D.I.Y.s
(Do It Yourself)
from Wild Olive


1) Felt Mystery Braid Bracelet

Ever heard of the Felt Mystery Braid bracelet? I wouldn't blame you if you haven't, because today's the first time I've heard of it.


It's gorgeous isn't it? Perfect to go with any casual dressing style!

I personally really like doing D.I.Y. stuffs. The first thing I've ever D.I.Y.-ed should be my 2011 daily organiser. As fail as it turned out to be, I had a sense of satisfaction after doing it.

So last night at about 12am (wtf) I was browsing through the net online for something for me to D.I.Y. and I found this thingy. I was so excited that I bookmarked the page and did it this morning!





I wouldn't call it a successful attempt because I liked the braids I did. But, of course I didn't cut it as pretty as Mollie did.

If you're wondering who's Mollie, it's the name of the person whose blog I found. She's the blog owner of Wild Olive and I found this tutorial here. I've yet to sew a button up to secure it on my wrist. This is the only problem I'm facing. I don't know how to handle a needle. :( I could ask my mum to do it for me but.... I'm lazy to even talk to her about this whole thing.

Yup, that's how lazy I am. :/

I hope you guys try this out anyway! Even if you fail, do it again! Because this is my second attempt doing it! I failed the first time, hehe!

2) Paper Chains



I did this too! This is really simple. Because, really, all you hafta do is to follow the steps here. Which I summarise it as: print the pdf file out and link them together.

And this was what I got:





It's really simple, isn't it?! And yep, this is what I call a successful attempt. Hehe!

Satisfied with what I did. Gonna print some cupcake flags and probably print some printables from Wild Olive! She's so awesome you don't even know! Love her!
