Simple DIY flower pot

Well well well... someone is back after soo soo long!! :D with a small and simple DIY thing!

Imagine you getting up in the morning on such a rainy day and you see a little green puff near your window? ahh.. Fresh morning? We take interest in gardening, planting, keeping flowers in our hallway, balcony, so why not step ahead and bring this green in our bedroom?
2-3 steps of this simple DIY could actually make your morning full of freshness :)


Things Required:

1. Empty bottle (you can use empty shampoo/oil/soft drink bottle)

2. Scissor

3. Gift paper (use plastic gift paper as water may spoil the paper over the time)

4. Decorative lace/sequin tape

5. Glue



How to :

1. Wash the bottle you have taken and let it dry.

2. Remove the plastic cover.

3. Wrap the bottle up in a colorful gift paper, using glue. Make sure you use a plastic gift paper.

4. If needed, add a bit of decoration i.e decorative lace or sequin tape at the lower side of the bottle. It gives your flower pot an expensive look ;) :P

5. Put this "OH!! I made this" creation in your window and put a stem of money plant in it! Dont forget to put some water in the bottle.


And you are done ! :) Get up in the morning and please your eyes with wonderful greens!
I grow plants for many reasons: to please my eye or to please my soul, to challenge the elements or to challenge my patience, for novelty or for nostalgia, but mostly for the joy in seeing them grow.

DO try it and let me know how was your next morning :P
Regards!

Inspire, Curl, Create :)


"Get your pen and answersheet ready students, the bell will ring in a while" was the only use of paper in say 50's or 60's! And now? the world is built of papers,we can say! Paper-buildings, paper-trees, paper-roads, paper-furniture, paper-birds, paper-flowers and paper-fruits! haha! paper paper everywhere!!


well,jokes apart, but more than 99 MILLION TONS of paper and paperboards are being used by "non-paper-human being"!! Today, Paper has become "the all purpose" thing!


Imagine sitting at your kitchen table, with some narrow strips of colored papers and a tool that looks like a hat pin with handle and a small bottle of craft glue!

I am already in Love with those pretty creations!!



AND!! "Quilling" is an art that involves the use of strips of paper that are rolled, shaped, and glued together to create decorative designs..

and believe me, you can do annyyything with those paper strips! ANYTHING!! Greeting cards, flower pots, animals, bookmarks, birthday gifts, envelopes, jewels and sooo many things!! You can make all that you can imagine!


Paper Quilling Kits are available in market! Go, Get one for you and get started :D




P.S = Personally speaking, I love this art!! :D

For the love of Crayons..



So ChilBiLls.. wats new?

My first post of this very new blog is for the love of crayons.. <3
pretty little color sticks! One stroke and life becomes so colorful! Black, brown, blue, red, purple, orange, yellow, and green..

Europe is considered as the birthplace of these magic wands.. so we must thank those Europeans for filling this world with adorable colors!

As per the surveys and studies, Children ages two through eight spend an average of twenty-eight minutes a day coloring. That equals 6.3 BILLION HOURS spent coloring annually! Can you believe this?? :D

AWESOMENESS!!!

My earliest memories of making art involve the use of wax crayons. I can still remember the pleasure of opening a new box of crayons !! the distinct smell of the wax, the beautifully colored tips, everything still perfect and unused..

Using the first crayon from a new box always gave me a slight pain though...

Because of the three-dimensional nature of the crayons, the individual surface images appears to change form as one rolls the stick... The images completely disappear when viewed from close up, allowing one to read the horizontally sequenced crayon text and to take in the beautifully colored crayon tips --

--all the while being reminded of that first box of crayons.. <3
