DIY- Mini pieces of art

Hello! 

 & apologies for not posting recently, bussssy times at uni :)

Here's a quick tut for creating your own mini pieces of art in minutes,

AND your recycling, so it's all good!

For this you'll be using any old bits of plastic, like bags etc.

(colour doesn't matter, it's completely up to you!)

                                              The basics:

                                              - Iron

                                              - Brown baking parchment (the white one makes the plastic stick)

                                              - Padding to rest on (I'm just using an A3 sketchbook)

                                              - Scissors

Cut your plastics up into any pattern/shape you like

Then, place between the two sheets of baking parchment.

Make sure your iron is on the highest setting & doesn't have any water in it.

You only need to iron it for a few seconds,

 depending on how thick your plastics are.

Leave it cool for a few seconds between the sheets,

 then you should end up with something like this.
(I layered one strip of black between two sheets of white & trimmed it down)

Once you've got the basics down you can start getting creative :)

I've just used threads here, then layered a clear piece of plastic on top to seal them in.

Place it back between the baking parchment to seal it then your finished !

Here's how I made these two.

You can also create unusual textures to draw on.
It's so easy! Just layer up clear plastic (I used four pieces for this one)
& melt as before, you can also place threads between to seal them in.

Hope this was useful!

DIY- Recycling Jam jars into candle holders!

Hello!

So I've decided to revisit one of my favourite DIY projects, 

the best part is that it costs next to nothing! YAY(:

This is what we're going to make.

DIY- how to turn a plain canvas into something fun & useful!

This is my first DIY eek! (:

 

So, to make this
You'll need this

I used an old pair of curtains that I never used, I loveee bright 

stripes at the moment it reminds me of candy sweets. (: 

Oh and make sure they're fabric scissors! It's much easier.

I've found that measuring a width of 6cm around your canvas works best,

but it might be different for you, so just check!

It's optional to put cork board between your fabric and canvas, 

if your using it as a pin board, or want to strengthen it.. I added it after to the back,
to strengthen and hid the untidy bits (:

 I also ran out of staples! so I had to improvise with drawing pins.. 

but I think it worked out ok (:

Now your free to decorate however you like! you can add alsorts, from ribbons to sequines and pins!

I chose some string (i couldn't decide so i used both) and added some little pegs and a cute badge, 

get creative and have fun! (:
