Vaikka k\u00e4ytin materiaalina tuollaista mainoskataloogia, n\u00e4ist\u00e4 tuli oikein hauskoja koristeita. Arvelisin ett\u00e4 mit\u00e4 tahansa j\u00e4m\u00e4kk\u00e4\u00e4 paperia voi k\u00e4ytt\u00e4\u00e4 n\u00e4ihin, esim v\u00e4rillist\u00e4 tulostuspaperia tai tapettia. Miksei jotain v\u00e4rikk\u00e4it\u00e4 mainoksiakin, tai nuotteja tai vaikka vanhoja monisteita tai huonon kirjan sivuja, kunhan paperi on v\u00e4h\u00e4n tukevampaa niin ett\u00e4 pysyy kuosissaan. Glitterin voi korvata vaikka kimalleliimalla, pit\u00e4\u00e4 vaan antaa kuivahtaa niin ettei tartu kiinni mihink\u00e4\u00e4n muualle. Ja jos ei tykk\u00e4\u00e4 glitterist\u00e4 niin tokihan n\u00e4it\u00e4 voi askarrella ihan ilman glitteri\u00e4kin n\u00e4teist\u00e4 skr\u00e4pp\u00e4yspapereista. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nI wanted to make more Christmas decorations again this year, because we will have two Christmas trees instead of one. So we need more decorations obviously. I want to put one tree in the lobby, so that candles will shine through the lobby windows. In the living room we got roller blinds which are close in the evening. Our house is only couple meters from the road, so everyone driving past can see in to our living room in the evening. Also neighbours driveway is right opposite to our livingroom window. We don’t want to be on display in the evening when it gets dark, so we close the curtains. Therefore the Christmas tree in our living room does not shine to the passersby. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I decided to make some more decoration. This time using recycled material, as I often do. Several years ago my friend gave me this very pretty catalog for interior design products; jewelry boxes, candle sticks, Christmas decoration and so on. I cut out identical decorative shapes from prettiest pages, and folded them in half. Then I glued some glitter on the edges. I finished them by sewing them together with sturdy thread and making a loop at the end for hanging. To make sewing easier, I puncture the layers with an awl. I used 8 layers of paper for each. You can find tutorial with more specific instructions from this Sinelli-page<\/a> (in Finnish though).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Even though I used something like that, simple product catalog, these turned out quite nice. I think any sturdy paper will do. Colourfull printing paper, wallpaper, even colourfull adds, musical notes or even old paper copies or pages from a bad book. As long as the paper holds the shape well. Glitter can be replaced with glitter glue. It just needs to dry without touching anything. And if you don’t like glitter, feel free to make these without it, perhaps from pretty scrap-book papers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Halusin t\u00e4n\u00e4kin vuonna askarrella lis\u00e4\u00e4 joulukoristeita, syyst\u00e4 ett\u00e4 meill\u00e4 on nyt paljon enemm\u00e4n tilaa ja t\u00e4n\u00e4 vuonna meill\u00e4 on per\u00e4ti kaksi joulukuusta. Koristeitakin tarvitaan entist\u00e4 enemm\u00e4n. Kuistille halusin laittaa toisen joulukuusen ihan siksi, ett\u00e4 sen valot tuikkisivat kivasti kuistin ikkunoista ohikulkijoille. Salissa meill\u00e4 on pimennysverhot jotka ovat aina pime\u00e4n aikaan suljettuina. Talon sein\u00e4 on vain… <\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/paperipallurat1.jpg?resize=759%2C1024\")
