Miniature desk made of matchboxes

Matchbox Desk

Here's an easy to make tiny matchbox desk. The drawers can be pulled out just like the real thing.

You will need:

  • glue
  • 6 matchboxes for drawers
  • matches for tiny pencils (match heads can be used also for knobs)
  • a piece of thick cardboard: glue it underneath the cabinet of drawers on the right side of the picture, this will make both sides of the desk of the same height
  • coloured paper, wallpaper, scissors, paint etc. for decorating

Floral greeting card with spiral flowers

-

I tried to make a greeting card with three-dimensional flowers. The techniques is described in detail in " Paper Crafts Workshop: A Beginner's Guide to Techniques & Projects ". In short: Draw a swirl on coloured paper. Cut the paper following the swirl design with decorative scissors (waves of different types). Start cutting from the outside to the centre. Roll the swirl from the outside towards the centre around a thin round stick or using a quilling tool. Remove the stick and let the rolled paper free. It opens a little into a flower. Pull the centre (a small circle) of the swirl and glue it underneath. Cut out leaves, place them on a soft pad and gently press in veins. UPDATE: Don't miss the video tutorial on how to make such roses.
