"It's summer and the best time for butterfly projects. I like his editor's pick. It has some of the most interesting crafts, from metallic ones to paper ones. I love that you can use these for various projects like cake toppers or decorative pieces for other projects. I like the butterfly mobile best, I know a friend who will love it."

"Toilet paper can make the cutest decor pieces for your home. I wouldn't think this was home made, it looks like something that a laser cutter made. With a dash of spray paint, in whatever colour, that blends in with your theme. I'd stick with silver or gold and maybe add some glitter to make it pop."

"How adorable are these, they kinda look like stands for holding your phone while it charges. Infact I'll make them with this use in mind because I like making practical more than decorative things. I love how cute they turn out though so if you attached a folded paperclip, just wide enough to hold your phone. It makes a cute decor piece for your side table."

"I love these toilet paper animals, they are so adorable and easy to make. I want to make an owl one with some leftover cardstock . You can colour the tubes with whatever colour you want but since this is a kid's craft, let them decide. A cool trick I learnt is to melt crayons and use them instead of paint."

"I love gem colours, pastel colours and sea blues, greens and choral colours for summer. Whatever summer home decor I'm making whether indoor or outdoor, I tend to colour them in those colours. I've recently learnt how to paint fabric so I'll put that to the test."

"Get your front door ready for summer with this Patriotic Red, White & Blue Wreath. Made with silk flower carnation picks, this DIY is so simple to create and will last from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Store the wreath throughout the year and when Independence Day nears it will look as fantastic as it did when you first made it. With a rectangular piece of styrofoam, use similar steps to create an American flag."
