I've just discovered a new website where you can pin your favorite things. That includes creating categories&boards to post your "things". There will be no further explaining, check it out yourself!
I will be pleased to invite you on it ( as is requested to have an account).
That's all for now, go ahead and follow me, I'll follow you back. (:

My idea of homemade stamps!

I found a great way to make stamps. I will post up a tutorial with pictures real soon for sure, but for now, I'll just express my joys of coming up with this.
For these stamps, I only used cork, (board), a small plaque of wood, nail polish, glue (optional), and packaging tape. Hope you'll enjoy the tutorial that will be posted this week. (:

Walkotws's zine!

I absolutely love this zine! I know Beebee personally, and she has inspired me to make a zine of my own.
She has great "how-to"s in the book, as well as recommendations and what inspires her.
She is the sweetest person I know! :)<3

Here are some shots of her zine:

 




Well, that's all for now(:

Pillow boxes.

I love pillow boxes. I make them all the time when I need to wrap something small like chocolates, a bracelet, little charms... It's quick and easy too!!!
Here is the template I work with. I left it the original size so that everyone can see the approximately the
size I work with. Remember, the size is always up to you!
Here are how mine turn out: - my template ;       -my final result.

Have fun! 
ps. i will most likely post a video in a few weeks.

"Forget what hurt you in the past, but never forget what it taught you."
"Tears are too painful for a broken heart to speak."
"Life is a beautiful struggle."

Mini photo board (nice little homemade git) (=

I came up with a mini photo board, mad out of wood. This could be made on a canvas, cork board, cart board... I originally came up with this idea on a 12x12 canvas where i painted (which is much bigger than what I'm doing here. It doesn't matter if the shape is rectangle. This could be made in both ways. 

 Take your wood board (canvas or cork, carton...)
Stick on some decorative paper, or paint, draw... etc.
 Take any sort of fun ribbon (most likely thin and not too wide).
 flip your board over...
 staple the ribbon in, or glue them.
Add little pins...



Hope you enjoy the result!! (:
