Bird inspiration post ❤


Oh my... i would love to spend time here ❤
Such pretty colors!

For today i have a post full with bird inspiration.
I've been making birds with bhedawool (i will be
posting peeks on my own blog later today!) and
thought it would be fun to make a post filled with
bird ideas. I made a selection of the photos that i
found on weheartit. I wanted to show you small
and big crafty ideas with birds. I hope you like it!

Do you have an old book?
Paint a branch with flowers and draw
a silhouet of a bird and cut it out ❤

i love these plates from Nina

it's fun to make origami birds ❤

just a little birdie polaroid moodboard ❤

wallpaper filled with birds, branches and flowers ❤

Who needs Easter or Xmas?
Just fill your branches with
birds anytime you want ❤

I found these pretty cups on the
Ariadne site. The birds have
been painted on the cups and
teapot. Wanne make them yourself?
Look here I made a DIY a while ago
about this, look here :)

Have fun creating your
own birdie things ❤

Love,
Vera

DIY make (fabric) butterflies


Hi :) I'm Vera and i'm the orange owl with the balloons. I 32 years, married with Harold and i work parttime as a teacher at a primary school. In my free time i paint, scrap and developing my skills on the sewingmachine, with knitting and crochet. I will make a post here every thursday. My posts are about inspiration, daily life, home and garden ideas, DIY projects and craft ideas for/with kids :D

For today i have a little spring/Easter DIY. It's really easy to make yourself and you can even make it together with your kids (they do have to use the siccors ;)) Spring has arrived and it's time to clean your house (ehhh i haven't done mine yet lol) and bring some spring inside.

DIY MAKE (FABRIC) BUTTERFLIES FOR YOUR
CURLY WILLOW EASTER BRANCH
You will need:
- (little) clothespins
- all sorts of fabrics
- fabric glue or double sticky tape
-(fabric) siccors
- paint is optional
-draw a butterfly on paper

If you don't have any fabrics lying around or
you don't want to use them,
you can also use some pretty
giftwrapping paper!

To make one butterfly you need to cut out the pattern two times.
I used fabric glue, but you can also use sided tape.
If the two fabrics are glued together and the sides aren't
completely matching, just cut a little on the sides.

I made three different ones for you to see :D

1. is the one that i made above
2. a butterfly made out of giftwrapping paper
3 made out of a single fabric and sewed together
in the middle

NOTE
If you are not planning of hanging them in your
Easter curly willow branches, you can also make
them and add them on top of a gift or giftcard!

I also made some flowers, wich i also added
with a clothespin. I used crepe paper and a
few other papers. Just make sure that the
paper is flexible.

Draw a flowershape and cut it out.
You can make a single flower, double or triple.
Fold them together in the middle
and you have a pretty flower.
If you like you can make
flowers by doing origami etc.

So here it is... my handmade
butterfly/flower branch!


I also made one with bows :D

This is the one i have in my livingroom!

I hope you have enjoyed this post and feel inspired by it. If you have any questions, just leave a comment! Next week i will make a post about making flowers with different materials :D Hope to see you then :) Wishing you a lovely day. XO.
