What is your flower pressing method of choice? 🌼 1. books & baking sheets 2. DIY cardboard press 3. Flower press (ours is kindly g I f t e d by Berstuk @flowerpresstips ) I remember when I got my first flower press when I was little, I was so excited to hold that little box which would help preserve my little treasures! I used to stick them to my diaries and journals 🌿 I must confess, my default method now in my adulthood is using books! Baking sheets and a selection of my favourite books piled high is just so quick and easy, maybe because of how many I have to press! Now that I finally have a decent sized press I can't wait to get gathering some new pieces to press for our crafts this year 🌼 - I have my eye on our Forsythia bush outside 🤣 Let me know in the comments what you do, or if maybe you might do some this year? #flowerpressing #flowerpress #flowersofinstagram #flowerpressingtips #flowerpressproject #diyflowers #diyflowerpress #cardboardcrafts #diycardboardplay #bookpress #natureactivity #naturestreasures #diyflower #diydecorations #heuristicplay #diyactivities #diycrafts #natureartist #bastelnmitkindern #actividades #ministylemag

Paper Wreaths 🎄🌿 Last year I had the honour of hosting a live Christmas Craft workshop and this was one of our simple Christmas origami makes! My daughter got the hang of these quicker than I did 🤣 Tip - it's easier to work with thinner paper! To make ✂️ ⭐ You will need 8 pieces of paper measuring 4cm x 8 cm ⭐ Fold the ends up as shown and then fold in half ⭐ Piece each 'boot' together working your way round ⭐ You can then leave as they are or insert small pieces of dried flowers and leaves into the folds 🌿 ⭐ Add some twine to hang and you're all done! Use them as decorative baubles, as part of a garland or even use as gift tags 🥰 Let me know if you'd be interested in a Step by Step guide for this one!

Salt Flower Jar Decoration 💮 This is a stunning idea I saw on one of my fave home decoration accounts @b_liebt I originally wanted to use sand but unfortunately had none to hand so I used salt instead! Using double sided sticky back paper, I cut some petals for my salt to stick to! Finishing off with a fun wooden bead in the centre of the flower 😍 This is so simple and quick to do and such a fun way to dress up a few home jars! I'll probably pop some dried flowers in this one! Use any shape you like and try this out too! ❤️ #glassjar #saltjar #glassjardecor #saltart #jardecoration #homedecorationideas #homedecorations #homedecorationsinspiration #heuristicplay #diyactivities #recycleandplay #summercrafts #diycrafts #natureartist #glassartist #glassdecor #homedecorinspo #kidscrafts101 #letskeepkidsbusy #pedagogiealternative #bastelnmitkindern #actividades #ministylemag #simplehomedecor #simplehomedecoration #diygiftideas

Let's play 🌻 The making of, and a little playtime, with our summertime bubble wands and mix! 🌟The wands are made using 2 pipe cleaners. Tied together at one end, I used a glue stick to mould the petal shapes and tied them along the second pipe cleaner until the full flower was made. I used the last remaining section of the pipe cleaner to tie to a stick (you can use some glue to make this sturdier). 💦Our bubble mix info is on our last post! A fun summer craft and a simple, low resource activity ♥️ Let me know if you have made bubble wands as is love to share them today! #heuristicplay #bubblewands #bubbleplay #diytoys #diyactivities #recycleandplay #kidscrafts101 #letskeepkidsbusy #outdoorplay #pedagogiealternative #bastelnmitkindern #actividades #ministylemag #eyfsactivities #eyfsideas #summercrafts #diycrafts #montessoriathome #homeschoolpreschool #natureactivities #natureactivity
