DIY Christmas decorations / Décorations de Noel fait main !

Hello everyone !
How are you ? Freezing ? ;)

I'm still a child when it's the christmas season.. Snow flake, christmas songs, cute decorations, I love it ! My favorite thing is to light some candles and listen to old 20's or 30's christmas songs at home with a tea or an hot chocolate ♡ And you ?

This year, I wanted to try a new thing for my christmas tree : doing my own decorations !
As I already sew and do knitting, I bought some materials and found some cute stuff on my sewing boxes to create...


 You will need :

- Scissors
- Needles
- Cotton
- Glue
- Some stencils of your favorite forms ( Snow flake, tree, stars... )
- Thin felt
- Ribbons, sequins, buttons..
- Pearls

And now it's time to create ! Just let your imagination run wild ;) Christmas tree, snow man, snow flake, house, Santa claus... You can choose your material according to the colors you chose for your christmas tree. I wanted to have the classical colors this year : white, red and green <3


And to finish, every year I bought for my tree a new decoration. I found them in Monoprix ( french supermarket ) and I think they are perfectly cute ! They look like old children's toys...


If you wanna try your own decorations this year, please tag me on your Instagram pictures or Facebook ;) I want to see your christmas trees !

Kisses,
Lulu

Two thirsty bitches in London ♡

Hello guys !
How are you doing ?

Last week I went to London for 4 days with my friend Camille♡ It was a pure girls week end, with shopping, girls talk and parties of course !



First day was the gig of Asking Alexandria ( first reason we were here actually ), really love this band ! Naturally, we were dressed to kill and took a lot of selfies ( and drank to many Jager Bomb...)





The second day was an attempt to make shopping but we failed because of our hangover...


But the last day we put things right and went to Camden and Oxford street to spend our money, and finish well with friends in a glam rock party all niiiight !






And you, where are you from ? Which city do you prefer for a week end ?

Lulu.

Jack the pumpkin king's ! DIY pumpkin carving

Hello everyone !

Do you feel those spooky days ? Are you as excited as me ?
-HALLOWEEN-


It's kinda sad because in France, where I live, Halloween is not so trendy.. So we can't found a lot of home accessories, or decoration in shops outside. I remember when I was young, ringing at the doors, saying " trick or treats ! " and wearing witch costume, it's a precious memory for me..
So I find some comfort with all this creepy but sexy make up on Instagram, those amazing girls all around the world and their ideas spreading the Halloween spirit..!

I couldn't spend this period without decorating a little my flat so I decided to bought a pumpkin and today I'll show you the process for a perfect Jack Skellington carving !


First, you have to cut a hole in the pumpkin and scoop out the flesh, pulp and seeds.


Time to draw your design on the better face of the pumpkin ! I choose the angry face of Jack the pumpkin king 


 You can now carve the features. Beware !



And finally, light your pumpkin 
Spooky !

Do you love the Halloween spirit ? Do you have DIY Halloween decorations or your own pumpkins ? Show me yours !

Madly Clothing



Hello there !

For my first post, I chose to speak about my new handmade brand Madly !
After few attempts, my sister and I finally found the way to express our creativity and love for fashion in our own clothes and accessories. Since our young age, our mother taught us how to sew and knit, and that's contributed to our creativity for sure ! 
We decided, as it's only handmade items, to create rock but girly goods, to accessorize your perfect badass outfits. So you will be able to purchase 2 to 4 little collections a year, according to the seasons.

Today, I'm proud to show you the very first collection of Madly : a multicolored and girly collection for the summer and the early autumn.
Keyword : faux fur, scoubidou, leatherette, fruits, pink, blue, palm tree..!











My good friends Leslie was the photograph, and we found a really beautiful place in Paris, where palm tree and beautiful colors gave this amazing atmosphere.
Thanks again to Charlotte, my beautiful other model, and Camille for the help !

Don't hesitate to like our Facebook page and take a look at our Etsy shop !


Have a nice day,
Lulu
