DIY Twine Coasters (Decorate your home series)

As promised... This is an inexpensive way to add a little bit of character to your home for as little as 2 bucks!

For this project you will need:

(twine, cork coaster, hot glue gun)

I brought some twine from walmart (also available at the dollar tree for 1 dollar) and some cork coasters from Ikea for 99 cent


Step 1: Start your gluing around the coaster edge and continue around until you reach the next row. (I glued the edge down towards the center so that I could cover it up with the twine as I went around the coaster.


SN: as you can tell I chose to use the non decorative side so that way the coaster can be exchanged between the designs so its kind of like a two for one deal! (smart right?? I know... HA!)

Step 2: Continue gluing the twine around the coaster until you reach its center.

Repeat step one and two for the other three coasters. Then whala! you have your very own twine coaster set! 

Easy as pie right??? Hope you enjoyed this post and try it for yourself! These not only decorate your home but make great housewarming presents as well!

Braided Flower Headband

So I was cleaning up the house today going through some stuff I haven't seen since we moved in this apartment... (smh) and I found this twine...

 I have no idea where it came from but my guess is that you can find it at walmart... (they have everything... literally)


I cut two sets of 3 long strands of twine and braided them together each set separately.. then tied them together to make a double braided headband... 

I also made a matching pair of earrings to match the flower (also out of twine) that was on the headband.

Here is a close up of the headband.

next I think I am going to make a belt and a necklace :)
