Aqua

This is my latest guest post for the DesignLoveFest blog. Must be Montreal’s harsh weather that makes me crave aqua blue. Now what about this banana dress! Would you wear it or is it too crazy? –Stephanie

DIY- Papier Maché Valentine’s Day Heart

My partner in crime Camille and I have come up with a cute papier mâché heart for V-Day! We really can’t get enough of papier mâché! Remember the cutest Christmas tree she made for our pop boutique? It’s such a fun craft technique because you can create any form you want to!

Here is our papier maché Valentine’s day heart!

I love the fact that you can create 3d shapes with papier maché. The good thing about it is that you can customize all the faces creating a fun decorative object. Also it’s super cheap to make! All you need is cardboard (old shoe boxes will do the trick), masking tape, newspaper scraps, home made glue (a mix of flour and water), some colorful paint and a whole lot of patience!

I love the side, Camille painted some XO designs on it with a large paintbrush.

Our little French slogan “coeur en joie” means joyful heart. What would you write on yours?
