diy 3D paper hearts
So this is very easy but still it looks great :)
Cut the strips of paper..
Take one and fold it in triangle as in picture 1, then fold it again and again and again..
..until you get this:
Make sure that you remain section that you didn't fold and cut his corners as shown, then push it into a part which is raised in the third picture. At the end you should have a triangle as shown in the fourth picture.
Take a triangle and press it with all three sides to be 'bloated' and you get the 3D effect.
Still does not look like a heart, right? Well, take scissors and cut out the sharp corners in a semicircle..and that's it :D
It's fun and cute, try it :)

diy weaving tutorial
Each fabric is formed by weaving, by hand or mechanically, on weaving loom.
Although it seems like a difficult process, it is not. The preparation for weaving is heavier and longer than weaving. Once you begin to weave the sky is the limit.
Today I will show you the principle of weaving on a frame. Tapestries are weaved is in this way.
I don't have the frame at home and I assume neither do you :D so we can make it ourself like this :
Take the cardboard and cut short cutouts at the same distances as in picture:
Take the material with which you'll work (wool, cotton,...) and put it in a cutout. Paste it on the back of carton.
Run the material through the cutouts until you get this:
Then take another piece of cardboard and cut it as shown in the first picture. Lift each other basic and put cardboard under them.
Take the material with which you will weave, this is called a weft. Lift every other basic and pass the weft underneath. When you do this again take every other basic but the contrary of the first. So the first time lift up the basics that are on the third painting marked in orange, the second time lifting brown, then lift orange and then brown again,and so on and so on ...
After several repetitions you should have this:
After a few lines you can put some more detail:
When you are finished side facing toward you is the wrong side..
So you need to cut the base..
And your mini tapestry is finished :D
