9 brilliant, cheap and easy crafts and gifts

I decided to do a round up of some of the amazing crafts and DIYs I've come across on Pinterest over the last few weeks. There's a real range of ideas here so hopefully there will be something for everyone! I definitely want to try these all out one day.

1. DIY gilded papier mache bowl

This looks really easy and you can customise the shape, size and colours to your taste. (Beauty and Bedlam)

2. Pom-pom pushpins

These will brighten up any notice board! You could also make them with little magnets to go on the fridge. (Sarah Hearts)

3. DIY washi tape tea lights

So pretty and so simple. They'd be really lovely for Christmas in reds and greens as well. (The Benson Street)

4. Sweater slipper boots

Recycle an old jumper for cosy toes. (Most Interesting Things)

5. Driftwood Sailboat

One of my own! But one of my favourites. (Anna Louise at Home)

6. DIY "Polaroid" photo coasters

A great and simple way to make personalised coasters (One Good Thing)

7. Drift wood lamp

An amazing Ikea hack! (Ikea Hackers)

8. Vintage tea cup planters

Really sweet idea for the garden - vintage tea cups can be found in pretty much every charity shop! (Modern Magazin)

9. Seashell candle holder

This one might well be my favourite - I just need to get hold of a glue gun before I try it! (Whats Ur Home Story)

Hope you have fun trying these out for yourselves!
