Picture Perfect

Here is a fun and easy craft that will add a princessey touch to any girls room!


Supplies
-Photo frame
-Hot Glue
-Yellow Yarn
-Artificial Flowers ( I used fire flowers)


Instructions


Cut nine long pieces of yarn. The length you need will depend on your frame size. Pieces anywhere from 1-2 yards should work fine. Tie the pieces together at the top with a knot. Braid until you reach the end, and then knot that. 


The next step allows you to be fairly creative. Your finished piece will look something like this,

so it is a good idea to lay the yarn down in a few different desgins before you hot glue for the final time.When you are ready to do that, cut the knot off of one end of your braid. Hot glue that end down in a way that will not allow your braid to come undone. Then do a few dots of hot glue in the places where the braid lays flat on the frame, or the yarn over laps. You don't want to hot glue the whole braid down, because it will ruin the effect. Cut the knot of the other end, and hot glue that end down like you did the first end.


Once the braid is done, hot glue the flowers on. Gluing the flowers down over the end is a good way to hide the rough ends.




Happy decorating!




Lots of Love.

By Lantern Light...

Isn't the idea of floating in a boat under lanterns so romantic? I think every girl would love to do something like that. 

Although it's not quite the same as floating lanterns, here is a craft that will light up your table, front walkway or porch. 

I got the idea form all of the mason jar crafts on Studio 5.

Supplies

-Modge Podge

-Tissue Paper 

-Glass Jar (Make sure you can get a lighted candle in!)

-Scratch paper 

-Glitter (optional)

-Brush

Instructions

1. Cover your surface with scratch paper.

2. Put a little bit of modge podge on you jar, and stick tissue paper on it. It then, continue to cover the jar in tissue paper, and apply modge podge over top. You don't need any underneath the paper, just make sure the top part is covered.

3. If you want glitter, carefully sprinkle it on the jar while the jar is still wet.

Hope you enjoy!!!!

Lots of Love,

Puppets

I love coloring.

A lot.

So, this afternoon, I decided to make puppets! 

I even got Pascal to try it out.

We both agreed that it was a success, and we hope that you will too. 

Supplies

Puppets
Craft Sticks
Masking Tape
Glue sticks
Colored Pencils
Construction Paper, or Card stock


Instructions


Begin by coloring the puppets. Colored Pencils work best, because they can do the little details.

After you have colored them, cut out the character, not the back ground. Glue the character on the construction paper, if you didn't print it out on card stock. 

Do this with all of the puppets. 

Once that is done, carefully cover the puppets in masking tape, and cut them out. You can also laminate them. 

After that, you can stick the stick on the back with masking tape. 

A fun way to create a puppet show is to get some fairy tale stories from the library, and to read them while the small chameleons(or children) in your life act the story out! 

I will be posting the puppets soon, but you can also just use coloring pages you find online. Here is a good website that I used a lot http://princess-coloring-pages.blogspot.com/ .

Lots of Love,
