DIY - Origami Heart Corner Bookmarks!

I know how much my followers love to read, and it's not easy finding a pretty, original bookmark!  I have been loving making these cute bookmarks, they're so easy, too!  I did try to take pictures as steps to show you how to make them, but I figured I would just show you the video I learnt from, as she teaches you so well!  I like to make mine from patterned paper, so they look extra pretty:D

Here's how mine turned out!

Okay, so you will need:

Paper of your choice

A pencil

A ruler

A pair of scissors

Some glue

And some different paper for your heart (if you wish!)

And here is how you do it!

After this, you can trace around the heart on a contrasting piece of paper, cut it out, and glue it ton top!

Again, this is the finishing result!

OKay, well I hope you guys enjoyed this, this was one of the most requested topics to feature in the blog, so I hope I've made you happy!  There will definitely be more posts like this to come!

A Jar of Free Chores?! | DIY

If only there was one.  Well, now there is!  For my mum...

Okay, basically, it was her birthday, and I couldn't think of anything to get her.  I'd already spent my money on holiday *guilty face*, so I need something that would save her money and wouldn't cost me a penny...

So I thought of this.  A jar of free chores.  Each chore is worth a certain amount of tokens.  Depending on what chores she wants done, the amount of pocket money I normally get for each chore will be deducted.  The more money I normally get for a chore, the more tokens it costs.

Of course, there is a limited amount of tokens mwahahaha... (in mum's case, 100).

So basically, this is a win-win; she gets free chores, it doesn't cost me a penny and it makes me more disciplined:)

You can do this yourself if you want:)  Here are the tokens and label I made for the jar:

Perhaps you would want to make your own tokens.  I would recommend square ones, as I had to cut out 100 small circles -_-

Decorate and stuff the bottom of the jar (so it looks like there's more in it), and put your tokens in!  It's bound to get you some bonus brownie points =)
