Camp Pixie Dust Week #12-Fashion Week

Image
I can't believe Camp Pixie Dust is almost over! Don't worry, there will be other events afterwards. This week will be all about one of the best things about Pixie Hollow; fashion! Oh, sorry I haven't posted yesterday (I usually post on Monday). Things have been distracting with family events and my teeth, but I'll try as hard as I can to post on Mondays. Any way, here are some of Snow's outfits. And here's a badge for collecting to fly for looks! What's your favorite camp memory this year? Mine was exploring new places.

Camp Pixie Dust #11-Wilderness Explorer Week + Pixie School Supply idea

Image
I can't believe this summer is almost over! I'm already preparing for back to school! I forgot to post this last week, so here's a galaxy locker wallpaper craft in case you have a locker. Supplies: Black posterboard Scissors Blue, white, fuchsia and purple paint Sponge applicator and paint brush Magnetic stickers (or magnets) Steps: Cut the posterboard to fit your locker  Use the sponge to paint clouds of the paint. Just have fun with that, layer the colors and wait until they dry between each color The final layer will be tiny ribbons of white paint smeared on the background Use the paintbrush to paint stars. I painted constellations.  Attach the magnetic stickers to the back of the wallpaper. Or, you can use magnets to hang it on your locker  I was going to post school supply tips next week, but I'll post them now because some of you already started school. I added pictures of items inspired by the Tinkerbell DS game to my supplies (flowers, shells,...

Camp Pixie Dust Week #10-Stargazing Week

Image
Wow! This summer flew by very quickly! But camp is not over yet as there are still four new summer posts including this one-Stargazing week! As a light talent, I love stars and looking at the constellations. This week's summer activity is to identify the different constellations. You can even use a stargazing app or if old fashioned, a book to help you. You can either stargaze outside (if you live in a busy area, do your stargazing in a quieter place) or with a telescope! And of course, the badge!

Camp Pixie Dust Week #7-Camp Craft Week

Last week, Zarina hosted Alchemy week. This week, Bess will host Arts and Crafts week. To celebrate this week, you can draw or do a craft while watching a movie or something. I like to make crafts to decorate my room with. Here are some Disney Fairies crafts. I got each of them from my old Disney Fairies magazines. Mushroom bookmark Supplies: 3 different colors of paper, cardboard, pencil, glue, scissors, anything you'd like to use to decorate your mushroom Steps: 1. Sketch and cut out a mushroom cap on one piece of paper and cut it out. Trace the cap on another paper and draw circles on that one. Cut this one out. You should have one plain mushroom cap and another one in a different color with holes in it. Sketch and cut out a mushroom stem on the third piece of paper (preferably a natural color). 2.

Camp Pixie Dust Week #6-Pixie Dust Alchemy

Image
What I loved about The Pirate Fairy (I'm planning on watching it this week actually) is how Zarina proves that pixie dust can come in different colors. So this week's activity is making pixie dust. To start, you'll need some glitter jars. I got a pack of glitter in a bunch of colors at my local craft store. Here's some of the pixie dust I created: (tip: when making dust, make sure you add the tiniest bit of blue dust to activate it) Tinker talent-Green dust with small branches Forest talent-Leaf colored dust with small leaves Winter talent-White dust. It may not be winter yet, but when it comes, you can collect a tiny bit of snow and put it in. Blue pixie dust-A jar of blue dust (be careful with it; it's powerful!) Water talent-Light blue dust. You can choose to put shells, seaweed or tiny water droplets Love pixie dust-Red dust combined with pink for friendship and a little bit of white (you can put it in a heart shaped bottle if you want) Animal talen...

Camp Pixie Dust Week #5-Writing week

Image
Last week, I created a list of dreams that would make great ideas for a book. This week, I'm using them to write stories. Here are some writing tips: Brainstorm a list of random ideas for a story. They can be from a dream, personal experience, or your imagination Create the protagonist. If it's in another world, create that. Make sure you know everything about the character and world so you can easily write about it. Decide what the character's goal is and how he/she finds it. I like to use a basic plot organizer and write how it applies to my story in each section Make sure all the "scenes" of your book move the story forward And here's a badge for writing a story! Stay tuned for next week's camp activity!
