1. Floral Ring
Things you need:
- Nail polish
- Ring
- Wire
- Glitter tube
- Marker
- Fevi bond
- Scissors
Steps to follow:
Step 1: Wrap a jewelry wire around the marker 5 times in order to create 5 petals.
Step 2: Remove the wire from the marker, pull the ends through it and twist it in place.
Step 3: Spread out the petals and twist them at the base to create a flower.
Step 4: Swipe the nail polish brush from left to right so that it covers the gap. Be patient here – keep a steady and slow hand. You can do it!
Step 5: Apply a dot of glitter at the center of the flower, too cover the gaps. Finally, apply some strong hold glue on the ring and stick the flower in place.
2. Accessories Holder
Things you need:
- Felt fabric
- Box
- Ruler
- Marker
- Scissor
- Fabric glue
- Paper
Steps To Follow:
Step 1: Cut out a piece of felt fabric the same dimension as the width of the box that you are using to make this ring/earring holder.
Step 2: Roll the fabric till the desired length and glue the edges.
Step 3: Take a piece of paper and cut it to fit inside the box.
Step 4: Place all the felt rolls in the box, but make sure that there aren’t too many gaps between each one since the jewelry would fall right through it.
3. Beaded Bracelet
Things you need:
- Ribbon
- Beads
- Needle and thread
Steps To Follow:
Step 1: Tie a knot 5 inches away from the end of the ribbon.
Step 2: Pull the needle from the bottom of the ribbon and put a bead through it. Secure it by pushing the need out from the back side of the ribbon.
Step 3: Leave a gap on 1 inch and repeat the same step. Pull onto each gap as you move onto the next one.
Step 4: Tie a knot once you’re done and then cut off the extra thread
Voila, you are all set with three super easy and cute DIY gifts for your mom!
