Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it we go nowhere.

I look so evil but it's like a DIY ad or a vote for president poster :P 


Your mind makes so many wonderful things but in action the results are disappointing? 
Oh yes I am like you. But that doesn't mean i will not try to improve myself. 
Because let's face it. You are going to love your babies more than the one's you are going 
to buy (sometimes overpriced!). older posts here and here


Those 2 DIY projects (ideas taken from online) are 5 months old. 
My room has changed since then. I found so many things to add and i was so lucky
buying them in very low prices!! And as I said in the previous post, more of them later ^^


Who can say no to those little beautiful creatures? 
If you cannot have a real bat flying around, 
then why not making some to decorate your room? 

First of all find a picture of the favourite bat shape you like or draw one. 
I found some here. Then you need the amount of Paper according to how many bats you want 
to make ( you can use whatever paper you want in whatever form that is up to you! ) 
then Scissors, A Black Marker ( Again you can use whatever colour you want ) 
and some Glue if you are going to make bat layers. 


And some white in a black background.


The more the better ^^


My lamp's "hat" is falling apart, but in some way is really helpful 
so I added some bats inside it. Ohh yes during the daytime is really... normal!! 
And boom...


...when the night comes, here comes also the fun part!!



I made those little ghosts during the hard summer days,
when my window was open all day. 
Whenever it was windy those ghosts made me feel like Halloween ^^ 

If you want to make some there are plenty ways online,
but here is my simple project. 


Ok, the ping pong balls are not that simple to find 
but you can find and add whatever round thing you own. 
White lace, white thread, napkins of your choice, 
cotton, black marker, imagination etc.


Two version how to hang them.


I love DIY so if you know or did anything please let me know. 
I would love to see more!!!

    1. Ομορφιά μου, ειλικρινά κάνω κάτι asdfghjkl όταν λαμβάνω σχόλια σου!! Όχι επειδή με "στολίζεις" απο πάνω μέχρι κάτω με omg κοπλιμεντα, αλλά γιατί μαρέσει ο τρόπος που γράφεις. Χαχα τα όμορφα φρύδια, όμορφα βάφονται! Η αλήθεια είναι οτι μπορεί να με πάρουν και πιο πολύ ώρα απο το υπόλοιπο makeup αλλα είμαι μια περίφανη μάνα χαχα :Ρ Και να μην θέλεις τίποτα, έχεις ομορφιά όπως ακριβώς είσαι! Μην ακούω χαζα...

  4. Excellent idea with the bats on the inside of the lampshade! We have to do our own Halloween decorations right! But that only makes it more fun and less tacky. :)

  7. The lampshade is an amazing DIY idea :D I don't really have any particular fondness of bats, but I used to make bat-shaped "stickers" from window colours (that liquid stuff that dries and you can stick it on window) and put it on glass mugs or in the corners of mirrors:D

  8. Yay! I finally managed to create an account on blogspot, so now I can comment in your beautiful blog :D I really enjoy these DIY ideas, I've already put them -well, at least one- in practice and I have made some bats to decorate my room. I'll be doing the little ghosts in a few days when I get all the materials I need ^^
