This week i had to take one of my children to an appointment where i had to wear a mask. Although I've been wearing masks regularly throughout the pandemic, this is the first time I've had to wear one in front of one of my boys. He's a little on the anxious side, so i thought if i customised my mask to make it look a little more friendly and fun, he would find it less frightening, and hopefully find the transition of me and others wearing face coverings less intimidating. </div>

I had a root around my craft box and opted for these <a href="https://www.josyrose.com/p-73/glue-on-diamantes" target="_blank">small crystal AB diamante</a>. They are a great choice for this project because you can attach all the stones around the darts and seams without compromising the integrity of the mask or your design. They are also fine to be hand washed at 30, as is the mask. The glue is also perfect, it drys fast and clear, but most importantly it has a little give and stretch in it, rather than drying like a hard rock.</div>

I'm sure you will have noticed lots of rainbows popping up in people's windows since the schools closed due to lockdown. The message behind this visual display is that <i>"after every storm comes the sun and if you’re lucky a rainbow will
emerge between the clouds"</i>. Rainbows are made up of seven different vibrant and beautiful colours and never fail to lift peoples spirits. Because of this, rainbows have long been
symbols of hope and inclusiveness. The idea behind the 'rainbow windows' was that children could count the rainbows they see while they are out exercising, hoping to spot new ones each day. And as adults, we can appreciate the message behind this simple show of solidarity and hope. </div>

So, when craft time came round again, rainbows were obviously the first thing to come to mind.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my sequin film rainbow decoration, inspired by the rainbow window message. It's a cutie!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Follow the step-by-step guide below.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
1) Firstly, select some rainbow coloured rolls of <a href="https://www.josyrose.com/p-490/sequin-film" target="_blank">sequin film</a>. I used a selection of hologram, metallic and matte finishes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2) I drew around a small plate to create the first rainbow red layer. Then i used a compass to create the other rainbow layers, reducing each layer size by 1cm. As you can see, i sellotaped the red layer and the tape measure to the table to prevent it from sliding around. I simply stuck the layers on top of one another using double sided tape.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqJmkzhd67ZSYfQZBDkNYXYgzIrae875d077jfyBt9AoCMQhB3dJFihRXUDXp_gkUhr_jX2k_w5XoCL1uJwYOj5QZzFekNZ3_9rcDaIrrF5bLRlgSKOdlii0ul8vpQ2mldQXVMiOu0Ew/s1600/Rainbow+Project+3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqJmkzhd67ZSYfQZBDkNYXYgzIrae875d077jfyBt9AoCMQhB3dJFihRXUDXp_gkUhr_jX2k_w5XoCL1uJwYOj5QZzFekNZ3_9rcDaIrrF5bLRlgSKOdlii0ul8vpQ2mldQXVMiOu0Ew/s320/Rainbow+Project+3.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3) Once all the different coloured layers are stuck together, i lifted the piece off the table and cut out the very last rainbow arch, snipping through every layer in the process.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYVcTh8Jy_PMVEvVsKi3FMSgHWDOnpUzBzvY4NVOlzNLW1qZRc7cFZWH8YE2aRPGVUkVGGGJBkaSXwBtYvoNJV3m0Ij_Y-Jmm_bxWcSb7-Dq1zmi4PhGDcecBDmZaVIgU2_SBQzv77ow/s1600/Rainbow+Project1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYVcTh8Jy_PMVEvVsKi3FMSgHWDOnpUzBzvY4NVOlzNLW1qZRc7cFZWH8YE2aRPGVUkVGGGJBkaSXwBtYvoNJV3m0Ij_Y-Jmm_bxWcSb7-Dq1zmi4PhGDcecBDmZaVIgU2_SBQzv77ow/s320/Rainbow+Project1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4) Next it's time to add the sequins (there's always sequins!). I used sequins from our extra sparkly hologram mixed shape pack JR02353</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
5) String the sequins onto cotton. I opted for coordinating coloured thread. After a bit of trial and error, i found the fastest and easiest technique is to thread the cotton through the sequin hole from front to back 2 or 3 times to anchor it into place, suspending them at intervals along the cotton. I attached them to the reverse of the rainbow with tape.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
6) Next i added a glitter fabric cloud. I chose sparkly silver white <a href="https://www.josyrose.com/p-511/glitter-fabric-sheets" target="_blank">JR09047</a> and simply stuck it to the front of the cloud with double sided tape.</div>

My son also enjoyed pilfering the supplies and he made some fancy dress headpieces. We are all super heros now after all! We are all in this together, even if that means we have
to stay apart.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Stay Safe.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #828080; font-family: "open sans" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">As you all know, we manufacture our own sequins here at our London factory. For some time we have been focusing on ways of making our production process more sustainable. Although we have long been satisfied with our 0% waste production rates (the sequin hole creates chunky glitter and the film left around the punched sequins creates honeycomb/punchinella), we have been looking at ways to make the whole process more environmentally friendly too. So, we are so excited to be at the point where we can tell you guys that we have been working on a brand new range of plant based <b>biodegradable sequins</b> too! </span></div>

These sequins are made from true biodegradable plastic, which will happily compost along side your cucumbers and carrot stumps! This range has been under development for a while, but we are now 100% happy with our sequin prototypes and are thrilled to announce that the biodegradable sequins are now in production! So watch this space, they will be for sale in a few months once we have stamped, photographed and catalogued them all!!</span></span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Snip your </span>grosgrain<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> into four pieces.</span></li>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I went for 6cm pieces, but it depends on how big/small you want your brooch!</span></li>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">(don't worry about trailing ends, we'll get rid of them in a minute)</span></li>
</ul>
</ul>
</ul>
<h2>
<u><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">STEP 2.</span></u></h2>
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Cut a diagonal line across the bottom of your grosgrain, and seal ribbon with a lighter or other flame source.</span></li>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I used a lighter because I like the wavy line is can produce, adding to my ghostie's spooky effect!</span></li>
</ul>
</ul>
<h2 style="text-align: left;">
<u><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">STEP 3.</span></u></h2>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<ul>
<li>Glue<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> your pieces together, overlapping each </span>ribbon<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> just before halfway.</span></li>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You don't need lots of glue for this, just a little gem-tac does the trick.</span></li>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Wait for the glue to dry!</span></li>
</ul>
</ul>
</ul>
<h2>
<u><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">STEP 4.</span></u></h2>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Once the glue in dry, curve the top of your ghostie with your scissors, and seal it again with your lighter or other flame source.</span></li>
</ul>
<h2>
<u><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">STEP 5.</span></u></h2>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="clear: left; float: left; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVGzAL6MTyxbSxPd-47wIqeKo-7xyTGbriI4a-dg4QMMwOziraDtRH9QEOSAA0fMdA0Mb4Qph4nvoYLldeLG_zRPzVIS60tw_hMJ2_Vqw0fTqPWcM4nmx_YCTQRxWKu9T21FMDa5ivyw/s640/pixlr+step+5.jpg" width="640" /></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Add your eyes!</span></li>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I found this best to do over the joins, and then I added a tiny little bit of glue to the centre join about halfway down, just to keep it together.</span></li>
</ul>
</ul>
<h2>
<u><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">STEP 6.</span></u></h2>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now for the little bow.</span></li>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Cut about 10cm of your coloured ribbon (I went for purple!) and seal the ends.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The easiest way to do this bit is to cross the ribbon as shown above and glue together.</span></li>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Wait for glue to dry.</span></li>
</ul>
</ul>

<br /></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Flip your ribbon over and, pinching the middle, twist it over.</span></li>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Add a little glue over the back of your original join and stick it down.</span></li>
</ul>
</ul>

<ul>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Or a button! Or any sort of decoration that you see fit.</span></li>

<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I've glued mine, but it's also possible to sew it on if you feel that's appropriate.</span></li>
<ul>

Ribbons are an excellent way to introduce colour to a room or an item and <a href="https://www.josyrose.com/">Josy Rose</a> has a fantastic range of ribbons suitable for all uses and all are available to order online.<br />
<br />
Don’t be afraid to experiment with unexpected combinations of ribbons to create something really special. If you’re stuck for ideas read on and be inspired! Want to give your bedroom a new look? Why not trim plain white bed linen and curtains with blue and gingham ribbon for a fresh seaside or country look. Match them with a set of satin curtain tie backs in a wider width. Then, place a simple bow on the front of the tie back for a decoration.<br />
<br />

Create your own tree template. Lay it on a sheet of A4 glitter fabric, and cut around it to make the desired shape. Make a further five sections to represent the branches of the tree.<br />
<br />
Place three of the tree sections glitter side down. Support the sections by laying a coat hanger wire down the trunk and at the foot of each tree.<br />
<br />
Cut the wire to the required length and stick it in place using the glue gun. Postion the other side of the tree on top, glitter side out, to create three pairs of wired glittery sections.<br />
<br />
Glue all three trees together, along the central trunks, making a fir tree shape. Stick assorted buttons onto the tips of the stems for decoration. String beads, buttons and sequins onto thin wire to create a tinsel effect, then wrap it around the tree.<br />
<br />
Finish, by placing a diamanté button at the tree top, and a wire hook should you want to hang the decoration up. To make the tree a table centre piece, add bigger glass beads on the feet.<br />
<br />
Tip: Make light work of tricky and time consuming applications by simply opting for a handy glue gun. Plus, if you make a mistake, the glue can usually be picked off in one chunk, and you can try again!<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Loosely lay the glitter fabric over the mask, feel for the eye holes & snip a cross in each socket area. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br />
Remove the backing and press firmly onto the mask base, start from the eyes & work your way out to the edges of the mask. Fold the 4 quarters from each eye cross through the holes, onto the back of the mask. Snip a few darts into the fabric around the edge of the mask to make folding it over easier and tidier.</div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Attach two pieces of ribbon to the inside of the mask, one on each edge, in line with the eye sockets. Tie these around the back of your head to figure out your required length. For extra impact, you could keep these long and thread beads onto the ends!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If you find the back of the mask a little too scratchy, line it with a slightly smaller sheet of felt, cutting out oval eye holes this time.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Construct two cone shaped horns by simply twisting the fabric, gluing it in place as you go. Square the ends off with a sharp pair of scissors. Glue gun them in place, using lots of glue!</div>

This bracelet is inspired by spring time blooms and is guaranteed to uplift any outfit with its vibrant colours & happy vibes! Multiple layers make it appear like a complex piece, but in fact it is super simple as they simply stack on top of one another. Here is how we made it:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Measure your wrist & cut a piece of jewellery making jelly cord to length, allowing extra for tying the knot upon completion.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thread a mixture of bugle beads, <a href="https://www.josyrose.com/" target="_blank">pearl seed beads</a>, <a href="https://www.josyrose.com/d-3/sequins" target="_blank">sequins</a> & handmade clay flower beads onto the cord.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHMQDcmkBqBZIsG8QSIsEgZc-UzSiFxyxYp1mfVPfNUaDy0ARd244jGdBPM4sbFeXQb5EL1cQhCJjduq4SMt5SlM4KwgX-k5Xe3U9BGG5b7bRL7M7BFDYymBumumOB5aJZNAB6wEljUA/s1600/Clay+Bracelet+a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="414" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHMQDcmkBqBZIsG8QSIsEgZc-UzSiFxyxYp1mfVPfNUaDy0ARd244jGdBPM4sbFeXQb5EL1cQhCJjduq4SMt5SlM4KwgX-k5Xe3U9BGG5b7bRL7M7BFDYymBumumOB5aJZNAB6wEljUA/s640/Clay+Bracelet+a.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Tie a knot at the end & snip off the excess. For a more professional finish, use crimp beads. Thread both ends of the cord through the crimp so they are over lapping. Then flatten it with pliers to secure the cord. It makes working with slippy cords easier to handle & more secure.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
--------------------------------------------------------</div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
Top Tips:</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Try and keep to a few colours to give the piece a feeling of unity. Here we have selected red, pink, orange & yellow with a hint of green.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Create some plain beaded layers too, to help the beautifully embellished layers take centre stage.</div>

Driven with a desire to help others, raise money for the vital service Macmillan Nurses provide and as a cathartic way to channel the emotions of her loss, she has decided to ''Brave the Shave'' and shave her head in order to raise money for the charity.

<div>
1: Measure cord so it fits your wrist comfortably, allowing for an extra 10cm. Cut three lengths and tie a knot at one end of each piece. Add a crimp bead, then thread the cord through a 3-bar spacer.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
2: Push another crimp onto the cord. Add the first set of beads, then finish the row with a diamanté. Double check the amount of beads used against the size of your wrist as you work. Repeat three times. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
3: When the stringing is complete, thread the remainder of the cord back through the first crimp bead, the corresponding hole on the spacer bar, then the second crimp. To secure the beads in place, squash the crimps flat using pliers. Untie, then snip off excess cord.</div>

4: To create the feature charm, assemble a small length of chain using three jump rings. Thread a selection of pearl and diamanté beads onto 1” head pins. Trim away 1cm above the beads. Using pliers, bend the wire into a loop. Secure onto the chain at different heights, from smallest to largest to create a cluster effect. </div>

5: Finish with a mother-of-pearl heart button, securing a pendant mount through the bottom hole using pliers. Attach to the last jump ring on the chain. Add a mother-of pearl pendant mount, then hang from the bottom hole of the 3-bar spacer.</div>

Simply select some coloured malleable craft wire. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://www.josyrose.com/c-7/buttons" target="_blank">Thread the wire with buttons, ribbon roses and sequins, leaving a few gaps for some feature applique.</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Tie the embellished wire into a circle.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Manipulate the embellished circle into a heart shape.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Add a small beaded tassel to the inner point of the heart, using the ribbon loop as a hanger.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Tip: Although the heart is embellished with lots of different beads and buttons, we have opted to use similar, complimentary coloured items, to give the piece a feeling of unity.</b></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made them both following the same principles.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Firstly, make a cone shape using <a href="https://www.josyrose.com/p-490/sequin-film" target="_blank">sequin film</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thread a section of wire through the cone opening, leaving enough length on either side to manipulate into a hanging loop at the top and fashion into fairy legs or a tree trunk at the bottom.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Attach fringing to the inside of the wide cone opening. Double sided tape works great on sequin film. <b>Now for the fun decorating bit!</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>For the fairy</i></b> i over layered the cone with some sequin waste <a href="https://www.josyrose.com/c-42/sequin-film-and-sequin-waste-punchinella" target="_blank">punchinella</a> which created a cute pattern for the fairy dress. I made her a sparkly pair of shoes and matching cloak made from glitter fabric, topped with little paper hands holding a heart shaped acrylic stone. Using sequin film again, i cut out some fairy wings opting for the ethereal 'Oriental' transparent film with a subtle AB finish. Then decorated them with sequins and used a paper punch to cut out a delicate wing pattern. For the face, i snipped the top off the cone and replaced it with a smaller flesh coloured card cone. Here i used small sequins cut in half for the eyes and tiny ones for cheeks and lips. I glued it all together using a glue gun and then topped her of with a main of damson and lilac feathers!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This fairy is ready to party; I love her skinny wire legs and sparkle shoes captured mid prance!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>For the tree</i></b> i decorated the cone with <a href="https://www.josyrose.com/d-3/sequins" target="_blank">sequins</a> gluing the centre in place and bending the tips to make them 3D. Then i glued on some glitter fabric circles, sequins and a bow. I finished the wire with a glitter fabric plant pot at the bottom and threaded a <a href="https://www.josyrose.com/d-4/diamante" target="_blank">star shaped bead</a> through the top. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Both decorations are super cheap to make and can be embellished with any sparkles you have in your craft box. Get creative and enjoy yourself!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are a few snaps of them on my tree... </div>
