Tissue paper flower

Hello, in my previous Blog post I shared some ideas for wrapping Christmas presents, but today I wanted to show you how to make these really simple and easy flowers to liven up any gift...

You will need:

tissues paper

scissors

elastic band or lunch bag tie

cello tape

mini stapler

Instructions:

Start by cutting out the tissue paper in to rectangles. Try out different sizes until your happy make sure you have about 6 to 8 sheets together.
Next fold the sheets altogether as if you were making a fan. One side, fold, flip, the other side, fold, flip etc.
Then use the elastic band or lunch tie to hold the middle.
Pull one side of the tissue to the other side and staple once, like so...

Pull one or two sheets of tissue up to create a crinkled effect. Do this until you have a voluptuous tissue flower.

I hope you had a great day!

DIY Mini Stocking Tree Decoration

Hey guys, today I'm going to show you how to create this really sweet Christmas stocking:

You will need...

Red felt

White cotton material

Embellishments (ribbons, buttons, felt, lace)

Material scissors

A sewing machine or a needle and some thread

Template of a stocking

Instructions

1.    Start by cutting the two stocking pieces out of red felt and the two stocking pieces of white cotton. Here is the template I used

2.    Then choose what design you would like to put on to your stocking, I chose some lace, a bit of red ribbon and a few buttons.

3.    Sew your design on to a piece of red felt

4.    Next place your designed stocking piece face up on top of the two white pieces of cotton and the back of the stocking at the bottom (it will look a bit like a sandwich).

Then sew half a cm around the edge of the stocking with sewing machine or use a needle and

thread.

 At the top of the stocking only sew one piece of felt with one piece of white fabric like so..

5.    Then attach either so string or a little bit of ribbon so you can hang it on the Christmas tree.

6.    Remember you can adjust the sizes of the stockings if you fancy!

Unique Advent Calendar

Hello there, I hope your having a super day! So, for the past few years I have become more and more annoyed with the usual cheap chocolate advent calendars (which are great don't get me wrong who doesn't like eating chocolate everyday) but I thought to myself what if you could make one?  My mum and I looked on Pintrest and Tumblr for inspiration. In the end my mum came up with the idea of using an old pin board for the base and used other around the household materials for the rest. However, for the fillings she bought little chocolates and made little decorations to put on the tree. I don't know what else she has in store for the rest of advent, she wanted to keep it a surprise. I'm sure it's going to be great!

Here is what it looks like...
