I wanted to share with you two DIYs I did in the last few weeks all in one post because in a different form they either already have their own tutorials on this blog or weren’t my idea. All of them are the kind of DIY project I like best: quick to make but with a pretty end result.
What DIY projects have you guys finished recently? I am always looking for more ideas, do you have any suggestions for what I should do next?
Silver Slave Bracelet
I am so into slave bracelets at the moment. I used to only wear jewellery in gold, but since I have discovered pastel colours on my nails, I have switched to silver jewellery. That means I had to make another everyday slave bracelet! This one is even easier to make than the one in my original tutorial, it literally takes 2 minutes. I really like this one, it’s kind of got this minimal feel to it.
Floating Vase
I got the idea for this from Cupcakes and Cashmere, and I am definitely planning on making more and playing around with colour. I can imagine this to look cool with maybe a bright orange canvas and pink flowers or a black canvas and a white orchid. Floating vases are a good option for those with cats that like to chew off flowers :)
How do you make the simple version of the slave bracelet?
You should sell the slave-bracelets on etsy!
love your diy craft ideas..keep them coming :)
Love the DIY ideas. And the floating vase is so quirky I’m gonna have a go (cats are ALWAYS chewing off my flowers :-/ )
I might have to do the slave bracelet with seed beads instead of chain… that could be gorgeous. Thanks for the style idea!
Love the ideas! Mybe I’ll try the slave bracelet for myself… :)
The floating vase is pretty cool! I find Cupcakes & Cashmere inspirational too :-)
LOVE the floating vase idea! amazing!
Oooo, floating vase – quite nice! I love artsy stuff. Must share…
I loved all the ideas! I think I’ll do one slave bracelet for me and one floating vase for my mom, I have two cats and one of them is obsessed with chewing flowers! xD The plates are awesome too, but I think the stars will start peeling after being washed…
The ring/bracelet idea is really cool and edgy! I just might try it out. The mason jar vase idea is nice too. I think it looks so pretty against your brick wall!
I really like the floating vase and also other “floating” things like a candle holder or just a hook in a frame for some jewelry maybe. Could even be a little shelve (and with little I mean tiny) that holds a ring or some earrings or something like that.
I adore stars, love this idea!
I think the slave bracelet is really cute, I might try altering it for a few different looks. This is a really great post btw!

I love the slave bracelet: simple, minimalistic and very pretty (and I agree, silver goes beter with pastels).
Glad to see I’m not the only one with a cat loving to chew off flowers!
Those floating vases are so awesome!
They’re all so lovely- great post :)
Cool bracelet. I remember one very elaborate one my mom had when I was a kid and have loved them ever since.
