DIY Flower Decor

Hello people! Today is DIY day. Hope this topic can help you to reduce rubbish by recycling the materials to do some art works =)

Saw the egg carton that was prepared to be thrown away and thought i can do something with it for some mini projects.


So i cut out the egg carton into the shape of flowers.  And prepare some colours for the flower and some green papers or fabrics for the background. My plan was to use the toilet roll as the pot to accommodate the flowers.


Colouring can take some time as i need to make sure it is completely dried. I used orange and light blue to create the colour-block effect.

The green background should have enough volume to tuck into the toilet roll which has 1/4 portion being cut out to accommodate the flowers.


I used some wheat-flour modeling dough to decorate the centre of the flower. But you can also use something else, e.g. buttons, or any other creative materials.


Lastly, use blue tag or glue to secure the flower on the green materials in the toilet roll and here goes your DIY flower pot which can be hanged or stuck on the wall. You can also paint the toilet roll to make look more sophisticated.


I decide to put the flower pot on the wall decorating my mini art gallery. It makes the wall look more vibrant and lively. So i'm satisfied with this effect =)

Ps: Today the company i applied for called me! Hopefully i'll get an interview soon and start working asap =) Fingers crossed!
