Summer DIY for when boredom strikes...

This summer, for the majority of you, has probably consisted of Netflix, The Fridge, and the oh-so-comfy Bed or Couch. If you sleep on the couch don't be ashamed, sometimes it's WAY more comfortable than a bed ;)

But since I know we all struggle form a variety of different issues regarding ourselves and the nettle against boredom, I thought I would showcase a neat little project that I discovered and then re-created myself.

I call it........ Letters and Envelopes.

I know, it's pretty darn amazing, I came up with it myself guys.

Hehe :)

ANYWHO!

I did this project because I wanted to have a way to remind myself of things whenever I felt a certain way or encountered a certain situation. Going into college and living on my own for once might be hard but, I want to make sure that I don't lose myself in the process.

 

This is what they will look like once you're done! :)

Supplies:  

1. Glue Stick (Can use double sided tap as well)

2. Scissors

3. Black Sharpie (Any color you want)

4. Shiny gorgeous ribbon

STEPS:

  

1. Download the printable envelopes Here and print them out. (If you just want to buy envelopes instead of printing them skip steps 2-9) (Courtesy of botanicalpaperworks.com )

2.  Print the envelopes

3. Cut the outline out, making sure to cut along the black line to ensure best results.

4. Fold the long flat bottom piece upwards.

5. Fold the side pieces inwards (Pay attention  to the corners as if you mess up the envelope could be crooked.)

6. Glue the side pieces on top of the flat bottom pieces.

7.  Test out how secure the flabs are in place.

8. Fold down the top flab and admire your handy dandy work :)

9. Add desired note/letter inside

10.  Label and add preferred ribbon

11. ENJOY!

Xoxo,
