DIY Sunday: Happy thoughts journal

Happy Sunday!

I loooove journaling lately – and this is my special way of journaling!
It’s a happy thoughts journal where you can store your happy memories….

What you'll need:

A journal

I chose a mini album with a “window” at the front side

and blank white pages inside!
But you choose your kind of journal.
You will also need some cute fabric and decoration material (like ribbons etc), things that make you happy (photos….)!

First, lay your journal on the fabric and trace the outlines.

I decided to only use fabric to cover the front side of my journal.

The tricky thing about my journal was the “window” – I traced the outlines of it too and then cut an X from one side to the other.

I used glue to fix the fabric to the inside of the front page.

See?

Now that the fabric is fixed to the inside of the “window”, use glue again to fix the overlaying fabric to the inside.

You need to fold the right side of the fabric so the spiral binding can still be used.

Start decorating the outside of your pretty journal <3

I used a cute leather-flower-decoration ribbon

and Alphabet stickers.

It says HAPPY

I thought, some decoration on the window would be pretty.

So I printed out a pretty picture and glued it to the window

Then, I glued the first page of the journal to it.

Isn’t that pretty?!

Now, onto the pages….Start making this journal your own and add some pretty decoation and pictures and colourful paper!

Have fun crafting this cue cute CUTE journal! Make it your own, get creative <3

Love yous,

DIY Sunday: Magical fairy lights.

Happy Sunday, loves!

I love fairy lights and since their name is already magical, I wanted to make them more magical...:

,

To bring some magic to your rooms, it takes



Fairy lights (I’d suggest using LED lights because the regular lights will get hot and that’s dangerous with the paper etc.)

Cupcake cups in different colours and sizes

Scalpel or Scissors





First, take a cupcake cup.



Use the scalpel to



cut an “X” into the base of the cupcake cup.



Then, plug the bulp of the fairy light through the “X”.



Cover all bulps with cupcake cups.



And bring some pretty magic to your room!

I know it’s a small project, but believe me: It’s SO much fun!!!!! <3

Hope, you enjoyed this cute little tutorial....

Love you all,

Katja

Happy Sunday , lovelies!
Today, I have a tutorial waiting for you…



You will need:



Felt

fabric scraps

thread and needle

scissors

keychain

First, download, print and cut out the owl pattern ;D



Then, cut out two pieces of the body.



Then, use fabric to cut out the wings.



Now, you can cut out a half circle of a different colour of felt.



See?



Sew it to the body.





Then, add the wings.



And two buttons for the eyes.



Already looks cute, right?



Now, cut a triangle to make the beak.



Now, cut a strap from the felt to use it as the hanger…. Also take the second body piece….



and start sewing both pieces together.



Don’t forget to add the hanger!!!!



If you have been sewing halfway round the body, stuff the owl.



Keep sewing around it and now… you are done! HAHA!

HOOT HOOT!

Loves,

Katja
