Jingle bells, Jingle bells, Jingle all the cards!

DIY XMAS Cards!

Materials needed:

 Drawing block

 Plastic wrapper/ Book plastic cover/ Zip lock

 Glitter/ Metallic confetti

 Scotch tape

 A pair of scissors

 Glue stick

Buttons

Additional materials:
Pencil
Markers

DIY confetti card:

Fold the drawing block into half.
Then draw a shape on the drawing block using pencil. (I drew a triangle.)


Cut the shape out of the drawing block.

Then make a simple plastic wrap to contain the metallic confetti. (If you have a ziplock, just fill it with the confetti! It is important that the plastic wrap is better than the shape you have cut out!)


Tape the plastic wrap to the drawing block with the shape that has been cut out.

Take a piece of drawing block and paste it over.

I used washi tape to cover the rough edges that has another piece of drawing block.




Then use marker and decorate the cover with the confetti!


I also made a square shape!

DIY Christmas glittery card:

I drew different sizes of circles using pencil.
Then applied glue stick on the circles.
Next, I poured glitter on the sticky area.



With a black marker, I finally drew lines and outlined the circle!

DIY Washi Tape Christmas card:


If you are a washi tape collector like myself, this is probably possible for you!
I was inspired by the birthday card and decided to add a HOHOHO to make it feels more christmasy~

Inspired from:

This listing is for one lovely button christmas card with the saying Ho Ho Ho included. The card is made using a luxury cut of 300gsm card measuring 13.5cm x 13.5cm: because the card is unique the buttons will vary in each card. A standard envelope will be provided.    Cards are packaged in bubble wrap and in a hard backed cardboard envelope to ensure safe delivery.

Credits to all the pinterest users I have put the links to!!!
Thank you for inspiring me and I finally have a use for my buttons and glitters~
:DDD


I was able to finish five cards in an hour! If it is possible for me, I am sure it is also for you!
Let's do more DIY and use all the items we have at home!

DIY Christmas Snow Globe

Since Christmas is coming, what other perfect timing is it to make some simple, cheap and easy DIY gifts!

Today, I will be teaching you how to make Snow Globe in the most cheapest and simplest way! I am aware that there are plenty of tutorials on this DIY. However, I decided to make my own since some materials are not available in my COUNTRY (Singapore)!

Let's start!!!

Materials needed:

  1. Clear Liquid Glue (IT HAS TO BE CLEAR! NO WHITE GLUE!) - Daiso
  2. Warm water - Home
  3. Mason Jar/ Sauce Jar - Daiso/ Home
  4. Glitter - Popular bookstore
  5. Metallic Confetti (Optional) - Daiso
  6. Small figurines- Daiso
  7. Super glue/ Hot glue - Value dollar
Total Costs (3 snow globes): ~$12









Step:

Use super glue and stick the figurine to the jar cap.
Leave it for about 6-24hours. (I only waited for 6 hours for my figurine to stick!)


Check if the figurine stays on the jar cap when it is tilted upsize down. (I didn't take photo with the snowman so the figurine is Santa instead! LOL.)
If the figurine stays, you can start to pour glue into the jar. I pour about 1/2 of the jar, you can add more if you! (If you add more glue, the slower the glitters will take to settle to the bottom of the jar!)



Sprinkle some glitter and metallic confetti into the jar. (I feel that I've used too much, so little bit is enough!)



Pour warm water into the jar and leave about 1/8 of the jar empty.
Cover the jar with the cap!
Now, you can begin to shake your snow globe!!!


Tips:
  • You may want to use baby oil instead of glue! It will make the movement of the glitters smoother. (I use clear glue since it is cheaper.)
  • Also distilled water is recommended since it doesn't contain any impurities and the water is cleaner over the time.
  • You can hot glue around the cap so as to prevent the cap from being too loose! (My hot glue wasn't with me hence I did secure the cap!)
  • If you are craftier, you may want to create your own craft using clay! OR you can print pictures then laminate them!

Simple Sling Canvas Bag DIY!

KIKI~

December is here~
Are you guys listening to Christmas songs?
Well, I haven't listen to Christmas songs yet. I usually listen to them about 10days before Christmas. :D


As my post said, I am going to guide you on how to make a simple Sling Bag which is super durable!

Materials needed:
 Canvas Fabric: 1-1.5m (Canvas is the perfect fabric for this bag!)

 Magnet Clasps (Bag)

 Bag Buckles

Bag Slider (LOL. I forgot what this is called!!!)

Steps:

Bag Strap
  1. Cut a long strap of fabric (65inch by 3inch).
  2. Fold the long strap into two with the right sides facing each other. (65inch by 1.5 inch)
  3. Sew along the length.

  4. Place one of the bag buckles to the end and sew it to secure.
  5. Insert the bag slider which allows you to adjust the length of the sling later on.
  6. Then place the other bag bag buckle to the end and sew it!



Main Part of the Bag
  1. Cut a big piece of fabric (17inch by 24 inch).


  2. Fold that piece to have a fold (17inch by 12 inch). I wanted the canvas to have a bit of curve, hence I cut the sides to have the curve.
  3. Sew the two sides. (Ensure that the right sides are facing each other!)
  4. At the fold, pin a triangle measuring about 2inches from both sides. I wanted to have a gusset at the bottom, you can skip this part if you don't wish to have a gusset.
  5. Sew them.

Zipper Strap
  1. Cut two straps of fabric (18inch by 1.5inch).
  2. Sew one strap to one side of the zipper teeth. (Leave about 1inch without any zipper touching the fabric on both ends!)
  3. Sew the other side of the zipper teeth to the next strap.

Bag Cover:
  1. Cut a big piece of fabric (17inch by 24 inch).
  2. Fold that piece to have a fold (17inch by 12 inch). I wanted the canvas to have a bit of curve, hence I cut the sides to have the curve.
  3. Sew the two sides. (Ensure that the right sides are facing each other!)
  4. Turn the fabric inside out to become the right side.
  5. Place the Magnet Clasps (Flat part) on the fabric and mark it using chalk or marker.
  6. Make a slit on the marked part (Only on one of the side!)
  7. Secure the Magnet Clasps (With the small magnet in the middle) on the slit you have made with the flat part on the wrong side of the fabric. (The right side should have the magnet!).




Loops:
  1. Cut 2 straps of fabric (3inch by 3inch).
  2. Fold the fabric (3inch by 1.5inch).
  3. Sew the sides.
  4. Turn it inside out.


     
  5. Loop it to the buckle!

Connect them:
  1. Sew left side of the zipper strap to the main bag (only one piece of the main bag).




  2. Sew right side of the zipper strap in between the bag cover and the main bag (the remaining unsewn part of the main bag).
  3. With the remaining zipper strap that isn't sew to any fabric, place the loop in between and sew them to close the bag.




  4. Using the buckle, connect it with the loop.

The last magnet:

Use the one on the right side of the picture!!!
  1. Place the Magnet Clasps (Flat part) on the main fabric (The one without the cover bag) and mark it using chalk or marker.
  2. Make a slit on the marked part (Only on one of the side!)
  3. Secure the Magnet Clasps (With the dented hole) on the slit you have made with the flat part on the wrong side of the fabric. (The right side should have the magnet!).

End product:





I managed to put my camera, water bottle, goodies from AFA, handphone and wallet into the bag!!!
This bag is such a good deal as it only costed me less than $10 to make. Also, it is super easy and fast to make!

I wanted to do a DIY post on the Kiki's dress I sew but I didn't take any pictures D:

Anyways, few people recognised me as Kiki on that day. HAHAHA. I guess my cosplaying was a success~

Recommended Drama:
Mama Fairy and the Woodcutter
This drama is funny and very light-hearted.
I laughed a lot while watching this drama.
The CG might not be the best but it is hilarious enough for you to forgo the CG.
Let's not forget that Moon Chae Won also looks super pretty and delicate.
Since I can't wait to see how this drama will end, I just know I have to recommend this drama!
