DIY Halloween Lanterns-Scarry Monsters Decorative Jars


Halloween is approaching  fast so I thought of showing you guys an easy and cheap way to create scary unique lanterns,  that you can use to decorate your living room or your house entrance to scare off the unwanted visitors.Muhaha!

For this you will need just some jars, a glue gun and some acrylic paint. Don't use spray paint because it's toxic and flammable!

The secret ingredient for this is the scary face pattern that I've created for you specially so you can download for free and use in your projects.


To download this click HERE










But of course that you can draw your own scary faces, and you will be saving some time and paper.

Print this in a size that once you cut out a face, it will fit your jar. If you are using 500 ml jars I recommend printing this on A4 paper. I've used some small kitchen jars from the dollar store so I printed this 4x6 inches on A4 sliced in 2.

Here is the video that shows you all the steps:

Bee Hive Vase- DIY- Recycling Project



I just love this new home decor trend, that suggest luxury - through  its colors(mostly gold ) , but also simplicity- through geometry. Because most of the items out there are pretty expensive I challenged myself to create something similar using cheap materials , or why not, through recycling .So here is my idea: a bee hive vase made out of a plastic bottle!

Materials:
1.Plastic bottle (try to find one with a smooth surface)
2. Bee hive pattern- >


 you can download it for free HERE






3. Glue gun - (for this project I consumed 3 glue sticks)
4. Golden spray paint - if this seems too much to buy -don't worry- you will definitely use it on future project (I already used it 5 times ! and I have enough left)


 5.Scissors and sticky tape


To see how it's done check out video bellow:

Retro No Numbers Clock


I always found no numbers clock very cool. We should stop being so addicted to time, and stop checking it so often. (Well expect when you have an important meeting to attend to ).
I also  love retro/ vintage clock designs. You can still find them at vintage shops if you're lucky, and sometimes they can get expensive. Here is a fun way to create your own, using a Pringels can! (next time you enjoy a can of chips , don't throw that away )
