Tribal Collar.


Inspired by a CKS necklace, that I couldn't find anywhere, I made my own DIY version. Hope you like it!

The CKS - version:

What do you need
- craft foam in different colours
- paper to make a template
- ribbon

extra: scissors, glue


Tutorial



Step by step
1) Make a template out of paper
2) Cut out the template and afterwards cut out the basis of the necklace by using the template
3) Cut out the squares and triangles
4) Place them before gluing
5) Add the ribbons
   TIP: You can always use magnets or pins if you do want to use ribbon

Here you go!

Cookie Stamp.

I always wanted a cookie stamp. But I found them a little expensive for the times I would use it. It's not that I am baking making cookies every week...
So I tried to make my own DIY version. Hope you like it!

What you'll need
- A craft foam sheet
- foam letters - For Belgium & The Netherlands: I found mine at Hema
   - But you can also make them yourself using the foam sheet! -
- some glue

extra: a good cookie recipe

Tutorial

Step by step
1) Decide what sentence you want to appear on your cookie and look for the letters.
   TIP: You can make the letters smaller by cutting them with scissors!
2) Cut out a square out of the foam sheet
3) To give the stamp enough relief I used two layers of letters
4) Paste them together
5) Glue them onto the square but TAKE NOTICE the letters are mirrored (!)
6) Prepare a great cookie recipe. I used one from Dagelijkse Kost  
7) Stamp them!
8) Bake and enjoy them!
