Sending snail mail is so much fun, I miss the days when you send letters to your friends and you purchase a stamp and wait days for them to receive it. From now on I want to make an effort to make cute little cards, letters and envelopes to send to my friends and family because it does really make a difference. The other day I sent a birthday card and personalized the envelope and it turned out pretty sweet, so I thought I would share with you guys how to create your own personalized envelope lining

Cinco de Mayo is this weekend and today’s DIY flower piñata will add a fun pop of color to your celebration!

It adds such a fun, unexpected touch when you break open the piñata and colorful flowers come tumbling out! Read more »

i absolutely love the idea of putting flowers inside instead of candy! I remember making paper mache pinatas like this in elementary school on several occasions. I think I'm gonna have to give it another try this weekend!
Spring/summer is the perfect time for garden parties and decorating for the occasion is pretty fun, too. For a DIY this week we wanted to show you how to create cute little paper butterflies that will hang whimsically from your garden trees. You don’t need much, just paper, a pair of scissors, and a piece of string and you can create 5-minute decorations quickly and easily. Here’s how to create summer origami butterflies for your garden party

I LOVE your blog. It's absolutely fantastic. Your blog makes me want to do things all the time. Just get creative with EVERYTHING. You should see how my room and style have developed after beginning to read your blog. Also you should really open a store in Gothenburg... Btw, I did this DIY but with gorgeous fabric in different sizes and colors and hanged it on a line over my bed. It looks so cosy and nice, thanks for the tip and keep up with the good work! // From a happy 16 year old girl in Sweden :))

Great pics Julia, very well done. Where did you get the Krazy glue, and citronella oil from? Going to give it go :) These would love great in my Garden in the summer. I've got some spray instead of the oil, that could work. Sarah Midland

A good way to clear out candle jars is to warm up the glass in the oven. The wax turns soft and poof! it's super easy to scoop out :) I always keep the jars from my candles and use them as storage or as a jar for a homemade candle!
Everyone needs coasters in their household to protect the surface of a table when placing down a drink. This week’s DIY shows you how you can make quick and easy coasters that could be great for a gift to friends or just to personalize your home a little. Here’s how to make a weaved thread coaster!

I made one of these over the weekend using two wooden beads in place of ball caps and embroidery floss instead of colored cord. The floss just needs to be double stranded to make it thicker. I thought I'd mention this because I came home to find I only had brown leather cording, no caps and didn't feel like driving to the craft store.
Springtime is the perfect time of year to start potting some plants to make an area become full bloom. For this week’s DIY we wanted to create our very own plant holder using a cement mix. It’s easy, quick and fun to do when you have a couple of hours to spare. The decorating of the pot afterwards is pretty great, too – you can personalize it any way you like!

Hi Bonnie, the cement was poured with the smaller container inside the larger one, surprisingly a layer of cement seeps under and then you put a light weight inside just to hold in place. don't use a heavy weight :)
It’s day 1 of Coachella and we are in full festival spirit. As we enter into the amazing time that is festival season, we wanted to pull together a couple of our favorite festival-related DIYs! Some useful, some purely fun. Enjoy! Read more »

Oh I think the flag is a great idea! I have a tipee by Zandra Rhodes (kooky English designer) and that flag would go great on top! Check out the tipee, it's a beaut: http://www.graziadaily.co.uk/fashion/archive/2010/01/19/zandra-rhodes-funky-teepee.htm Here's my UK festival experience: http://worthwakingupfor.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/latitude-attitude.html

Going to try some of the DIY's
This DIY is perfect for the spring and summer months when all you want to do is nestle outside and soak up the lovely weather. Come the weekend you pack up your things and head to the park or the beach. If you’re like me and like to take along with you magazines/books and a sketch pad this DIY will come in handy for you: paper weights!
