Get schooled: Upgrade your locker from average to A+

Move to the head of the class with these three quick ‘n’ crafty ways to liven up your locker.

Spell it Out
Transform Scrabble tiles into totally clever magnets (swipe from your fam’s old set or check out thrift stores for used games). Snip pieces of magnetic tape and affix them to the back of the tiles. Pop ’em on the inside of your locker door to spell out reminders or hold up schedules.

Take Your Pic
Fill your locker with happy memories with a row of priceless pics. Use sticky tack to hold a vertical piece of 2-inch wide ribbon taut on your locker door (ribbon should be as long as the door). Snag some mini clothespins to secure your fave shots to the ribbon.

What’s Hanging
Here’s a way to smartly stash your stuff (think tampons, deodorant and makeup): Pick up a few extra pencil pouches and a spool of cute ribbon. Handsew loops of ribbon to either end of the case along one side next to the zipper. Hang each pouch on a magnetic hook (try pbteen.com) secured to the inside of your locker.

First let me just say that this article is really helpfulSmile Okay, but I am going into 6th grade next year, and its an advanced/gifted program in a high school and i don't know anyone who is going there. Any tips? And also I'm worried that I'm going to lose my student I.D. Are there any tips to not forgetting it? They're really strict about you having it AT ALL TIMES... Thx-a-million!!! xox<3

 

Hey girl!  Don't worry about meeting people- 6th grade is a great time to make new friends! If you're worried about forgetting your ID at home, go home and put it in the same place EVERY DAY.  Put it on your dresser or in the same pocket in your backpack.  That way, you get into the habit every morning of picking it up from the same place. For the first few days, have your mom set an alarm on her phone (or set one on yours, if you have one), that goes off five minutes before you head to school reminding you to grab your ID.  Good luck! xoxo

I have some problems!!! I mean what do i do if my locker won't close and we can't put our own lock on our lockers!! Is there any other ideas im dead in locker decorating???!!! Help!!!

 

Hey girl! If you're lockers are supposed to close but yours won't, notify the front office and they'll get someone to fix it.  If your school lockers won't close, make sure you aren't putting anything in there that's too valuable.  Stick to pictures from magazines and of your friends and hang some beaded friendship bracelets from the hooks.  xoxo

Is Gunmetal Colored eyeliner going to be a makeup trend this fall? What are some other trends and colors for makeup trends this fall? I want to look polished this school year! What are some fashion statements for this fall too? Thanks so much! I want to know what to get for BTS stuff!




Hey girl!

Gunmental colored eyeliner will definitely be in this fall. It's a great way to create the always-trendy smoky eye. Try using liquid liner to make a cat eye look or bright shadow for a fun pop of color. Just google fall 2012 makeup trends and you'll find loads of ideas.
