DIY Jewellery Storage Idea – Icecream

Morning everyone, odd post today, it’s a DIY jewellery holder shaped like an icecream πŸ˜€

Apologies if this tutorial is a little vague, I’ve been sick all night/morning so if something doesn’t make sense feel free to ask in the comments and I’ll update it ^_^

Today’s post is a reader request! Many readers have written in and asked me to show them how to store certain items in a cute way. For example how to store earrings/jewelery/belts/other junk in a creative way that still displays how pretty the items are. There have been so many requests that I’m going to have to turn it into a series of posts… so this is the first.

This is for girls with a small number of earrings/rings/whatever that they want to store.

Firstly, as always you should gather your materials. I’m making mine out of felt but you could use pretty much anything.

-White Felt -Pink Felt -Brown Felt -Dark brown felt -Needle and matching thread -A small amount of stuffing, I cannibalized mine from an old pillow. -A ribbon bow -Scissors -Glue gun

DSC_0454_100124_6500 copy

Firstly grab your brown felt. and cut a circle the size you want the base of your ice cream to be. Mine was around 6cm across. Then measure out the circumference of your circle and cut two uneven rectangles (trapezium), the smaller sides should be a few mm bigger than 1/2 of the circumference of your circle, while the longer sides should be maybe 1-2cm more. This is how we’re going to make the cone part of the ice cream.

DSC_0455_100124_6499 copy

Put the two trapeziums together and use a blanket stitch down both short sides:

DSC_0458_100124_6496 copy

This bit is a little tricky but you should blanket stitch the base to the part you just made. My tip is to put an anchor stitch on each side then sew around, this way your circle doesn’t move while you’re sewing.

DSC_0459_100124_6495 copy

Now flip it inside out… and you have a cone! Go you!

DSC_0460_100124_6494 copy

Now let’s make the ice cream part πŸ˜€ Ok get your ice cream coloured felt together. You are going to need enough for 3 swirls. I am using standard sheets of felt (I think they are around A4 size). Cut one of the white pieces in half length-ways, this will form our two white swirls. Pick a contrasting colour (I’m using pink) and cut one piece the same size as the white you just did. You now have 3 pieces the same size to be used in the swirl… does that make sense?

DSC_0461_100124_6493 copy

Fold a white piece in half and loosely stitch down near the open ends so it forms a tube like this:

DSC_0462_100124_6492 copy

Fill the tube with a little stuffing, don’t use too much otherwise your ice cream will be too fat and wrinkly to roll up.

DSC_0464_100124_6490 copy

Now repeat with the other two pieces. Stack them together in order and stitch them loosely together at the bottom. You can see in this picture that I didn’t have a wide enough piece of pink felt so I had to use 2 piece stitched together >_<

DSC_0470_100124_6484 copy

Now it’s time to roll it up πŸ˜€ With the good side (the one with all 3 colours) facing you, roll the corner backwards and stitch it in place.

DSC_0468_100124_6486 copy

Keep rolling in a downwards motion so it forms the shape of an ice cream…

DSC_0471_100124_6483 copy

Stitch the bottoms in place as you go so nothing unravels.

DSC_0473_100124_6481 copy

It will probably take you a couple of goes to get it the right width for your cone as well as the right swirly effect but if you don’t like it unroll and start again until it looks like this:

DSC_0474_100124_6480 copy

Securely sew the ice cream so it’s not going to unravel and put it to the side. Get your cone part and fill it with some stuffing…

DSC_0475_100124_6479 copy

Now place your icecream in the cone and arrange the stuffing so it fits. Turn the tops of the cone over and stitch it to the icecream part.

DSC_0476_100124_6478 copy

When you’re done it should look something like this!

DSC_0477_100124_6477 copy

Now get your ribbon bow and the dark brown felt. Cut out a bunch of match sticks from the felt that are around 2/3rd the height of your cone.

DSC_0478_100124_6476 copy

If you want a really nice finish you should stitch these on but I didn’t have much time when I was doing this so I just used the hot glue gun πŸ˜‰

Anyway add your ribbon bow to the front and then glue the match sticks around the cone like this:

DSC_0479_100124_6475 copy

If you have left over felt you can make a chocolate stick to go on top by rolling a piece up and gluing it in place ^_^

DSC_0480_100124_6474 copy

And that’s finished! Now you just need to add your jewelery:

DSC_0490_100124_6464 copy

You can hang earrings in any of the swirls as well as rings and small necklaces.

DSC_0488_100124_6466 copy

The chocolate swirl is also really good for wrapping longer items around.

DSC_0491_100124_6463 copy

So there you have it, a pretty way to store smaller collections of jewelery ^_^

DSC_0499_100124_6455 copy

Next in this series of reader requests is going to be “How can I store a really large collection of earrings in a cute way?”

Thank you for everyone who has been submitting reader requests, I’m a bit behind on posting at the moment but I promise they are all on my “List of things to Post” so I will get to them eventually!

In the mean time if you have any other requests please don’t hesitate to send them to me via my Contact page.

Also let me know if you make your own DIY jewellery holder!

Video Lilac Lace Nail Art, Nail Polish storage and Eyeko Polish Review

Ok this post is pretty huge if I do say so myself, it even has two tutorials including a lilac lace nail art… that’s right two!

I’ve been getting a lot of nail polish related requests lately so here is a gigantic post to take care of some of them!

DSC_0147_100221_7697 copy

Firstly a lot of people have been asking how many nail polishes I have… the answer is 87. That sounds like a lot… and well it is a lot but I’ve collected those over the last 4 years aaaaand a lot of them were gifts and the ones I bought were all like $2 so it’s not actually the gigantic money pit it sounds like!

DSC_0103 copy

Question 2: how do I store them? Well if I’m going to be making a lot of nail art to sell at once then I set them all up on a table organized by colour. Other than that they all live in a draw organized by whatever I shoved in there first.

DSC_0098 copy

With that many polishes how do you choose colours that go well together?! Well I make swatches out of old fakes nails and paddle pop sticks like this:

DSC_0034_091215_4861 copy

I got the idea from one of your blogs actually… but I can’t for the life of me find the post and I’ve been searching all morning >_< If it was you just let me know in the comments because I want to credit you!! *edit* some has said it was invented by “krisprimps.bradandkris.com” but I haven’t ever been to her blog so I must have seen it somewhere else!*/edit*

DSC_0036_091215_4859 copy

A random selection:

DSC_0042_091215_4853 copy

I use white nail tips so when I need to test out how opaque a white polish is I paint the tips black first.

DSC_0038_091215_4857 copy

So how do you make them? Well let me show you with the new Lilac polish that Eyekowas kind enough to send me πŸ˜€

DSC_0086_100221_7758 copy

Gather all the items above, you need: -A glue gun -Paddle pop sticks -A pen -Old false nail tips -Various polishes you want to swatch, I try to save them up and do around 10 at a time.

DSC_0101_100221_7743 copy

First count how many polishes you have and get that many paddle pop sticks and nail tips.

DSC_0089_100221_7755 copy

Heat your glue gun and put some glue on the back curve of one of the nail tips.

DSC_0091_100221_7753 copy

Press it down onto the edge of the paddle pop stick. Be very careful not to burn yourself!

DSC_0095_100221_7749 copy

Add some extra glue to the back to make sure everything is secure.

DSC_0096_100221_7748 copy

Rinse and repeat for how ever many you need…

DSC_0099_100221_7745 copy

Now wait until all of that is dry and paint one coat of polish over the whole thing.

DSC_0111_100221_7733 copy

Wait for it to dry!

DSC_0115_100221_7729 copy

While we’re waiting for it to dry here’s a mini review of the Eyeko polish:

The application was quite good it was a nice consistency and very shiny after application. It was opaque/the colour in the bottle after 2 coats. This next photo is a really good representation of the colour, it’s nice and soft and reminds me a lot of OPI “Do you lilac it?”. I didn’t find the smell of the polish over powering either which was nice.

DSC_0113_100221_7731 copy

The packaging is super cute too which is a plus!

DSC_0002_100219_7673 copy

The bottle is quite small at 8.5ml for Β£3 but for a boutique company that seems to be fairly standard. So the verdict = good! Everything they have is themed on a very cute manga which they update on the site every week, here’s some of the cute info they sent through:

DSC_0003_100219_7672 copy

Now back to the tutorial! After the first coat is dry write the name and colour of the polish on the other end of the stick!

DSC_0116_100221_7728 copy

Just like this πŸ˜€

DSC_0118_100221_7726 copy

Now time for the second coat, this time you should only paint the top 2/3rds of the nail.

DSC_0126_100221_7718 copy

Then leave that to dry. Once it’s dry you should paint one final coat on the top 1/3rd of the nail.

DSC_0137_100221_7707 copy

So you should have something like this, the numbers represent the number of coats. This doesn’t mean much for a polish as opaque as this one but when you have a more sheer polish it’s much more useful to know how many coats you’ll need for the finish you want. Now you can see at a glance without having to trial and error it every time.

DSC_0142_100221_7702 copy

This is an example of some polishes where the differences are a little more obvious, especially the orange.

DSC_0147_100221_7697 copy

So there you have it! Now it’s time for a nail art tutorial πŸ˜€ Today we’re going to make a pretty but easy lace finish on a base of the Eyeko Lilac Polish. Video is below!

<div-id= “lilac”>

Hope you enjoyed the double tutorial post! And please let me know if you have any other nail art related questions <3

Let me know what you think of it all especially the lilac lace nail art, I want to do more tutorials ^_^

Super Quick Shoe Tutorial – Cutifying

This is a super easy tutorial on how I modified some old sneakers for ultimate shoe cutifying. I find that I need shoes that I can just slip on to run to the petrol station for an ice cream or the corner store for supplies, for times when you just want to get going as fast as possible having complicated shoes really isn’t practical, no time for laces… but I still want to look cute!

DSC_0185_091206_4436 copy

Enter old beaten up leopard print sneakers.

Materials for shoe cutifying:

-Old crappy sneakers -Ribbon -Elastic -Sewing thread

First off clean your sneakers if they are dirty, no one wants to handle muddy shoes.

DSC_0163_091206_4458 copy

Then remove the laces.

DSC_0164_091206_4457 copy

Now you need some elastic which is roughly the same width as your laces were. Colours are optional, I decided to go with plain because I’m probably going to be trekking through mud in these and I didn’t want to waste anything too nice!

DSC_0165_091206_4456 copy

Pull the elastic through a bottom hole and tie a knot at the bottom which is big enough to prevent it from slipping through.

DSC_0166_091206_4455 copy

Bring the elastic over the top and down through the other bottom hole.

DSC_0167_091206_4454 copy

Continue to the next hole, it should look like this once you get to the top…

DSC_0168_091206_4453 copy

When you get to the last hole cut off the excess elastic and then tie another knot. Before you cut the elastic off you should try the shoe on to make sure it’s not going to be too loose or too tight. You should be able to slide your foot in with no problems.

DSC_0169_091206_4452

Repeat with the other shoe!

DSC_0170_091206_4451 copy

Now get some thick ribbon and thread your needle. Fold it in half with the join at the back and pleat the middle into a bow…

DSC_0171_091206_4450 copy

Sew it in place:

DSC_0172_091206_4449 copy

Now use some thin ribbon to cover the stitching and sew that in place.

DSC_0173_091206_4448 copy

Attach them to the elastic with a few tight stitches and you’re done! When you’re attaching the bows it’s a good idea to do it while you’re wearing the shoes so you know they will end up in the right position when the elastic is stretched out. Be very careful not to hurt yourself with the needle though!

DSC_0174_091206_4447 copy

And there you go!

DSC_0179_091206_4442 copy

Quick comfy shoes that are good in a hurry.

DSC_0180_091206_4441 copy

Very little effort involved, I think this took me around 20 minutes while I was watching a movie. It’s amazing what adding a bow can do πŸ˜‰

DSC_0185_091206_4436 copy

Only 2 days left until we go to Melbourne so I’m in crazy packing/planning mode πŸ˜€ Hope you enjoyed the super quick shoe cutifying tutorial, I’m off to take some photos of the deco I did over the weekend for you guys!

How To Make Bunny Slippers Out of Old Socks

Today I’m going to show you how I went about making bunny slippers out of house hold items, trust me it’s not as hard as you think!

This post is for Eszwho is awesome and won the name my camera competition. She asked for a post about how I turn something ordinary into something awesomely cute. I thought what better than turning something old and useless into something cute?

DSC_0519_100118_6136 copy

So today’s tutorial is going to be about how to turn some old socks and a pillow into…Β  cute bunny slippers!

UPDATE! Check out the free downloadable restyled version of this craft tutorial here in my gallery!

Β 

What you need for this version of making bunny slippers:

-3 old knee high socks -1 pair of old ankle socks -Cardboard -Old pillow -Pen -Scissors -Needle and thread DSC_0405_100118_6249 copy

First put your foot on the cardboard and trace around it with your pen.

DSC_0411_100118_6243 copy

Do one for each foot:

DSC_0417_100118_6237 copy

Now draw around the shape you made, leave around a 1cm gap and make the shape more rounded and even. This will be the base of your slipper so you want room to wiggle and move around a bit ^_^

DSC_0418_100118_6236 copy

Cut out the larger shape.

DSC_0423_100118_6231 copy

This is what you end up with!

DSC_0426_100118_6228 copy

Now grab your old ankle socks, this works best if they are the thick and kind of squishy like those sports socks.

DSC_0427_100118_6227 copy

Put the cardboard bits you cut out into the socks.

DSC_0428_100118_6226 copy

You should fit the heel of the cardboard into the heel of the sock, it should end up like this:

DSC_0431_100118_6223 copy

Next you should cut up your pillow to get some stuffing out! If it’s a really old pillow it will look kind of gross like this…

DSC_0435_100118_6219 copy

So what you need to do is shove the stuffing into the bottom side of the cardboard. That means the side that doesn’t have the sock hole on it will end up thick and squishy.

DSC_0436_100118_6218 copy

This is what it should look like from the side…

DSC_0439_100118_6215 copy

The hole part of the sock is in the bottom of the picture above. Now take your needle and thread and sew up the hole ^_^

DSC_0452_100118_6202 copy

Just like this:

DSC_0458_100118_6197 copy

Now you have the bases of your slippers!

DSC_0459_100118_6196 copy

Ok next part! Get one of your other socks and put your foot on the base you just made. Lay the leg part of the sock over your foot like the photo below and cut it out so you have enough of it to sew to the base.

DSC_0460_100118_6195 copy

Keep the fabric as a tube because later we’re going to stuff it. This is roughly the shape it should be:

DSC_0462_100118_6193 copy

Put a little stitch at the toe of base and the top part we’re about to sew on. This is just to keep it in place and make sure it doesn’t move around, if you would prefer just add some pins.

DSC_0466_100118_6189 copy

Put the top part on the side of the base that doesn’t have any stuffing on it. We are going to sew it on the wrong side so we can turn it inside out and hide the stitching later. So pick a side and start sewing around.

DSC_0469_100118_6186 copy

Keep sewing all the way around to the other side until you have around a 4cm gap left. Now grab some stuffing and shove it into the upper part.

DSC_0474_100118_6181 copy

Now sew up the last little part and you end up with something like this:

DSC_0481_100118_6174 copy

Turn it inside out and the padded bottom should be where your foot will go and the padded front should be enough to cover your toes.

DSC_0483_100118_6172 copy

Like this:

DSC_0484_100118_6171 copy

Now make the other one!

DSC_0488_100118_6167 copy

And now it’s time to make some ears for our bunny ^_^ Get another of the knee high socks and cut the top and bottom off so you’re just left with a tube.

DSC_0490_100118_6165 copy

Cut down the folds and then in half so you end up with 4 parts.

DSC_0494_100118_6161 copy

Take each of these and fold them in half and cut the top into a bunny ear shape.

DSC_0496_100118_6159 copy

Sew around the edges…

DSC_0498_100118_6157 copy

Then turn them inside out and stuff them too.

DSC_0501_100118_6154 copy

This is what you should end up with:

DSC_0507_100118_6148 copy

Decide how you want to place them on your slippers, I want them to be nice and pointy so I am going to put them close together.

DSC_0508_100118_6147 copy

Turn your slipper inside out and sew on the ears.

DSC_0512_100118_6143 copy

When you turn it back out the right way it should look like this:

DSC_0516_100118_6139 copy

Clean up any loose threads you have.

DSC_0517_100118_6138 copy

And decorate them! I embroidered little faces on to the bunnies and then using some stuffing I made a little cotton tail to sew on the back ^_^

DSC_0519_100118_6136 copy

And there you go! This is how they look when they’re on ^_^

DSC_0529_100118_6126 copy

So you just made slippers out of old junk around the house, congrats! Pretty cool huh?

DSC_0532_100118_6123 copy

And you know the best part? They are awesomely comfortable because of the padding and they stay on well because of the elasticity of the socks!

What do you think?

Thanks again Esz, I hope you like it πŸ˜€ Let me know if any of you give making bunny slippers a try!
