Here’s Your Star-Studded Weekend: 21 Stellar DIYs
With the Oscars fresh in our minds, we’ve all got stars on the brain. In particular, Ryan Gosling and Jared Leto are on our minds over here at Brit + Co. But we digress. Today we are talking about the other kind of star, as in the shape. We’ve got 21 DIY ideas making use of this fabulous shape. So grab a ruler and maybe a Jell-O shot (because let’s face it… there isn’t much that doesn’t call for a Jell-O shot), and pull up a chair. It’s going to be a starry night.
1. Cut + Fold Paper Stars: As you know, we LOVE color over here at Brit + Co. And these little bits of fabulousness certainly do our obsession justice. (via Minieco)
2. Sequin Barrette: These barrettes are just darling and not to mention easy peasy to make. They transition well from occasion wearing to everyday wearing. (via Kristi Murphy)
3. Star Ornaments: These aren’t your holiday ornaments. These super chic star ornaments are for everyday. They look great hanging from a modern rustic branch like this. (via Oh Happy Day)
4. Muslin Swaddle Blanket: We love how this swaddle blanket can grow with your little one. It doesn’t scream “baby.” (via Say Yes)
