DIY Engraving Wooden Hearts With Initials. My husband just bought me a new toy for my crafting hobby, a mini engraving pen. I decided to use the mini engraving on a simple project, which is engraving initial on wooden heart. I need it to try my new toy 🙂

Since it’s near Valentine’s day, I made a wooden heart and engraved initials of my loved ones. I did the engraving on both sides of the wooden heart to see the results of the two different style.

First style was I painted the wooden heart in white, engraved the initial and then have it blue painted the initial.
The second style is I painted the wooden heart on the other side in blue, then engraved the initial and left it that way.

Things that I used for this DIY Engraving Wooden Hearts With Initials are:

Mini engraving pen
Balsa wood
White and blue paint
Paint brush

I think the mini engraving pen is very easy and handy to use for any crafting project. It also can be used not only to wooden material, but also glass and ceramic. You just need a steady hand to engraved something, especially a small engraving like I did with the initials on the wooden hearts.

I just can not wait to show you the results. The engraved wooden heart with initial would be a great love embellish and could be used as a decoration to any crafting project. Well, you may want to try yourself, as I find it fun. Have fun trying then!

DIY Valentine’s Gift Hourglass

Looking for a special valentine’s gift idea? Let’s try my DIY Valentine’s Gift Hourglass. It would be a special gift with your personal touch. An hourglass that he/she can put on working desk which reminds him/her loved one. It’s a cute gift but easy to make.

Let’s see what do you need to make DIY Valentine’s Gift Hourglass :

Small used glass bottles (you need two of the same size and shape bottles)
Balsa wood (thick and thin)
Pink sand
White paint
Silver ribbon
Glue

The steps to make DIY Valentine’s Gift Hourglass are very simple, which are:

Clean the two used glass bottles thoroughly.
Cut the thick balsa wood into 2 squares (for the bottle’s bottom) and 1 rectangle thin balsa wood with the width of the square balsa and the length of the two bottles.
Cut thin balsa wood in the shape and size of the bottle’s mouth, a circle. And then drill a hole in the middle.
Paint the two squares and one rectangle balsa with white paint. Let it dry.
Glue 1 square balsa into the bottom of one bottle. Let it dry.
Fill the glued bottle with the pink sand. Secure it with circle balsa and glue it to the bottle’s mouth.
Glue the other bottle to the filled bottle, mouth to mouth.
Glue the square balsa to the glued bottle’s bottom.
Decor it with silver ribbon. I tried to keep it simple so the pink sand would be the main focus.
Glue the rectangle balsa to the two sides of bottom balsa; it’s used as the hourglass’ background. Finished!

I used whatever bottles I had at home, but it would look nicer if you have shorter and rounder bottles, it would make a very cute hourglass. Easy to make? Yes it is! This DIY Valentine’s Gift Hourglass would be a great choice for a handmade valentine’s gift. And it would be perfect for anyone, just decor the hourglass accordingly to the type of person you’re going to give. Good luck!

Upcycling Table Calendar Into A Personalized 2019 Planner

All this time I have been thinking of what to do with old table calendar, as it is such a waste to just throw it away. It’s thick, made from fine papers, wouldn’t be great to be used as something new? Until I have this idea of making a personalized planner to organize 2019. It would be a table planner actually, not in a form of a book.

It is a very simple looking planner in order to give you more freedom to personalized it with your style and have it interesting / eye-catching in your own way. As simple as it look, the making was also simple. I followed the old 2018 table calendar color that I had and try to match it. It’s blue and I happened to have blue papers, so it became a blue planner.

Okay, let’s list down things to prepare for upcycling old table calendar into a nice handy personalized planner to organize your 2019 :

Old table calendar
Blue papers
Popsicle sticks
Flower ornaments
Glue
Drawing pen

The steps to upcycling table calendar into a personalized planner for 2019 are simple and easy :

Cut the blue papers into a size that enough to cover all picture of the calendar, but not entire page, leave a bit for a frame.
Glue each cut paper to each page of the old table calendar. Let it dry.
Decorate as you wished, I decorated the planner in very simple look. That way, I can personalized it while filling my 2019 planner.
I used popsicle sticks to write month and the yearly planner; January – December, My 2019 Planner, My 2020 Sneak Peek. And I finished it with flowers ornaments, each on both sides.
I drew columns and hand wrote the week, the notes, the months. If you wanted to be more instant, just print out the blue papers before you paste it to the old calendar. It’s faster and easier. But, hey, where’s the fun? 😀
Your Personalized 2019 Planner is finished!

What a cheap fun planner to organize your 2019. That’s what you get from upcycling table calendar and use a bit of creativity to make it attractive. The old table calendar was not attractive calendar and the color blue is quite difficult to work with, that is why I stayed in shades of blue. But you might get lucky and have a more attractive old table calendar with more neutral color to be upcycled into a better 2019 planner that you can personalized. Well, happy hunting old table calendar and planning for exciting 2019!

No need planner to be creative!

See you next week!
