Friends’ Keepsake Box
Posted on 3 June 2012 | Comments Off
Friendship is a feeling of love and affection of one person for another. This feeling of love must be reciprocated. Otherwise friendship cannot be possible.
Friendship does not exist where tastes, feelings and sentiments are not similar.
It is said that a friend in need is a friend in deed. We can examine the sincerity of a friend during our time of hardship and trouble.
Only a sincere and faithful friend remains with us at the time of our trouble. All others leave us. It is very painful when our friends turn traitors.
It is very difficult to find a true friend today.
Good friends exercise good influence. They always help their friends, in distress and inspire them to walk on the right path.
Amaze your true friend with a unique DIY gift on Best Friends Day. Prepare a pretty Friends’ Keepsake Box, and place in it
365+1 MESSAGES AND GREAT BEST FRIENDS QUOTES.
Your pal is supposed to read only 1 message a day.

Friendship is a relationship and concern between individuals and provides positive emotional support. Friends care for one another and look out for each other.
In order for a deep understanding to occur between friends it requires opening up about personal things, listening carefully, and being loyal to one another.
Friends contribute to our satisfaction, give us a sense of belonging, competence, and self-worth.
Friendship involves:
Enjoyment – spending time doing things together and sharing life experiences.
Trust – believing that our friends act on our behalf.
Respect and understanding – believing that our friends have the right to their own opinions.
Mutual assistance – helping and supporting our friends and having them help us.
Confiding – sharing confidential matters with our friends.

Pretty Birdhouse Box
Posted on 23 May 2012 | Comments Off
The vocal ability of birds has inspired poets and musicians, from Chaucer to Wordsworth, from Handel to Respighi.
Birdsong can be a natural phenomenon of intense beauty. But our enjoyment is incidental to the main purpose, which is one bird communicating with others.
Birds became the world’s master musicians in order to convey to potential mates, rivals and predators all the important things they have to say, from “Clear off!” to “Come on!”
And their songs have been shaped by their environment, just as the rap musician of New York delivers a different “tune” to the yodeller in the Swiss mountains.
Make a pretty Birdhouse Box. It could be a nice surprise gift for wife, sister, mom, best friend for any type of gift-giving occasion like birthday, Christmas or Valentine’s Day.
You can purchase the PDF step-by-step photo tutorial to guide you along the way to make this beautiful birdhouse from here:

Fancy Butterfly Bag
Posted on 31 March 2012 | Comments Off
Overwhelmingly, cultural myth and lore honor the butterfly as a symbol of transformation because of its impressive process of metamorphosis.
From egg, to larvae (caterpillar), to pupa (the chrysalis or cocoon) and from the cocoon the butterfly emerges in her unfurling glory.
What a massive amount of transition this tiny creature undergoes. Consider for a moment the kind of energy this expends. I daresay if a human were to go through this kind of change we’d freak out!
Well, I suggest you make a Fancy Butterfly Bag instead. It’s not difficult at all, just follow Martha Stewart’s instructions here:
Such a perfect gift idea for your girlfriend, your mom, your grandma…

Decorated Ferrero Rocher Box
Posted on 28 March 2012 | Comments Off
In the 1940′s Pietro Ferrero had a dream. The gifted Italian confectioner wanted to bring fine chocolates to the world.
First, though, he needed to change the way his countrymen bought chocolates. In 1946, Pietro began to do just that.
At the time, confections, cake and pastries were reserved only for special occasions, and even then Italian consumers chose products from small manufacturers and local pastry shops.
Pietro’s vision went far beyond these confines. He wanted to create original premium candies and make them widely available at affordable prices.
He succeeded. In just a few years Ferrero Rocher became the favourite chocolate treat for millions of people. Today it’s the world leader in its category.
After you have finished those delicious spherical chocolate sweets, do not throw their containing box away. You could make a pretty gift box out of it, just like Norwegian Gro Nilsen did:
Place MESSAGES FOR 365+1 DAYS in it, and present it to your beloved family member: your brother, your sister, your daughter, your son…
Best homemade birthday gift idea, unique DIY Christmas present. It could be also one of the nicest sentimental anniversary gifts for men and women. Just make it pretty.
Elegant Flower Box
Posted on 27 March 2012 | Comments Off
Don’t we all love flowers?
Flowers and plants are therapeutic, that’s a fact.
It has been said that flowers are the sweetest things God ever made, but forgot to put a soul into. They not only look pretty but smell delicious, too.
We see flowers as being pretty for the same reason we love the stars, a sunset/sunrise, mountains, the tropical ocean, and all other forms of natural beauty. It’s coincidence. It’s still beautiful though.
Pamper your wife, girlfriend, mom, grandmother with an Elegant Flower Box.
See Lauren Meader’s project here to inspire you:
Fill your pretty box with
