FALL WREATH (RECYCLING OLD CARDBOARD MUFFIN BOX)

FALL WREATH


Here is a fall season craft, which hardly costs anything!

All that you need is.... 
1. An empty muffin cardboard box.
2. A wire clothe hanger.
3. Glue gun and glue sticks.
4. Water colors and a brush.
5. Glitter pen.
6. A string or a piece of ribbon.

Method:
Step 1: Cut the muffin box, then cut out the shapes of fall leaves from them.

Step 2: Using water colors of the hues of red, yellow, brown and green, paint all the leaves using a brush. Let them dry.
Step 3: Add some veins using brown color and try to paint it quite natural.
 Step 4: Actually the  wire hanger was very thin. So I took a sheet of large white paper and rolled it into a tube and tied it around the hanger using a string and painted it orange color using up the left over colors. I forgot to take pictures of this part. Later, I stuck the leaves onto it using hot glue.
Step 5: I took a brown colored construction sheet and cut a tag out of it. I jotted down 'WELCOME' on it using glitter pens and markers. I hung it using a paper string from the back on the hanger.
Step 6: It is a perfect door decor for the fall season and at almost no cost! It is easy to craft and fun too! You can make your little ones busy for the coloring part.They will surely enjoy helping you! Happy crafting!

CUTLERY CASE/ SCISSOR CASE

CUTLERY CASE/ SCISSOR CASE

I had this idea in my mind to design a scissor case for myself. After I made it, I got another idea to use it as a cutlery case on my dining table. I made one and I am heading to make three more to make a complete set of 4. It goes so well with my Corelle Dining Set which also has the same hues.
 As a scissor case it looks like this as shown below....
Presentation counts! Isn't it?
 

GO GREEN! CAPRISUN JUICE POUCH BAG

RECYCLED BAG USING CAPRISUN JUICE POUCHES

 

 

Recycling the Caprisun Juice pouches was the part of  my project this time. I washed the juice pouches with soap and water, dried them completely before working on the project. I made a durable, sturdy, waterproof bag by piecing the pouches  together using a sewing machine. I used plastic handles for the bag which I already had at home. This bag can be used to carry beach wear (wet clothes, slippers) or can be used to carry a picnic blanket or any thing else. It can be used as a gift bag too! Show proudly that you are a fan of Caprisun 100% Juice!  





GO GREEN!!!

HANDPAINTED GIRLS CUTE BALLERINA MONKEY T-SHIRT

HANDPAINTED GIRLS CUTE BALLERINA MONKEY T-SHIRT


          Since last few days, I have been thinking of designing a cute T-shirt for my daughter. She loves ballet and ballerinas, keeping this in mind I first sketched a design on a rough paper and asked her if she loved it. She was extremely delighted to see it and wanted me to complete it as soon as possible. So I painted it quickly for her. She was so happy and wanted to wear it on the first day of her school.

FOAM CRAFT DOOR HANGER

I was working on this project since last few days. I made another door hanger for my son's room. He loves super heroes and collects comic books and other stuffs having images of his favorite characters. I thought he will surely love it.
