the first vintage esque diy is great toadd some character to a blank wall you'll need a glass frame or a couple ofthem i went with bronze and i got mine on sale from anthropologie over time buti will have some similar ones a link down below and my first design was usingletters from you guys and some very old letters and envelopes that i kept fromcanadian friends when i briefly lived in europe for in 2007 so i keep everythingi've moved around and the letters did naturally fade and have some wear andtear which is great but you can always manufacture this with some crumplingteabags and if you don't have letters do this with some friends you can eachwrite each other one and then another
cute touch is adding postage stickerswhich i found on etsy i plan the collage and i folded the letters to fit theshape so i'm not destroying anything that i might want to reopen later andi'm using double sided tape just sticking each one down you don't need aton of tape as the layers of glass will wedge these in place but it's nice tohave a little bit more security with the design here i go added in some stickersand a big thank you to everyone who's ever sent me a letter when i had a peelbox in canada i love them wanted to display them and will keep them forever first idea super quick and easy and forthe next frame i have this paris
postcards from papyrus and i'm lookingthrough to see which one has similar tones to the letters i picked out i usequite a bit of pink so i added this postcard that has some pink in the skyi wanted more see-through with this frame and i went with dried flowers thati ordered from etsy you could use paper flowers for michael's make your owndried flowers i'm picking these up very gently and creating a border around thecircular frame and this frame is a broken one so again if the glass can bewedged tight enough you don't really need adhesive but this one i definitelydid so i use tiny amounts of garlic glue dotted under thicker portions of thedried flowers and then i'm grillin
gluing the broken part of the frame sofar it's held up for me if you have a broken frame or one you've driftedthat's just you know not the most secure adding some gorilla glue and making sureto apply pressure for a minute it's really gonna make the diy last using thegorilla glue under the flowers does make it a bit cloudy in that area but ihonestly really liked the look and yeah i thought it added something kind ofdifferent to it the last one i wanted to do a polaroid inspired so i have thisphone app called instance and i imported old photos i had from 2007 in paris anditaly with my family to fit the traveleurope theme going on you can seehow easy this app is to have a faux
polaroid filter and beams of light andthen i just sent them to cvs to print and cut them out finally i hand wrote the timeframe ofeach picture and then to tie the three frames together i added pieces from theother two frames and there we have it let me know which of the frames is yourfavorite i think the paris postcard and floral frame is the prettiest but theother two have more sentimental value so i love all three together next up amemory box i totally wanted to make one of these because disney movies glorifythese oh my god especially in the movie geek charming which is one of myfavorites if you guys haven't seen that
movie it's great and i always wanted tomake a box but thankfully no one has passed away in my family so i'm makingmy own memories that could maybe be passed down or just a core in your roomto highlight your fav memories i got this wedding dress preserving boxthere's probably a better name for these but amazon is great to find them andalso michaels you can get crates for cheaper too and i'm starting with adouble sided tape again putting down some tissue paper as a bit of a borderand then i added my favorite dress that i wore in my favorite place i've evertraveled to croatia i do have a full log of that experience if you want to see itdubrovnik and i added three super cute
love letters for my first ever boyfriendso i'll always keep those they're the sweetest and i'm just adding some cordaround them i love getting photos printed but i'm a little too lazy tomake scrapbook or like a photo album so i'm using a notebook from chapters orbarnes and noble and i took the spiral journal out and i'm putting these photosso that they are protected i wrote a little letter to self not like a dearfuture me but just a line detailing why i put in each memoryand also cents can be so nostalgic i love the scent maple blondie from asmall canadian brand so just in case they don't make these years from nowi'll have a reminder and then adding
some photos and a face chart from thefirst sponsorship i ever did with covergirl and flare mag i took this green striped ribbon youlove the texture and vintage look to it and then some lace i didn't end up usingthe brown ribbon on-screen but that's another really pretty shade to make thiswith i never liked how this lampshade had such a crease so i'm with gluegunning the striped ribbon then overtop the lace make sure you wrapto the inside so it stays put on the bottom i hot-glued the ribbonaround the base and once it was on there i adjusted it so that it's sit nice
create a bowi bought this ribbon because of the movie a little princess one of myall-time favorites and their bows on their hair and looked super similar ialways like to make things that remind me of my other favorite things and gluethat medium-sized bow add a button or a stamp you can get these from papyrus andthen i'm creating mini bows i didn't even truly make a bow for these littleones i found it look neater to tie a knot and then loop and glue at the back and then i added a stamp on the last bowas well and i already have a lot going on in this corner so i didn't want to gotoo overboard but bring in a special
touch so here's a look at the corner ofmy room i hope you enjoyed this diy room orapartment tech or home decor you should call like and if you did make sure yougive this video a thumbs up and subscribe for moretypically beauty content from me but if you guys did like this video then ofcourse let me know in the comments and i can come up with some more ideas toshare also one more thing i wanted to let you guys know about so when i gotthis bed frame it did have silver little duh what if that was called bulletthings and i really liked gold accents and that's pretty much my whole place soi just got a pen from michael's and then
