Tutoriel fleurs en filtre à café *Merci à Ludi, membre de la Communauté de mariages.net, pour ce très joli tutoriel. Voici le matériel dont vous aurez besoin : Des filtres à café.Des piques à brochette ou autre objet en forme de tige.Du scotch de fleuriste.Un stylo.Une paire de ciseaux.Du colorant alimentaire liquide de la couleur de votre choix. Voici les étapes à suivre : Commencez par tracer les pétales sur vos filtres à café, de forme pointue, comme sur la photo par exemple, ou encore arrondie, en sachant qu’il vous faudra un minimum de 6 formes pour une fleur, puis découpez-les. Séparez vos pétales en dépliant le bas des filtres : cela vous fait donc 12 pétales, que vous devrez assembler en les enroulant sur une tige recouverte de scotch de fleuriste. Trempez ensuite votre fleur dans du colorant alimentaire liquide pour lui donner sa couleur, puis laissez sécher la tête en haut pour que le colorant descende. *Retrouvez tous nos tutoriels mariage dans notre section Fait Maison.
Juggling With Kids: The Secret to Cutting Felt & Making Felt Storyboards for Preschoolers I'm taking a curriculum class for Early Childhood Education this semester. For my final project, I have to turn in a curriculum box at the end of the semester, with quite a few felt/flannel story boards. I was dreading this assignment, because the idea of cutting felt seemed like a long and tedious process. However, while I was looking up ideas on Pinterest I ran across this fabulous tutorial on Make it Cozee that taught me the secret to cutting felt. I'm so thankful that I found this tutorial! And now I'm obsessed with making these cute flannel/felt stories for my final project. Supplies: -Felt (You can purchase small pieces at your local craft store. Directions: When it comes to creating a felt story board, you will want to find a pattern to print out. With freezer paper there is a glossy side. The side with the paper finish is where you want to trace the art. Next you will cut out the drawings and iron each piece onto the correct color of felt. Now you can cut out your shape.
Weave A Newspaper Basket Last night's project, a basket made from old newspaper. After seeing this post at CraftStylish, I was inspired to try one. Maybe I'll keep books and remote controls in it. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. IMG 259763325714159 Pendentifs d'artichaut impressionnant d'Allison Patrick | Jim On Light Have you seen these amazing lamps?! A designer that has her stuff on Etsy, Allison Patrick of the 3R’s Blog (Reduce, Reuse, Redecorate – 30 projects in 30 weeks) has created some pretty cool pendant shades that are pretty representative of the beautiful shape of the artichoke. But – the shade is made of recycled pages from books and magazines! Allison’s lamps are very cool, they remind me of the decoupage projects my mom would do with us as a kid. Just recently she got featured on Fab.com, and that has pushed her work sky high! Allison’s got a pretty awesome story with her luminaire design business (which is called Zipper 8 Design, by the way) – she graduated with her Masters, and like many people, she found herself with lots of time and no job. Allison's stuff on Etsy Allison, JimOnLight.com thinks your works are awesome. Thanks Inhabitat for the original article! Like this: Like Loading...

IMG 259767513240356 Autumn Flower Wreath Today I have a tutorial of sorts to share. It is not a full tutorial because 1. I learned to make the flowers from an already pretty amazing tutorial and 2. This wreath is a combination of a regular grape vine wreath you can purchase at the craft store, lots of coffee filter flowers and a few acorn and berry sprigs. Okay, so on with the tutorial. I wanted fall-ish colors for my flowers, so I used yellow, pink, red and orange paint. Mix your paint with water, stir well, scrunch in a stack of coffee filters and let them soak up the paint. I dried some flat on paper towels, but then ran out of room and made a clothes line to dry the rest. Okay, now on to the flower making part. For flower #1, fold three coffee filters into quarters, cut a scalloped edge along the top and then a scalloped center. Open up the filters and cut the outer ring open. With the center pieces, twist in the middle to create a petal and press onto a strip of masking tape. Now roll from the center …

Papperspyssel | Pysselmani Påsken närmar sig och det är dags att klä riset. Men har man katt är det inte självklart man kan ha fjädrar i det. Jag hittade för ett tag sedan tips på ett par fjärilar som man viker. Och papper har väl de flesta av oss hemma? papper; enfärgat eller mönstratsaxmetalltråd, snöre eller piprensare Mina pappersbitar är 7×7 cm. Vik pappret på mitten. Så här blir resultatet! Ta två stycken och bind ihop dem. Nu är det bara att veckla ut pappret och klämma till pappret lite så det håller formen. Det blev ett par stycken! För några dagar sedan var vi iväg och firade svärfar som fyllt år. Till kortet använde jag mig av en teknik som kallas maskning. Jag började med att stämpla blommotivet på pappret. Den utklippta bilden lades rakt ovanpå den andra blomstämpeln. Och så här blev resultatet! Och så här blev kortets insida! Böcker är en lite aningen heliga för mig. Nu är frågan om det jag pysslat med ska kallas för återbruk eller om jag faktiskt har fullständigt misshandlat boken? Så här viker du:
Old Jeans to New Hairband Today, I'm going to show you how to make a cute little hairband using some fabric from old jeans. You will need ... Scissor, pen, fabric from old jeans, glue gun a piece of plain hairband, piece of cardboard from packaging. First, draw a 5 petals flower The shape and size is absolutely depends on your preference... Trace the flower shape onto the jeans... Cut out the flower... you will need about 6 of them... Cut 4 of them into below... a 3 petal piece and a 2 petal piece... And the balance 2 flowers into a petal piece... You will have some extra pieces... Now, lay a 2 petals piece onto a 3 petal piece to create pattern... And lay another 3 petal piece again... The sequence I apply here is 3 - 2 - 3 - 2 -1 - (1x2)* - 1 (1 x2) is lay a one petal into a 'V' shape. Hope this make sense to you... See the further picture... This is the result of the sequence I applied. (I make the layer more contrast by using different side of the fabric) When you happy with the pattern formed, glue them together with a glue gun.
jones design company ⋅ create ⋅ decorate ⋅ celebrate Welcome to flower week – five days of simple and delightful flower projects. I could probably do three weeks of flowers because there are so many different ways to create them, but I’ve limited it to five of my current favorites. Before we get started, let me make a few disclaimers: 1. 2. 3. Okay, so let’s begin. Here’s what you’ll need: :: paper {either cover or text weight} :: florist wire :: scissors, pencil, glue gun STEP ONE: cut irregular circle This circle is approximately 8 inches, but you can do any size you wish. STEP TWO: cut spiral Start at the outside edge and cut in a spiral fashion to the center. I like a sort of bumpy shape so that the petals end up a bit irregular If you aren’t so sure about your cutting skills, feel free to draw your spiral before cutting. To add a little interest to my bouquet, I used a variety of yellow scrapbook papers {my favorite is that yellow dot} STEP THREE: roll your blossom start at the outside edge and coil tightly STEP FOUR: release coil
Easy DIY Pumpkin Craft With Mason Jar Lids! Here’s a fun fall craft that just about anyone could do! The cost is minimal and it would make a perfect fall mantle decoration. My friend Sarah posted this project to her Facebook page and I was so impressed that I asked her if I could post it here on STS. I haven’t tried it yet, mostly because spray paint with a 2 year old around doesn’t always turn out so well, but it’s a project that I’m totally convinced that even I could do (for those who are new to STS, I’m about as far from a “crafty person” as you can get)! Here’s how to make it: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
