To make this fun little chair by Andrés Lhima, all you need to do is unfold it and stuff it with whatever you have on hand–leaves, towels, plastic bags.

All About The Packaging: Wrapping Paper Tape
Now we know what to do with all the random scraps and strips of wrapping paper we’ve been saving! Country Living has a tutorial on turning them into tape with some double-stick adhesive.

Easy DIY: Streamer Curtain
After creating a streamer wall for Selina’s third birthday, we started the think about easier ways to get the same effect. We decided a curtain we could roll up and re-use was the way to go.
You’ll need:
* Streamers
* Double-sided tape
* A dowel
* Scissors
Cut streamers to your desired length. We doubled our streamers so that they would lay over the dowel. This makes the curtain fuller. Attach double-sided tape to the length of the dowel and then start laying down your streamers.
Keep going the length of the dowel until it is covered. You may have to trim the ends so they are even, or you could just leave them as-is. Then, you can take your curtain down after the party and carefully roll it up to use again another time.
Can I Have This?: Withmilk Tea/Coffee Set
Having limited space means we just love things that store away neatly. The Withmilk tea/coffee set looks like a milk bottle when stacked, but is actually four cups, a small bottle and a snack/sugar bowl.

Love Links: Toca Boca Apps and the New Free Kitchen Monsters
Check out their new free Toca Kitchen Monsters released on April 5th. We love all their apps. Even as adults, it is fun to give a buzz cut or give someone pink hair in the hair salon. We really love the store app where you can play with a friend and take turns being the customer or the store owner who chooses what to stock in the bins. Have fun and do some chores in the new Toca House app, too.
Easy DIY: Felt pen inks from Mini-eco
We liked this DIY from Mini-eco in the UK via child central station on how to give new life to old markers…
If you too are the owner of many a dried-up, squished-nib pen then worry not, simply chuck them in a pot of water overnight and make some really lovely liquid inks. (Use about 50ml of water for every felt pen).
