DIY Thursday

It's a balmy (if grey) day here on the Cape and we're starting to think that we might be out of the woods as far as this winter is concerned. We've been so very lucky to have a wonderfully mild winter (cue knocking on wood) and our thoughts are happily turning to Spring and spring parties!

Valentine's day brought out some of the cutest DIY crafts we've seen in a while, so we're excited to share these ones today!


From the always awesome Oh Happy Day comes this mini-crepe paper flower tutorial. It looked lovely with Valentine's day pinks and reds, but it would be gorgeous with any spring event we think! They're so lovely, they remind us of pressed flowers (always a romantic item!)

We're always on the lookout for both kid friendly projects and sweet favor ideas for smaller parties. This heart shaped surprise ball from Celebrate The Big and Small is perfect for both! (link via Not Martha). We love the sweet little embellishment and the idea of unwrapping one of these to find all the trinkets hidden inside.



Continuing with hearts, how cute is this origami heart garland? We love how cheerful it is, and how the papers chosen by How About Orange really draw the eye to the whole thing. Swags on a food table at a shower? A sweet row of these connecting Bride and Groom chairs? Or as a backdrop to an engagement shoot? Super sweet and easy, a perfect little project!
