What I Made Today: White Pompom Bunting

So I decided to make A pompom for fun…then before I knew it, I have made like a dozen white fluffy pom poms! So now I’ve made this cute pompom bunting for my bedroom wall to keep Mr. Owl company <3

DIY: Heart Garland

I stumbled upon this pretty handmade heart garland tutorial, by the awesome Katrina from the Pugly Pixel blog.

It’s really super easy to make, and only requires a few things as you can see from the photo (please note that the Groucho Marx specs are optional, though highly recommended).

Here’s an idea! Why not make your way to the local paint store and grab some of your favourite colours from the paint swatch section? They’re free so that’s always nice :) You can go with a favourite colour scheme (mine would be pastel!) or do a  fun rainbow mix.

Enjoy the DIY!

Oh hello there! So on my recent trip to Melbourne, Australia, I stumbled upon this ultra cool Gift Wrapping mini zine by Hello Sandwich which had all these cool ideas about DIY handmade packaging , from adorable confetti bows to colourful pom pom - embellished gift wrapping. I love the idea of handmade gifts and packaging…it is very thoughtful and pretty all at the same time :)
So I decided to get creative and make my own gift wrapping to go with a handmade birthday present for a dear friend of mine, and this is what I came up with…(psst: click on the link to see)

I’m sending a birthday present to a dear friend tomorrow, so I’ve decided to get crafty with the gift wrapping too :)
