I realize my hair my not be considered "short" for some of you, but it is for me so that's what I'm calling it! If you hair is even shorter than this, you can still use the general idea of the tutorial to make it work for you. I hope you like it!
If your bobby pins slip around a lot, try spraying them with hairspray first. Dry shampoo gives your hair some texture & will help them hold. Not all bobby pins are created equal!! I would highly recommend these: http://bit.ly/1P0QEzb

Pinspiration - http://pinterest.com/manouvellemodeSummer Sand Pudding!Natalia Simmons2015-06-23 | Are you tired of bringing the same old desserts to your family dinners? You guys have GOT to try this one. The recipe for sand pudding has been in my family for years and I am happy to share it with you. A mixture of vanilla wafers & oreos create the sand and you pimp out regular pudding for this delicious, no-bake, summer dessert. You've got to try it!
Here's the recipe: 1 pkg Vanilla Wafers 3 or 4 Oreos 8 oz Cream Cheese 1/4 C Butter 2/3 C powdered sugar 2 small pkgs French Vanilla pudding mix 2 3/4 C Milk 12 oz Cool Whip
Crush Oreos and Vanilla Wafers in a food processor. In a separate bowl, cream together softened 8 oz cream cheese, butter, and powdered sugar. In different bowl, mix the instant vanilla pudding with milk. Add the pudding mixture to the cream cheese mixture. Fold in cool whip. Layer into buckets starting with the pudding, then sand and continue until you're at the top of your bucket!
You can double the recipe if you have two buckets or a large one like in this video (although I didn't double it here, I could have). If you want to make it ahead of time, make the sand and the pudding portions separately and then assemble the day of the event. If you assemble too early the pudding with make the sand mushy.
We bought a sand bucket specifically for this recipe and have never used it outside. It's a fun family favorite!
