pirate themed birthday.

a year has passed

my nephew is turning 5

last year

we chose his favourite super hero,

batman, as the theme

this year
i suggested pirate theme
and he agreed

here is my to do list

- sew the bag -

i already have the fabric

what i did was cut it, make the pattern, sew it

and found the perfect ribbon to match the fabric

which i also already have

- draw skull on the bag -

since we only need 20 bags

i decided to draw it manually

- design and print -

there were still lots of things i had to do

but there wasn't lots of time left

in other words, i need help

bunch of thanks to my dearest sister

who helped me design this
easy DIY telescope tutorial

- DIY telescope -

at first
i thought providing

cardboard, black carton and gold paper

for this DIY is enough

later on

i thought adding white skull
on the black carton

will make it better

so i bought white sticker

and cut skull shape out of it

one by one

and because this is a simple DIY

for 5 year old kids

i thought it will be nicer for me

to put double tape behind every paper

so the kids shouldn't get messy with glue

at the end of the day
the moral of the story is

i should simply just go to digital printing

print black sticker with skull on it

and find (or also print) the gold sticker

it would be a looot easier and faster and nicer

oh well, perhaps next time

- pirate snacks -

saw this pirate banana on pinterest

and i really love the idea

kids will love it 'cause it's super cute

and moms will also love it 'cause it's healthy

i just had to put it in the list

- pearl bracelet for girls and eye patch for boys -

i already have the pearl, elastic string,

the fabric and black ribbon

if you wonder, the answer is yes

i do have many things related to craft

these were basically a simple DIY

last but not least

- the gold coins -
