We all have dreamt about making those cute artsy items we saw on Pinterest and FB videos. Well, now that you have all the time - here's your chance to make that dream come true. While we don’t lack the enthusiasm, we do run short of supplies most of the times as we don’t know where to find that quirky stationery.
So, we have compiled a list which might help.
Every DIYer who has followed all those quirky videos knows how important this piece of stationery is. Be it sticking ropes around your vase or gluing jewels on a photo frame, hot glue gun makes a lot of work easier.
One of our favourites on the list, washi tapes have the power to transform any mundane thing into something spectacular. They are simple, cute and have an array of designs to choose from. So, if you are making a card or wrapping a gift, deck it up with washi tapes. Go glittery or choose a cute kitty pattern.
They are convenient, quick and very important if you are thinking of giving anything a solid makeover. So, if you are turning that tin box into a gold jewellery box or colouring every flower pot in your garden in a different hue, you need to have them.
This colourful string will come in handy in a lot of cool projects you take up along with baking. Be it gift wrapping, textural home decor, jewellery or other fashion projects, you will need the magic twine.
If you plan to make those tiny flowers to stick on your frames, doors, mirrors etc, or if you like making your own jewellery, then you should go for air dry clay which becomes as hard as a stone after drying. You can also go for coloured versions or just paint over it when it’s dried.
Art lovers love these for how convenient and awesome they are. You can use paint pens to write edgy text over anything. Be it coffee mugs or mason jars or just cute one-liners on your cupboard, these are a must have.
Those neat paper cuts in tutorials are not done using scissors. If you want to get all professional, you need professional tools too. Get an x acto knife for smoother and neater results.
If you plan to go all DIY with most stuff you use (which you should), needle nose pliers will come in handy. They are essential for opening and closing jump rings, bending wire, securing crimp beads & ribbon ends and cutting through jewellery chain and wire.
Well, at a point all of us have stapled our finger (ouch...!) with a stapler. So, whether you're clumsy or no, or just want to be on the safe side, we'd highly recommend using this cute little device. As the name suggests, a stapleless stapler don't really require staple pins and thus is an amazing alternative to the traditional stapler.
#LBBTip: However, it can staple only a limited number of papers (say maybe only 5-6)
Love writing letters? If yes, we're sure you'll love this piece of stationery. To be honest, wax seals are simply the coolest - they add a sense of elegance, can be easily personalised and lastly are pretty thoughtful. There are a number of online and offline stores that offer an array of wax seals with different designs, patterns and words.
