As you know, today do-it-yourself gift ideas are valued much higher than a banal trip to the store and the purchase of another unnecessary trinket. Some people have a logical question: "Why?" First of all, because the person who decided to make a gift for you independently loves and appreciates you very much. That is why it is fundamentally important for him to make a present for himself by putting his heart and soul into it. And in no case should this person be blamed for the lack of money or time for going to the store. Because things hand-made really become very popular, and not only among young people. We offer you a couple of options on how to make a present yourself. A gift to a girlfriend with her own hands will look much more beautiful, comparing favorably with standard store presents, wrapped in bright, but no less standard packaging.
So, we will consider a couple of options of what kind of gift a friend can do with her own hands and what we need for this. Since we want to present not only a good gift, but also the right one, we suggest staying on the option of a female diary. Certainly, other options for a woman’s gift exist, but for a girl it’s a daily planner that will be a very necessary thing, because now it has become fashionable to keep so-called “personal diaries” where you can write down all your thoughts. Another plus of such a diary is its unusualness. We don’t argue, now many companies produce notebooks with a bright and simply awesome cover, but no one will have such a diary as your girlfriend, and this is his obvious plus that any girl will certainly appreciate. Remember that the main thing is attention, not a gift (if it turned out to be not too good).
Having decided on what kind of gift we want to make to our girlfriend, we need to prepare the necessary materials, which will be discussed later. In the process of making a gift we will need: a
regular diary (or a simple thick notebook), two pieces of beautiful multi-colored paper with different patterns (plain will not work), glue, rhinestones (of any size and shape, you can even beads or beads), scissors and fine decorative ribbon. So, the material is ready, now we proceed to describe how to make a gift to a friend with our own hands.
We start with a very banal action - we glue the entire front of the notebook with glue. Then you should very carefully bring our colored paper and stick it, making sure that the edges of the colored paper and the diary coincide. It is only necessary to glue the paper (!) On the front part, completely leaving the side of the notebook open. To prevent the paper from clumping (which often happens when adding glue), we try to press hard on the edges of the notebook at the time of gluing. This will help get rid of excess air inside, due to which uneven edges are formed. If you have already made such a mistake, then it can be easily fixed by putting the notebook under the press for a day.
Next, draw up the side of the notebook. For this you will need a second piece of colored paper with a different pattern. We cut out the corresponding strip and glue it on top of the first layer of paper, but so that it only gets out a little on it. Again, carefully press the edges.
Now, only the decor with the ribbon and rhinestones remains - this is entirely and completely depends on your imagination.
Do-it-yourself gifts on March 8 will be as relevant as on your birthday, and maybe you decide to make just such a diary for your girlfriend or mom.
