Alright, let me tell you about my “happy dos santos” adventure. It was a wild ride, let me tell ya!
So, it all started with me stumbling upon this tutorial online. Looked simple enough, right? Wrong! I decided I’d give it a go, see what all the fuss was about. I mean, the name alone – “happy dos santos” – who wouldn’t want a piece of that?
First thing I did was gather all my materials. I spent a good hour just rummaging through my toolbox, trying to find that one specific thingy. You know how it is. Finally, I had everything laid out, ready to rock and roll.
The tutorial said to start with Step One: “Prepare the base.” Simple enough, right? I grabbed my trusty ol’ knife and started hacking away. Turns out, “preparing the base” was a lot harder than it sounded. I almost sliced my finger off like, five times. But hey, no pain, no gain, right?
Next up was Step Two: “Apply the thingamajig.” Now, the thingamajig was a bit tricky. It was all gloopy and messy. I ended up getting it all over my hands, my clothes, even my hair! Looked like a total clown. But I persevered. I carefully slathered that thingamajig all over the base, trying to make it look as smooth as possible. Spoiler alert: it didn’t.
Then came Step Three: “Wait for it to dry.” This was the hardest part. I’m not a patient person. I kept poking it, prodding it, generally just being a nuisance. It took forever, but finally, it was dry! Or at least, dry enough.
After that, the tutorial said to add some “finishing touches.” This involved glitter. Lots and lots of glitter. I swear, I’m still finding glitter in my apartment weeks later. It’s like glitter herpes – it just keeps coming back!
Finally, after hours of work (and a lot of mess), I was done! My “happy dos santos” masterpiece was complete. Was it perfect? Heck no! Was it a little wonky? Definitely. But it was mine, dammit! And it made me smile.
The final result? It’s… unique. Let’s just say that. But hey, I learned a lot, had some laughs, and now I have a weird, glittery thing to show for it. Would I do it again? Maybe. But next time, I’m wearing gloves!
So there you have it – my “happy dos santos” adventure. It was a bumpy ride, but I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go vacuum up some glitter.
