That's it, summer's officially over! My kids got back to school this week, and the cooler temps are already beckoning for all things Fall, like pumpkin spice lattes and cozy craft sessions in front of the TV 😊 So today I'm sharing a couple of super cute, and simple DIY projects that are perfect to get your office or school life organized and oh-so pretty!
Summer is upon us, and apart from drinking sangria all day, I'm dreaming about crafting all sorts of fun, colorful and seasonal party accessories, like these custom summer sun hats! Wouldn't they be so cool for a pool or beach party?! I made these for a summer party shoot I styled a few weeks ago (as you probably saw in my Instagram stories ?) and they looked so fab and were so easy to make, that I had to share the DIY tutorial here with you guys!
Paper anything is my jam. But paper flowers are my particular favorites! I mean, you take a fairly simple, banal, flat piece of paper and fashion it into something 3-D, beautiful and super practical. What's not to love?! And did I mention they're so easy to craft? Yep, despite their intricate looks, they're a cinch to make, and one of those DIYs that even the kids can help with!
We're starting our week with a super fun and gorgeously fragrant DIY. Is there a better way?! These scented bath bombs look so pretty and are a fun crafty activity to make with girlfriends during a girls night-in or spa party and they make a super sweet gift for teachers, or party favor for so many occasions and celebrations!
When I was fourteen, my school organized a crafts sale, and we had to make all sorts of handmade decor items to sell, including scented candles. We made star-shaped candles, triangular candles, round candles...they smelled sooooo good and I was hooked for life! On candles. Candle-making is one of my favorite crafts ever! You can see one of the blog's most popular post here , which happens to involve candles , what else?! So today I'm more than a tad excited to share my latest DIY candles with you - Easter Egg candles! 😍
Christmas is round the corner, and if you're looking for easy yet dazzling decorating ideas for your party table backdrops or for your home, than these pretty and shiny copper wreaths are the answer! They're a cinch to make, and help to add a little sparkly to any room or wall, like you probably saw in my pink and copper Christmas party this year ! 😍
These pretty pink bow napkins with their copper monogram napkin rings are one of my favorite projects from my Pink and Copper Christmas party this year! They're also a super quick and easy DIY to embellish any holiday table, so you totally can use what you probably already have at home or tailor them to your color scheme or table theme.
For my pink and copper Christmas table this year (check out the full post here), I really had my eyes set on some pink furry place-mats I saw in a shop near me. But when I when to buy them, they'd sold out! So what's a party girl to do? Why, make her own, of course!
December is 'round the corner so it's the perfect time to be thinking about your Advent Calendars! I always seem to leave it too late, I must confess. But this year, I pulled my crafty stash out last week and made this baby in one afternoon with the help of my little elves 😊 ( Did you see my Instagram stories? ) Seriously, it's the perfect, EASY craft for an afternoon with the kiddos! Plus, it doesn't hurt that it shimmers with all sorts of metallic ornaments and pretty glitter, shiny papers, right?!
As you probably saw all this week, we're sharing unicorn party ideas, crafts and recipes to inspire your own creative celebrations! And no unicorn birthday party is complete without unicorn headbands, right?! So my daughter and I crafted some cute party favors headbands that also double as pretty unicorn photo booth props! 😊
As part of my green and gold Christmas Holiday tablescape , I made these cute DIY glitter ornaments to act as place-card holders on my party table. They helped add a little shimmer and sparkle to each place-setting, and were SO easy and quick to make! I made them the night before the party. Just shows you can create something special and last-minute, without much effort. And THAT is my fav kind of craft!! 😉
Man, I love a good party photo booth, don't you?! Especially if it's easy to put together ;) Don't get me wrong, I totally adore those beautifully crafted DIY photo booths full of intricate paper flowers or balloon backdrops we see all over Pinterest . But in reality, for my own party photo booths, I tend to go less OTT and opt for a more low-key version.
