixed media art collage tutorial.

How To Make Marshmellows

We've never tried making homemade marshmallows until we saw this easy marshmallow recipe from Everyday Food. Making your own fabulously gooey marshies is fun and easy. You only need a few ingredients that you probably already have in your kitchen. Even if you have never made a single marshmallow in your life, Thomas Joseph shows us how to get them perfect in no time at all. We will never buy store bought again, thank you Joseph! To keep your homemade marshmallows fresh, the best way to store them is in an airtight  glass container . They will keep soft for about 4 days. subscribe to EveryDay Food Now that you have the basic recipe down, you can experiment with all kinds of flavors. Lavender is extremely popular and so is peppermint. You can also try dipping them into chocolate, or get boozy and add some bourbon to really kick the flavors up. Try brushing on some edible gold lustre dust for a romantic evening. Have fun creating your own varieties.
