DIY #2: Flower on the Wall


Bare walls are so, well, boring. So we thought of this D-I-Y craft project which is so easy to do, takes less time and looks pretty.



Things you will need:


  • Toilet paper roll - 3nos.
  • Paint/Spray Paint
  • Paint Brush
  • Adhesive Glue
  • Scissors


Directions:



  • Take a toilet paper roll and cut it into small sections of equal size.




  • Paint them using either water/oil paint or spray paint(recommended).

  • Take each segment and flatten it using your hand.
  • Stick the edges of any four segments together, thereby forming the below figure.


  • Keep filling the gap between these four segments using the other segments. Do this until u reach the desired size.

  • Stick it on your wall.
Note: Took us almost 2 hours. Have fun :)

DIY #1: Butterflies on the wall

What is not to love about Gossip Girl? The clothes, accessories, never-ending drama of the upper-east side, glitzy parties...and Serena's room decor. 


So we totally loved the Butterflies on her Wall and took it up as a DIY project. The end result is this:





All it took was 2 hours of work, brown craft papers, a pair of scissors and super adhesive glue and voila it was done!

Here's a gist of how we made it:
1) We cut out the craft paper in the form of butterflies in 3 different shapes, small, medium and large. 
2) We placed the medium and small "butterflies" in the focal of the "art" in concentric circles.
3) We randomly scattered the rest of the butterflies in such a manner that it looks like the butterflies are flying away from the focal point.
4) Notice that the whole "art" is oval.


Hope you guys like it! 

P.S.: This is one of our first D-I-Y projects and it's suitable for beginners.
