Super Massive Etsy Sale!
Use the codeword "WOLVES" to get 20% off your purchase at my etsy store!
I've put literally everything from my art cupboard up for sale on my etsy because I'm moving interstate next year and I need to a) Reduce the amount of stuff I own and b) raise money because I'm super poor.
The sale goes until mid january, and after it ends I will be taking everything that's left over down from my etsy forever so if there's something you've been wanting now's the time to get it!
Currently available in my store are: Original artworks, prints, polymer clay brooches and necklaces, greeting cards, cat dolls, hand printed t-shirts, zines and super cheap value packs where you can get a combination of those things for a fraction of the price!
If you can't afford/don't want to buy my art and handmade stuff I'd really appreciate it if you could spread the word :)

Super Easy Christmas Wreath DIY
I love Christmas, but I don't own many christmas decorations, so in an effort to bring some Christmas cheer to my house I made this wreath collage on my wall, and it turned out so nice and was so easy to make that I thought I'd share it with everyone in the form of a DIY! It didn't take long or cost much to make but it's so cheerful and fun!
You Will Need:
- Several old magazines (I used National Geographic, you can pick them up at op shops/second hand book shops for like, 50c each)
- Scissors
- One sheet of white paper
- Markers
- Blue Tac (or other adhesive)
1. Flick through your magazine and tear out any pages that are green, red, brown or any other nature-y festive colours (I think I used about 5 pages)
2. Once you have your stash of pages, cut them into leaf and twig shapes in varying sizes (you can draw them on first if you don't feel confident but I just did mine free hand)
3. On a table or flat surface arrange your leaves and twigs in a ring, about three rows thick, you can make it thicker if you like but any thinner and it starts to look a bit scrawny. I made my wreath about 20cm in diameter but it could really be any size you like.
4. Once you are happy with your arrangement, put a small amount of blu tac on the back of each leaf and stick them to the wall.
5. When your wreath is all attached to the wall, it's time to make your ribbon/banner. Simply cut a ribbon shape from your white sheet of paper and using the marker, write your holiday message onto the banner. Put a little blue tac on the back of the banner at each end and stick it across the middle of the wreath on the wall, and you're all ready to spread that holiday cheer!
