DIY hair pins!

Hello!
Sorry I havnt posted in a while.
I have been on holiday with family and friends,
but now it is the holidays, so i will hopefully be posting alot more!
Anyway, today I have a DIY on how to make glitter heart hair pins!

YOU WILL NEED:
A few spare bobbi pins
Thin card
Scissors&Glue Stick
Hot glue gun or superglue
& Glitter

Onto your card, draw a shape that you want on you hair pin, for example a heart, and cut it out carefully.
Then, stick on a whole lot of glitter using your glue stick.
Finally stick your glittery heart onto the bobbi pin using a hot glue gun (or superglue!!)
Wait for the glue to dry and your done!
These little hair pins are so quick and make a great accesory!
Good Luck,

School Book Cover Ideas

Hello, where I live, in New Zealand,

I have already been back at school for a few weeks.

But thats no reason not to cover my books a bit late!

This year I wanted to do something a bit different.

Rather than just covering them in photos, I have come up with 4 creative ideas

to cover my books!

Here they are!

 

1: Finger Painting-  First cover your book

entirely in white paper, using a glue stick. Make sure you glue

your book all over otherwise you might get some air bubbles.

Then, simply start finger painting!

I stuck a photo of Katy Perry ontop of my spotted paper.

 

2: Brown Paper- Using brown paper cover your entire book.

Just like you did with the white paper.

This is so easy and I think it looks effective too!

If you want you can do a little collage on that like I did.

 A little sticker finishes it off nicely too.

 

3: Collage- Yes, lots of people do collages. But, this one

has a theme.

Cover the book in white paper first!

I chose the theme 'Fashion' so I cut out lots of pictures from 

magazines and brochures.

 

4: Designer Paper ( With Spine)- to make this design,

cover your book with a patterned paper that you like.

I got my paper from Typo!

Measure a strip of black paper, about 4cm wide, and as long as

your book. Fold it around the 'spine' of your book.

This means you will have 2cm's of black on each side.

Glue that on. Cut a little rectangle out of the same black paper

and stick it in the middle of your book. I wrote 'Science' on mine. as this is

my science book.

 

I hope you got some inspiration from my ideas or even try making

a few. Comment your favourite one!

XOXO,

Edie
