We are planning to embark on a mini room makeover for Harriet these holidays. While madly pinning inspiration I have been sidetracked by some super colourful, DIY craft projects that I think we could also tackle in the break.
Those who know me, understand my reluctance to take on handcrafted projects myself. I am all about discovering and sharing, and not so much about the making. Two left thumbs and zero patience I'm afraid.
That being said, even I could potentially pull off one of these naive but very sweet decorative pieces...
...and the colours are sure to brighten up a gloomy Winter's afternoon.
Instructions for these Cardboard Rainbow Collages are from The Art Bar :

Yarn Bombing appears to be very therapeutic. All that wrapping and twisting. The tee-pee image is from Natalie Miller who runs textile workshops.
Or if you prefer sending the creativity (ie: mess) outside the home, look into a crafting course. We are lucky enough to have Makers Loft near by, where weekly craft lessons, craft parties & holiday workshops take place.
I was scrolling through their website and noticed a photo from a craft party we hosted a few years back:
I for one, will be trying to introduce some making these holidays that doesn't include "fluffy slime".
Enjoy.
