 This month we're celebrating Bromely's birthday! This makes his astrological sign Cancer and his birthstone the ruby.

Cancer signs are very sensitive and sentimental. Their heart rules over their head. Better in small groups, Cancer signs are known for being fiercely loyal friends and for their quirky sense of humor. 

Because they are so deeply feeling, large groups and stress can overwhelm cancer signs and make them moody and snappy. Because of their quick wit, however, those snappy moods are seen as funny by others who misinterpret their mood. 

Cancer signs tend to be homebodies. They like their peaceful space where they can control what kind of energies enter into it. 

Cancer signs are loyal to the core and will always show up for their friends and no matter what family comes first for them. 

The ruby symbolizes nobility, purity, and passion. This passion is shown in their devotion to the friends and family they love so dearly.

Is your birthday in July or do you just love the color red?

4th of July Bark!

This 4th of July bark incorporates the traditional red, white and blue colors and is a healthier alternative to other sweet treats. This snack is also perfect for summer as it is filled with some of Princess Odette's favorite fruits and is deliciously refreshing!

Ingredients:

• 4 large strawberries, cut into star shapes

• 2 small cartons of vanilla dairy free yogurt (you may need more if you are using a large dish).

• Generous handful of blueberries

• Generous handful of raspberries

Method:

1. Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Empty out the yogurt onto the sheet.

3. Smooth out the yogurt using the back of a spoon.

4. Add the fresh fruit on top of the yogurt to make a unique design or you can go for a more rustic look and randomly sprinkle the fruit.

5. Place the tray of yogurt into the freezer for several hours until it is completely solid.

6. Remove the bark from the freezer and serve!

Independence Day T-Shirt

Rock your own style this 4th July by making your very own t-shirt for the occasion!

You could enjoy this activity all through the year and do different designs - you might even want to do a Swan Princess themed pattern!

You will need:

• foam alphabet stamps

• Plain white t-shirt (buy one for the craft or use an old t-shirt that you don't mind getting creative with)

• red, white and blue fabric paint

• foam brush and paintbrush

• washi tape

• cardboard (to prevent the paint running through the shirt).

Method:

1. Place the piece of cardboard inside the shirt. You can use any leftover cardboard or an old parcel that you have flattened as we only need this to prevent the colors running to the other side.

2. Using the washi shape, create different shapes on your shirt - you can try making fireworks, stars or any other fun pattern!

3. Take the foam brush and paint over the washi tape with the red and blue paint.

4.  Paint your foam stamps with paint and stamp the year, the date or even your name on the shirt.

5. Leave your shirt flat and place it to one side so that the paint can dry.

6. Carefully peel off the tape.

7. Wear your shirt and have fun!
