Paper crafting with Ms Juliet


Ms Juliet and I did some Sunday paper crafting with a magazine poster from one of my favourite magazines Frankie.


First we tried to make a paper house. Here's the shape we cut out, and glued to some thicker cardboard.


Folding did not yield a house, but we improvised and made it into a pretty cute gift box.


Attempt number 2, the same shape was cut, but this time we actually made a house. How cute is it?


After a job well done, and with Mr Crafty having to work on a Sunday (Boo!), we decided to take a break for milk and biscuits.


This yielded some materials for our next project. It was all in the name of art really.


Milk cartoons are already waterproof, and make super cute vases. Cut pieces of paper up, glue them on, and then paint a couple of layers of watered down pva glue over the paper to waterproof the finish.

I think it looks adorable. Does anyone else want to try one? Cute mother's day gift perhaps?
