Super easy bunting DIY


I love bunting! It's so easy to make and then you can use it to decorate pretty much anything. I made several of them for my shop and it really brightens up the place. I recently made some for my soon-to-be-sister-in-law's birthday party and everyone loved it! 

What you need:
  1. Some colour paper - or any paper you like. You can use old magazine, newspaper, wrapping paper, postcards, old calendar... The possibilities are endless!
  2. Scissors
  3. Hole puncher
  4. String
  5. Pencil and ruler



So here's how to do it in three easy steps:


1.  Cut strips of paper of the same high - that's how high your triangles are going to be. 



2. Draw triangles on the strips and cut them out. Mine were 12cm wide - I marked every 12cm on top of my strip and then did the same on bottom, but the first mark was at 6cm (and then every 12cm). Then I simply joined the dots and got perfect triangles :)





3. Punch hole each triangle and put the string through the holes. Continue until you have your desired length and ta-da! You have your own bunting!





I do apologise if my instructions are not clear - I'm totally rubbish at writing tutorials... Hope you can understand it anyway. Have fun!

I'm working on few bunting projects and will share them with you soon!

If only...

If only I had one of those, I would take hundreds photos a day and then put them all on my wall like this:




A camera is a definite number one on my Christmas Wish List (do you hear me Mr. Boyfriend?)
What ´s on yours?

The cutest things

Bows are the cutest, the sweetest, the girliest things. Ever. You can't go wrong with a bow. And they go with everything. And no one, ever, will convince me otherwise. Why I never wore them? From now on I'll have them on every single day!








We have bow rings, necklaces and earrings in the shop for sale from Monday! 
PS. The photos are not mine (I'm still without a camera!). I've been collecting photos from the internet for ages and I don't know where I found them.. If I post something that belongs to you let me know and I'll put your credits.
PS2. Although I don't have a camera I will keep on blogging so stay tuned!

A quick hello!

Hello!
I'm busy in the shop re-organising, making some Christmas stuff and painting the changing room. And I'm having a really good time doing it! I still haven't got a camera so I can't share any pictures with you... Sorry!

Just wanted to say hello

In the shop

I've just realised it's been two weeks since I'd posted anything on the blog. I'm pretty busy in the shop - working on the changing room (managed to pre-paint three walls so far...), ordering, choosing products, ordering... And I love it!
We've been opened for a month now and I feel like celebrating this little anniversary. Wine, cupcakes, friends. Sounds good, don't you think?

I don't think I shared that with you - my little shop on Isak web. We're the only ones in Slovakia to sell those beautiful, happy things made by Sandra Isaksson. And we are really proud of it too!


I know I've already shared the picture...Now you see how desperately I need to buy a camera!
