Inspiring image of the day.

Ideas can come from anywhere, most importantly the internet. I have realized no matter what profession you belong to creativity and inspiration are two elements that are fundamental to task, unless you're a number puncher, in which case grab a dictionary and look up these words. 

A lot of things inspire me. So, I have decided to share some with you, who knows it might get the cogwheels of your mind turning! 

Cupcake Flower Holder.

I found this amazingly simple decorative centerpiece online and I thought of it as a must-share piece.

What you need:
Large zig-zag or similar pot
Floral form (if you can't find a ball shape you can cut it to size)
Candle
Seasonal flowers
Ribbon

The Creation:
Take the floral ball/cut-to-size foam and place it in the zig-zag pot. Insert the candle in the foam (wet the foam for a longer lasting piece) carefully and securely wedge it in. Don't put it all the way down. Now start putting in the seasonal flowers and fill it to the brim (Motia will look absolutely gorgeous and smell wonderful - just saying). Then, tie the ribbon around the candle.

And your piece is ready!

Paper Wheels Backdrop.

Remember how we made fans with paper when we were kids? Took a sheet of paper and started with the accordion fold, held the finished strip in our hand from one end and spread the the other end.

Well, who new that can turn into a nifty backdrop one day!


















Here's how I did it:

Take papers of different colours and sizes. The minimum and maximum depend depends completely on you. My smallest size was 5"x4" and the largest wet to 12"x11". I took wrapping sheets and coloured A4 paper that went with my theme.


For one paper wheel you will require two folded fans. So, take your paper and fold it into an accordion style.




Do the same to the other sheet of paper and put he two back to back.



Take a string and tie the two fans tightly together.





 Next, tape or staple the gaping edges, I stapled them. Go all the the way around until you have a wheel.








Once you have enough pieces to fill the size of your backdrop started making a collage of paper wheels and stick them with hot glue.

 Ta daa!
