DIY Easter Basket

Hey guys! For those of you who are new to my blog, welcome and enjoy! My name is Vesna and I`m a full time blogger, blogging about everything home and lifestyle related. 
I hope you're ready for the new ideas, because we are continuing with spring crafts and you don't want to miss this DIY Easter rope woven basket that is actually super easy to make! These Easter baskets would be such a fun project for the family and kids to do together! They can decorate their own basket and then take it out for the Easter egg hunt!
Easter, is one of my favorite holidays and I always try some new diy project to make it even more special! 
You can make these adorable Easter baskets as big, or as small and use it for almost anything after Easter! They are adorable and up-to-date all year around! 

Zdravo svima! Za one koji su prvi put na blogu, dobro došli, nadam se da ćete uživati. Moje ime je Vesna, ja sam bloger i pišem o svemu što je vezano za dom i stil. Nadam se da ste spremni za nove ideje, jer nastavljamo sa prolećnim projektima, a vi ne želite da propustite ovu Uskršnju pletenu korpu od kanapa koja se pravi vrlo jednostavno! Ovo može da bude i vrlo zabavan projekat za celu porodicu, a deca mogu da ih dekorišu i pune šarenim jajima. Uskras je jedan od mojih omiljenih praznika, uživam u farbanju jaja i uradi sam projektima koji će praznik učiniti još lepšim. Zato sam želela da sa vama podelim ovu jednostavnu i efektnu ideju.
Veličinu korpe odredite sami, napravite veliku ili malu i koristite je, ne samo tokom Uskršnjih praznika, već i kasnije za odlaganje bilo čega! 

You will need:

- bowl or other container any sizes you need,

- jute rope,

- plastic wrap,

- scissors,

- school or any type of white glue,

- glue gun and glue sticks.

Materijal:

- činija ili druga posuda u veličini koja vama odgovara,

- kanap,

- providna samolepljiva folija,
- makaze,

- školski ili dr. beli lepak,

- pištolj za vrući lepak i štapići lepka

Tutorial:

First wrap your bowl in a plastic wrap and turn it up side down. Add a small dot of white glue in the middle of the bowl and start wrapping the jute in a circle motion. Be sure your rope is tight, so pull it gently whenever you create a new circle. Often press the finished part with your hand to flatten it down. Add another circle of glue and keep on going the same way until you reach the end (or top) of your bowl. Cut the excess rope and glue it. Let it dry over night (or 24 hours). Remove your bowl and plastic wrap carefully from your basket (I must warn you, that part is quite difficult). 

For the handles cut 3 pieces of rope in a desired length and make a braid. Repeat for the another handle. Attach handles to your basket with a hot glue gun and that`s it! You can also paint your basket to make it more colorful or leave as is, it will be equally beautiful either way. 

Tutorijal: 

Prvo obmotajte svoju činiju plastičnom folijom i okrenite je naopako. Stavite malo lepka na sredinu i počnite da obmotavate kanap u krug. Da bi korpa bila stabilna zatežite kanap pažljivo svaki put kada napravite novi krug. Takođe pritiskajte deo koji ste završili dlanom da biste ga izravnali. Dodajte novi krug lepka oko završenog dela i nastavite isti postupak obmotavanja sve dok ne stignete do kraja (ili bolje rečeno vrha) vaše činije. Odsecite višak kanapa i dobro zalepite. Ostavite da se suši preko noći ili još bolje 24 časa. Potom uklonite činiju i foliju iz vaše korpe pažljivo (moram da kažem da je ovo meni bio najteži deo postupka).

Za drške korpe isecite 3 parčeta kanapa u željenoj dužini i ispletite pletenicu. Ponovite isti postupak za drugu dršku. Pričvrstite drške vrućim lepkom i to je to, korpa je gotova! Korpu možete obojiti, ako želite ili je ostaviti u prirodnoj boji, biće jednako lepa šta god odlučili. 

Fill your basket with colored eggs and candy, add a bow, feathers or flowers and enjoy! This is also such a fun way to gift a basket! Who will you make a Easter Basket for?

Napunite svoju korpicu šarenim jajima, slatkišima i ukrasite mašnom, perjem ili cvećem i uživajte! Ovo je takođe i super ideja da nekome napravite poklon za Uskrs! Kome biste vi poklonili ovakvu Uskršnju korpicu?

Christmas Cotton Pom Pom Garland

Hello my beautiful friends! For those of you who are new to my blog, welcome! Today I wanted to share really interesting project! It was so easy and inexpensive to make, I thought I would share it with you.

All you will need is:

- Two 50 count bags of cotton balls

- A sewing needle

- Heavy duty thread - I used embroidery thread

- About half of hour of time

- A little patience 😉

Zdravo dragi moji prijatelji! Ako ste prvi put na mom blogu, dobro došli! Danas sam želela da sa vama podelim jedan vrlo zanimljiv projekat. Toliko je jednostavan, a troškovi su zaista zanemarljivi, da sam morala da ga podelim sa vama.

Sve što vam je potrebno je:

- Dve kesice od 50 kom. kuglica od vate

- Igla za šivenje

- Jači konac ili konac za vez

- Oko pola sata vremena

- I malo strpljenja 😉

Start by rolling every ball to make it as round as possible. Just rub them in the palms of your hands in a circular motion until they become round. (They look a little bit like marshmallow when you open the bag, so I recommend this step.)

Prvo oblikujte kuglice tako da dobiju okrugli oblik. Jednostavno ih valjajte između dlanova praveći kružne pokrete dok ne dobiju pravilan oblik. (Kuglice su pomalo kockaste kada ih izvadite iz vrećice, pa zato preporučujem da prvo to uradite da bi izgledale više okrugle.)

After that all you need to do is to thread the cotton balls onto your thread. I decided to use just one string and make one long garland, but you can cut your thread in smaller pieces and make a few garlands.

Posle toga vam ostaje samo da provlačite iglu i konac kroz kuglice i nižete svoju girlandu. Ja sam odlučila da napravim jednu dugu, a vi možete napraviti i nekoliko kraćih ako vam to više odgovara.

Special tip: It is easier to stick the needle trough the middle of the cotton ball rather then through the sides. Other way your cotton balls will start to fall apart.(Look on the photo below)

Važan savet: Kada nižete kuglice uvek nižite kroz sredinu,  a ne kroz deo sa strane. Ukoliko provlačite iglu kroz deo sa strane (onaj na kome se vidi namotaj) kuglice će početi da vam se rasturaju. 

(Ako niste razumeli, pogledajte sliku ispod)

I recommend  to tie a knot around the first and last one, just to secure them. You can space your pom-poms an inch apart, or you could push the cotton balls together (like I do) for a more solid looking garland. 

Takođe preporučujem da oko prve i poslednje vežete čvor radi sigurnosti. Možete ih razdvajati (par cm između svake) ili ih ređati gusto (kao što sam ja uradila) da biste dobili gustu girlandu.

What do you think of using everyday items in home decor?If you love it like me, I`d love to hear about your projects! 

Šta mislite o upotrebi svakodnevnih predmeta u svrhu kućnog dekora. Ako i vi volite da ih korisitite, volela bih da čujem više o vašim projektima!

Avon Miriam Necklace Review

Hello lovely people! For those of you who are new to my blog, welcome. Today`s post is all about jewelry, one necklace in particularly. This is Miriam necklace from Avon and I ordered it a week ago and got it yesterday. It comes in two boxes, one is plain white with Avon logo on it and second one is decorative. Before I start talking about it, I must tell you why I order it. There is one beautiful Pandora necklace I want for months. But, unfortunately here you can order it only in silver, and I wanted the gold one. So, I start looking for something similar, and when I find this, I decided to give it a try. 

Zdravo dragi moji! Za one koji su prvi put na mom blogu, dobro došli. Današnji post je u potpunosti posvećen nakitu, odnosno jednoj ogrlici. Radi se o jednoj od Avonovih ogrlica koju sam naručila pre oko nedelju dana i koju sam juče dobila. Dolazi zapakovana u dve kutije, jedna je bela sa Avonovim logom, a druga je ukrasna. Pre nego što počnem da pričam o samoj orglici, želim da vam kažem zašto sam je naručila. Postoji jedna Pandorina predivna ogrlica koju priželjkujem mesecima. Ali, na žalost kod nas je dostupna samo srebrna, a ja želim zlatnu. I tako sam počela da tražim neku sličnu i naišla na ovu. Na slici je delovala prilično lepo, pa sam odlučila da joj dam šansu.

As you can see it`s gold chain with three pendants. Length is 42 - 51 cm and pendants are 1,2 cm in diameter. First one is gold circle decorated with clear zircons and this one is my favorite (because it`s similar to the one I wanted). One of other two is textured, and third is just smooth gold circle. I must say I`m allergic to jewelry which is not made of gold or silver, but I tried to wear it for a few hours and it doesn`t not caused me any allergic reaction, so it`s all good. 

Kao što vidite na slikama ogrlica je zlatna i dolazi sa tri priveska. Dužina ogrlice je 42-51 cm a obim privezaka je 1,2 cm.  Prvi je zlatni krug sa cirkonima i taj mi je najdraži (jer liči na Pandorin koji sam želela). Ostala dva su takođe okrugla, prvi ima teksturu, a drugi je jednostavan, gladak zlatni krug. Moram da dodam da sam alergična na bižuteriju, ali ovu sam nosila nekoliko sati i nije izazavala kod mene nikakvu alergijsku reakciju, tako da je mogu koristiti.

Here`s the photo of me wearing it, and you can see it`s not long, but it`s not short neither. You can adjust the length a little, and make it shorter if you like. 

Overall I like it, it was not expensive, but I must say that the pendants are much smaller then I expected and that`s the only thing I don`t like about it, but, oh well I can still wear it, right? 

Evo i fotografije na kojoj je nosim, da biste videle dužinu i opšti utisak. Ogrlica se može malo i skratiti jer ima deo koji je predviđen za podešavanje dužine. 

Sve u svemu, ogrlica mi se dopala, cena je pristupačna, ali mi se nije dopalo to što su privesci mnogo manji nego što sam mislila, ali, oh dobro, ipak mogu da je nosim, zar ne?
