Wall Hanging from Newspaper

After a long break I'm coming up with a news paper craft. It is an easy one but bit time consuming.

 
These are paper rolls glued together. we can join it to form any shape and use it as a wall hanging. After making rolls apply bright colors then glue to form circles,diamonds...
 
 
I used it as a door hanging. You can have variety of crafts using these paper rolls. Check it out and try when you are ready to do something creative.

Woven Paper Heart Basket

This is a woven paper basket. In some countries it is used to decorate Christmas trees. It is a gift bag to present candies for kids. Of course the woven basket is an easy craft to make with minimum materials.

 
It looks more beautiful if we do it with two contrasting colors. I used it to store my tiny notes, spoons and forks.
 
Next time if you want to gift any small things, try this handmade basket and see your loved ones cute smile.
 
Thank you buddies for me visiting my space. Catch you later with some other interesting thing...

This heart wreath made using the triangular units. A total of 48 units have been used for this purpose. 24 white and 24 blue units.

 
Triangular units are inserted one after the other in a linear fashion alternating between the two colors chosen. First I made two curves of 24 units each and finally joined these two curves together to form a heart.
