DIY Bookmarks a Fun Actuvity for Kids and Adults

Image
Today I have a fun craft for everyone that you can do with things from around the house. This is a very very simple DIY/craft you can do when you feel creative We are making our own bookmarks. In order to make the bookmarks you can either repurpose old things from around the house or use any craft supplies you have. For this craft you’ll need: 1. A piece of cardboard or an old notebook with hard covers. 2. Glue  3. Scissors  4. Ruler or something to draw straight lines with. 5. Pencil  6. Stickers or newspaper scraps to decorate with. 7. A big book  Now let’s get into the steps: 1. Gather the things you will need. 2. Measure how long you want your bookmarks, I made two  sizes one 15x5 cm and one 14x4 cm, those are great sizes but honestly you can kind of eyeball it and make it however long you want it. 3. If you are making a cardboard one you probably only need one piece depending on the thickness, if you are using notebook covers I suggest using two both so you can

December Bullet Journal Set Up

 In this post I will show you my spreads for the month of December. These are the spreads that have proven to be the most useful for me and I use them every month. The way I usually decide my month’s theme is by color so a color or two would be the theme. Because of the holidays this month the theme is green and red the whole month is very festive and I tried to make it as jolly as possible.                                   In the beginning of every month I do a collage, this month’s collage was dedicated to the holidays and the green and red color scheme, as I said before.                                This is the month overview where I note any events, deadlines etc. On the right I have a goals column where I write the things I want to do by the end of the month. I played a lot with green and red and interchanging the colors to make it more exciting. The way I designed the calendar is quite minimalist, I have done the standard calendar before but I find this way more interesting.

How I revamped my old picture frames

  So one day I was chilling in my room with my boyfriend and he started commenting on the pictures I had up on my walls and that’s when it hit me I have way to many baby pictures of myself up. Also why the fuck do I have orange and yellow picture frames in a purple and grey room and why so many baby pictures I’m 19 literally why.   That’s how I decided to revamp my picture frames by painting them and changing the pictures in them.   This is the before (well actually I forgot to take a before picture so this is after I sanded them down)                                    1. The first thing you want to do is sanding them down so the paint will pick up better and show up more. You don’t have to sand them too much and spend too much time doing it just get rid of the shine.                                           As you can see my colorful picture frames where slightly sanded and in my wooden ones the sanding didn’t even make any difference.   2.Choose your colors, depending o

A Few Things About Me

  I thought having a blog would be cool but you know I am a 19 year old white girl in the middle of a pandemic stuck at home how many stories would I have to say, but you know I’ll figure it out. Firstly let me tell you a few things about myself: ·         I live in Athens, Greece ·         I am studying business administration ·         I have a boyfriend and a quite big and weird friend group, all of those relationships are rather fluid right now so I guess you will hear a lot about them ·         I like bullet journaling ·         I quit social media a few months ago, except for Pinterest, Youtube and Netflix   I try to keep a diary every couple of days or so, meaning that a lot of my uploads will be journal entries giving you a more realistic view of my life. Also because I am Greek please excuse my English if it’s sometimes bad. That’s it for today thanks for tuning in!  ðŸ’—💗 Social Media: Twitter: @msnopes Pinterest: @justakidd6 Facebook: Just Kid
