Best smartphone volume booster

Crummy sounding iPod docks can cost a great amount of money, and good sounding docks can cost a Bundle. Why waste your money when you can boost your volume just fine with a paper cup or a cereal box? I came across a tip on pinterest and found that some of them worked remarkably well—specifically, sticking your phone in a paper cup. I came up with this idea one day when I was charging my phone and suddenly my music turn on, and the sound came out really loud and clear, it was like having speakers. It reminded me of the lotion bottle phone holder .

This isn't exactly the most scientific test in the world, just a simple experiment. However, the paper cup was not just the loudest, but also the best sounding. There are several other methods to boost the volume of your smartphone but this one really works for me. There are quite a few tricks to try and the best methods work when you least expect it to. Just use something you can put your phone in that boosts sound.

I think that this method is like temporary smartphone speakers. I like to use it when I'm in the shower,  in my room getting ready or cleaning around the house. Its a great way to keep me going, and I'm so glad that I don't have to purchase an expensive pair of speakers just for my phone.

You can use a glass cup or a phone cup. Just try to experiment and find out which method(s) work for you.

DIY scarf organizer

Hey everyone! Its that time of year again, scarf season! That said, it's crucial to take out all scarves out from hiding and display them nicely where they can be easily seen. Now, we can easily go to the store and spend a bunch of money on closet organizers but that would just be a waste when most of us have what we need in our own home.

Its easy to take the easy way out and buy the organizer but the easy way out some times are costly, and we don't want that, we want to save! So I came up with the idea to simply use a hanger. It sounds silly that scarves will be organized by just a hanger but my way works....atleast for me it does.

It can work for you too, its very easy!

Before I started hanging my scarves, they would be stashed away in my drawers where I couldn't see them nicely and most times I wouldn't even wear them because I couldn't see it clearly. With my own scarf organizer, its easy to see and takes up much less space and that's what we all need, more space!!

Now this is a basic DIY project because my left hand is still not in good shape to do really exciting, crafty projects. Thank you for your patience guys!

The project: Gather up scarves and all your hangers.

DIY:
STEP 1: Lay down scarves next to each other on a flat surface.
STEP 2: Choose 3-4 scarves to hang.
STEP 3: Hang scarf on to hanger and make a loop to make a knot then pull down.
STEP 4: Continue STEP 3 with each scarf.
STEP 5: Once your done, hang it in your closet and see how much new space you have!

I love mine!

Blog Break...

Hey everyone! So sorry for not posting new DIY projects lately. A week ago (night before thanksgiving) I had a bad accident where a part of my left hand got burned and I couldnt use my left hand at all. It is a second degree burn and for 5 days I couldn't even move my hand. That is why I haven't been able to create cool new projects to share with you guys.

These past few days I've been able to move my fingers and stretch my hand a bit by where the burn is, which is good because that means its healing. I will have a new DIY post up soon! Its not going to be anything too crafty because I'm barely able to do anything involving both hands, since I don't want to get infected so I have to be careful. Thank you for your understanding!
