Poppy Makes... a mandala colouring page

Today I have got a new mandala colouring page, free for you to download. All you have to do is click here. I haven't posted it on the colouring page yet but, if you just click on the link you will be able to download it. I will also post it later today on the colouring pages page. It is a Sinterklaas inspired colouring page because next Monday it will be Pakjesavond. Pakjesavond is every year on December 5th and is the day when we celebrate the birthday of Sinterklaas. Sinterklaas lives in Spain and visits Holland every year by boat. He always arrives a couple of weeks before Pakjesavond and children (also adults) are then allowed to put their shoe by the fireplace (or door or window or just any good spot) so when you sleep he brings a gift, kind of like hanging up your stocking. To receive a gift in your shoe you can sing a song, leave something yummy for Sinterklaas and/or his horse, make a pretty drawing etc. And then the next morning you are most likely to find a gift on your shoe mostly a small gift or some kind of sweets. Have fun! 

P.S. Also don't forget to checkout my latest video tutorial in which I show you how to make chocolate bark holiday style. And you can also follow me on
YouTube, Twitter, Instagram & Pinterest so you will never miss a thing.

So you might really want to start thinking about what you are going to give to your loved ones. It is always difficult to buy gifts and making doesn't always work out. You see all of these cool DIY projects which might seem easy but lack explanation or isn't quite clear of what the next step should be... That is why I made a selection of DIY projects which I have posted here on my blog which are easy to follow because of the step by step video tutorial, some might even have FREE printables and they are super fun to make.

Even if you are planning to make this for a not Fantastic Beasts or harry Potter fan (I don't even know how that would be possible) a scarf is always a nice gift especially a handmade scarf. You could use different colours then the ones I am using and make it a Gryffindor, Ravenclaw or maybe a Slytherin inspired house scarf.  Don't forget to give the video a thumbs up, subscribe to my YouTube channel & have fun!

3. homemade chocolate bark with a festive twist

Chocolate is yum but it is even more delicious when you make your own chocolate with with your favourite (holiday related) sweets.  Chocolate bark is so very easy and fun to make and makes for a super fun DIY gift.

5. a filled clear bauble

I have actually got 2 video tutorials with clear baubles. This is a DIY gift anyone can make. Even if you are not creative at all or disaster happens every time you are near glitter. All you need is a clear bauble a gift that would fit into the bauble or some (holiday related) sweets. The first video is more Christmas related and the second one is for that one person in your family who you can never give to much Harry Potter related gift and is inspired by Neville's remembrall.  Don't forget to give the video a thumbs up, subscribe to my YouTube channel & have fun!

6. a gift jar

This might seem odd, a Father's day video tutorial... But in the video I show you how to make a super cute gift jar with on top of the lid a Lego figurine glued to it. To make it more festive add a small Santa or more personal to the one your giving it to his/hers favourite comic figurine the possibilities are endless. Fill the jar with schuimpjes to give it a Sinterklaas twist or fill it with all green and red chocolates to give it more of a Christmas twist or just the persons favourite sweets. So this is not a gift only for dad's you can make it personal and give it to whoever you want.  Don't forget to give the video a thumbs up, subscribe to my YouTube channel & have fun!

7. more chocolate

After I have just suggested the Father's day video tutorial I can't ignore the Mother's day video tutorial. In this tutorial I will show you how to make really delish chocolate's. You can make all the chocolates I show you or just pick one. These will be a great hit to anyone you'll give them to, cause who doesn't love chocolate and they will be so pleasantly surprised you made them. Same goes here these aren't just for moms only. Use a different molde to make them more manly or use a different sort of sweets like maybe candy canes to give it a Christmas twist. Don't forget to give the video a thumbs up, subscribe to my YouTube channel & have fun!

8. an embroidery painting

Again two video's and one is again a Father's day tutorial. In these tutorials I show you how to embroider either a superman logo or a Minion's Face onto a canvas. It is a little time consuming but the results are really cute. These video tutorials both come with FREE printables.

This would be the best gift for that person who just loves superman or adores the Minion like I do.  Don't forget to give the video a thumbs up, subscribe to my YouTube channel & have fun!
