Box of Light

[Simple Craft 075] Light Box 2 – A Decorative Piece for the Windowsill (Light Box)

Would you like to make a light box with a beautiful appearance? All you need are a tissue box, thermal aluminum sheet, and a clear file folder.

First, cut out the tissue box.

Next, cut the thermal aluminum sheet into thin strips, roll them up, and pack them inside the box.

Finally, color the clear file, attach it to the box, and close it up to finish.

It won’t light up on its own, but when sunlight hits it, it shines like stained glass.

Try finishing it with colors and patterns that match your room’s design.

Cute herbarium

[100-Yen DIY] Easy, Cute Herbarium – Perfect for a Summer Vacation Craft! Daiso Arrangement

Why not try making a herbarium, a popular interior decoration? Prepare a container, your favorite flowers and beads, and baby oil.

First, place the flowers and beads into the container, being careful not to overfill it.

Also, if anything tends to float when put in liquid, soak it in the liquid beforehand.

Once you’ve added all the parts, slowly pour in the baby oil, close the container lid, and it’s done.

You can also focus on choosing a stylish container and decorate it with stickers or washi tape to make it extra cute.
