How to Create a Miniature Garden Today we will talk a little bit about miniature gardens. I was searching form a totally other thing and I “stumbled” on some pictures with amazing miniature gardens made in flower pots. At first, it’s better to know that this miniature gardens planted in a pot or other container, are designed to resist outside in the sun or rain. For this it’s better to use real small plants, which have a very slow growth rate. You can create miniature gardens also in broken plant pots. Photos credit : Twogreenthumbs.com

frankie exclusive diy: dip-dyed shoes Winter isn't quite here, but already folks are starting to revert back to their dreary cold weather wardrobes. Ugh. How boring! We're not ready to retire our brightly coloured hues just yet, how about you? Why not dip your toes into some playful colour and keep a little bit of summer in your step with a pair of dip-dyed shoes. All you need are some white sneakers, fabric dye (in your choice of colour), Vaseline, baking powder and an old toothbrush. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

Free Template Maker DIY Painted Feathers I’ve always loved the idea of painting fake feathers, and with festival season underway it seemed like the perfect time to do it. I originally thought of these purely as decorations but then it occurred to me that they’d be a great finishing touch for a festival outfit. This is a great activity to do outside on a warm sunny day, and once you start it’s slightly addicting! What you need: fake feathers, paint (I used acrylic paint), and a paint brush. I got this paint from Utrecht and I love it. I added a little bit of water to the paint before applying to the feathers, and they absorbed the paint almost like watercolor. After the entire feather was covered I added some dots and lines with white paint. Get as creative and colorful as you want with the feathers! I wanted to add in some of the smaller brown feathers to my arrangement, so for those I kept it simple and painted them in colorful ombre shades. Arrange your feathers on a wall as beautiful spring artwork! Photos by Julia & Brigette.

diy: pouf zippy pouch When I figured out how to make this pouch, I was pretty excited. I had been trying to recreate a pouch that Casey had and it took a few tries but I got it! It's so simple, it blows my mind. If this is your first time sewing something, it may not be as exciting for you but, I will try to explain it as best I can! First off, you will need: - Felt (Just a standard 9"x12" piece that you can purchase at a craft store) - A piece of fabric cut to the same size - 14" Zipper - Bias tape - Thread - Pins - Scissors - Sewing Machine Lay your fabric down face up. Sew it all together along the edge. Fold the fabrics down and iron the edge down exposing the zipper. Sew along the edge to keep the edges from getting stuck in the zipper. Fold the fabric on top of it self and line the opposite edge up with the other side of the zipper. Sew along the edge. Unzip the zipper so you can iron the edges again around the zipper. Zip up the zipper and turn everything inside out. From the side it should look like this.
