Dragobete/ valentines day


Dragobete is the traditional valentines day for romanians :)
I chose to make these adorable traditional couples along with few lines from traditional love songs. It turned out really cute ^_^

I thought I should remind everyone a bit of our tradition and make something original for this 'valentines day' not the usual 'I love you'  plush heart ;)

nu stiu daca e adevarat dar de dragobete/ 'valentines day' mi se pare ca lumea nu prea stie ce sa cumpere...iubirea "in engleza" ...ca in romaneste nu prea gasesti ..asa ca m-am gandit asa...in versurile din muzica populara veche intotdeauna iubirea e evocata intr-o maniera joviala si suna a basm cu cosanzeana si fat frumos..parerea mea :)) asa ca  asta a iesit...

Hope you like!

Happy memories wreath DIY tutorial

I always wanted to gather some photos that are dear to me in one place!
My good friend Rux from Copilarim sent  an e-mail asking me  if I can make a DIY tutorial using wood

This is a really nice way to show off you family and friends pictures, beautiful happy memories over the years. You can hang it somewhere in your living room for everyone to admire and so you can start remembering the good times all over again  :)

So here are some things you need to start doing this wreath:

▲ a long grapevine twig 
▲ parts from a branch cut to different sizes
▲rope
▲scissors
▲lots of mini photos with beautiful memories 
▲glue or glue gun( I used Martha Stewart glue )
▲decorations 
▲pins
▲printed text template that can be downloaded below 

you can directly DOWNLOAD the text by clicking HERE


  .b use a single string of rope and end it at the same point where you started  








start preparing your decorations! 


◭I wrapped some string around the smaller wood sticks and tied them to the circle as a base for the decorations

◭I've cut and distressed the paper bands with the text part ( I used Tim Holtz distress Ink pad which you can find here at Carte de Coeur to make them look vintage 

◭ floral stamen from Hobby Lobby you can find it HERE

Tim Holtz sizzix Bird Branch and Regal Crest 

◭wooden house from Prima 

◭ white acrylic paint

◭ lovely polymer flower pins made by Lollyrot Scrapbooking 





❤ best part !
 start decorating the wreath but remember to leave space for the mini photos or whatever your heart desires 

❤ pin the mini photos with colored pins so it looks pretty



❤ That's it! you can decorate it with whatever you want !
and if you are making a Happy memories wreath with photos
don't forget to leave space for future happy moment in your life!






Hope you enjoyed my DIY tutorial and don't forget to leave a comment and visit my FB page 
XOXO Lia
