IN GOOD HANDS - Washi Tape Wednesday

washi wall backdrop

It's Washi tape Wednesday and we found a great idea from Martha Stewart Weddings. Here they used flagging tape but Washi tape would work just as well to make a photo booth backdrop. Perfect for a party and I also think a good idea to decorate a room on a budget or for the background of your Christmas card! (yes! I said it "Christmas!").

GOOD LOOKS - Halloween is Here

haunted house

Halloween is "in the house"! And pretty creepy stuff indeed. My favourite is the Haunted House centrepiece. I just finished making one to display in the shop and it is pretty amazing if I say so myself. It even has a little mini side table in the bedroom that lights up! It is really easy to make and is a great price of 24CHF - and your kids could even make it up as a little Halloween party activity.

GOODIES - Pick up Sticks

pick up sticks

The game of Pick Up Sticks is believed to have originated in 12th Century China, sticks were used to make predictions, thrown down on a table and read in a similar way to Rune stones.

The name Pick Up Sticks may have come from this children's nursery rhyme:
One, two, buckle my shoe,
Three, four, shut the door
Five, six, pick-up sticks
Seven, eight, lay them straight,
Nine, ten, a big fat hen!
