Materials Required:
  • Cardboard box - 1
  • Colour sheets of paper
  • Cut out of any design
  • Glue
  • Scissors

How to make it:

Choose a cardboard box that can hold at least few of them. The height of the front of the box should be few cm's lesser than the back (just like a post box). Cover the box with coloured sheet of paper of your choice and glue it. Cut out designs from a magazine that can go as a display in the front of the box or even some photos or pictures of nature, animals or flowers will do. Glue it in the front and decorate as you wish. I used a photo of a flower vase and decorated the sides with some glitters. This is a wonderful craft idea for Kids.

These umbrellas are used for decorating milkshakes and desserts. I have a hobby of collecting those cute little umbrellas whenever i drink or eat some desserts at the restaurants. But, those here are handmade ones to decorate the juices and shakes i make for my Cooking Blog.

Materials Required:

  • Colourful sheet of paper - 1
  • Markers
  • Toothpicks
  • Glue
  • Scissors


How to make it:

Mark the round shape on a designed sheet of paper (use a magazine paper for shiny surface). Cut out the round shape and fold into two. Open and again fold on the other side and repeat until you get eight lines. Prick a toothpick at the center and apply little glue to make the toothpick stick with the paper. Open to get an umbrella.
