Clover & Flower Wire Rings

A new video went up today! We're creating this 4 leaf clover ring and this flower ring.

These rings are made the same way - the flower ring just has an extra loop of wire, 

which makes it a little more difficult to make. 

Materials:

• 20 gauge wire
• round nose pliers
• wire cutters
• Optional: needle nose pliers

Mini Flower Vase Card

New video! This one shows how to create a flower bouquet/vase inspired card.
This would work as a birthday card, a mother's day card, and more.

 

The front of the vase opens to reveal a written message!

Tutorial: Paper Birdhouse for Mother's Day

A new video just went up! It shows how to create a cute little paper birdhouse, 

which you can fill with candy and give to your mom for Mother's Day! 

       You could also make these for other occasions, of course - I think they'd be great for Easter, too.


                                                                  
                                                                 Here are the patterns:

To print it, hover over it and click the right icon at the top (that says "Pop-out" when you hover on it). Next, click on the printer icon at the top. Finally, make sure the paper size on the lower left is set to 8x10 and the "fit to page option" is checked.

If you are going to be putting candy in the birdhouse, make sure to use paper that is strong enough to hold it. Card stock works very well for this.

If you try this, I'd love to see it! Tag me on instagram @essyjae
