DIY Candle Jars | Blogmas day 13

Hello everyone! So today I have got a quick little DIY for you. I was once again scrolling through pinterest and I saw a lot of DIY candle jars and thought I would have a go myself. They are super easy and really quick to make and they look so cute! What you will need to make these jars are:

-A jar

-Table slat

-Ribbon

-Candles

-Baubles

-Any other Christmas decorations

For this one you need a small jar. Pour your table salt into the jar and put your tea-lights in the salt. Then tie a ribbon around the jar. I really like this one as it is simple and has a rustic feel to it with the rope.

This one is pretty much the same as the last on but with a bigger jar and some baubles. I chose to tie white rope and red ribbon around this one as it matched the candle and the baubles.

I think this one would look really cute as a table centre piece or just placed on your bedside table. I love the little tree in the middle of this one. Also if you have any other decorations such as a little reindeer etc. then you could always make a little snowy scene which I think would look really nice.

This one is really simple but really cute with the white rope and I like the blue and white colour scheme as it makes it look frosty.

This one is kind of just a smaller snowy scene. I really like the look of the frosty white baubles as they look really nice with the blue ribbon.

Which one was your favourite?

A Pinterest Christmas | Blogmas day 10

Hello Everyone!

So it is only day 10 and i am already running out of ideas for blogmas, however I am definitely going to keep going. 

So recently I have been really loving Pinterest, I have been constantly scrolling through my feed looking through DIYs and inspiration, especially Christmas themed. So today I thought I would share with you a few of my favourite DIYs that I have seen so far...

First up is these really cute DIY snow globes. I think they all look so simple but so pretty. I also think that they would be really nice gifts as they show you have put some time and effort into them.

I have seen lots of different food DIYs on pinterest recently and I really like these ones where old jars have been recycled. I have also seen a few with hot chocolate sets in them and also little sleighs made from a selection of chocolate bars.

So these pretty baubles keep popping up on my pinterest feed, and I think they are so well made and they look really good, I love the rustic feel to them and I think they would look great on a traditional tree.

I just couldn't not put this one in! I absolutely loved Frozen and just thought this was such a clever idea and really easy to make.

I think this would be an ideal stocking filler for pretty much any girl, weather it's a friend or your mom. I also think it would make a really cute secret santa gift as it probably won't cost that much to make. Also you can personalise it and decorate it as much as you like.

I think this is such a cute decoration which you could put in your bedroom if you didn't want to go all out with the Christmas decor. 

I am hoping to try some christmassy DIY and I may even post about it if it goes well. Check back tomorrow for Blogmas Day 11

It's begining to look a lot like christmas | Blogmas 7

Hello Everybody!

I finally got round to putting my Christmas decorations up in my room and im quite happy with how they look, even though none of the colours match  :) 

I bought this banner from the pound shop yesterday and I love it. it's not badly made and it looks really cute, however I had to thread all of the letters through the ribbon which was a little time consuming. I think it looks really nice hanging from my shelf with the icicles draped behind it.

I bought the little red tree lantern from B&M yesterday for just £1 in the sale and then picked up these 2 christmassy scented candles for £1 each too. I may have gone slightly overboard on the candles this year as i have another 3 or 4 dotted around my room. I think candles make everything super cosy and christmassy.

I also got this sign from B&M for another pound, the only annoying thing is is that it is getting glitter everywhere :D 

And last but not least is my mini tree which i got from the range last year, and although it doesn't match the red and white theme i really love how these colours look together!

What colour are your Christmas decorations?
