Star paper is another thing you can stack up on. If you were dedicated, you could probably cut your own star paper using a cutting mat, but due to the size of it, I find it quite tedious. I prefer to buy the packs from shops. You can usually find them as Asian specialist stores. …
Ribbon obsession
I went home for a bit and visited the local haberdashery when the market was open. I ended up buying lots of ribbons to make hair clips with! I made ribbon barrettes a while back, but I wasn't too happy with the blue one that I made, mainly because I wasn't able to buy a …

Blue spider pendant
