Paper Stars
We chat to Karen-Marie, give you a chance to win the book and learn how-to make a ribe paper star.
I am a Danish paperdesigner since my childhood I have been playing with paper and I still by 61 years love to create in paper: Quilling, tearing, cutting, folding and drawing. In 1986 I founded the company Karen-Marie Klip & Papir. At the heart of my Company's concept is a deep fascination with paper and the endless creative possibilities it offers. My team and I makes the designs, and sell the tools and materials for them from my shop and webshop in Denmark. The shop, which is designed to look like a small village, also includes a tiny paper museum and a café. www.karenmarieklip.dk
Recreate the style of an Icelandic living room in #DIYTheRoom with Justine from The Thrifty Girl's Guide.
I'm now obsessed with Icelandic style after a trip to Reykjavik last month. Minimalism, texture and natural wood were common decor elements everywhere from shops to homes, and this living room also reflects the warm hospitality and friendly nature of the people!
Celebrate Easter in #DIYTheParty with Daniela from CurlyMade.
Easter in my family usually translates into gathering the family for a great meal, but for the kids, it's even more than that, it's bunny themed everything, chocolate egg treats and having fun playing around. I don't usually make table decorations for this season, but I've gathered some craft ideas that seem perfect for a family gathering like this, these would for sure wow the adults and entertain the youngest crowd.
We're mixing up cocktails for Easter with Demijohn's Chocolate Orange Cream Liqueur for #CocktailHour and making a Chocolate Orange Russian, Easter Egg Martini and Chocolate Orange Cheesecake.
Come behind the scenes at Bimble + Pimble for a #CraftRoomTour and see Amanda's sewing room in Canberra, Australia.
After years of sewing on the dining table I love the fact I have a dedicated space! It has lots of natural light, looks out over our back patio and is a seriously chilled place to hang. It's all kinds of awesome!
