Let Funny Holidays & Random Celebrations Spark Your Next DIY Theme
OUT OF IDEAS? LOOKING FOR INSPIRATION FOR YOUR NEXT CREATIVE PROJECT?
Such life is, there is something worth celebrating every day.
But actually there is, really is!
I knew for years that there was a day, World Laughter Day dedicated for celebrating laughter, history of this celebration goes back all the way to 1998 and the purpose of this day was to make a significant effort raising awareness about laughter, and about its healing benefits. Laughing is good for sure and we all know it is contagious, a warm smile is a shortest bridge and a bond between two people.
However, I just recently discovered how the Fun Calendar is absolutely jam - packed with all sorts that made me giggle. It is handy to keep yourself in the loop with Fun Celebrations so you won’t miss out on important moments, is one of the essence of the way to spice life up.
BE AN AMBASSADOR OF NATIONAL DAYS
There are many Fun National Days could be a great source of inspiration for your next project of any kind, be it crafting, sewing, decorating.
Personally, I think it is perfect for any chronic DIY-er to scroll through the 2021 calendar and pencil in the big dates!
The Fun National Day Calendar makes sure there isn’t absolutely anything left out to be celebrated for, which I believe promotes the theory to look at each day as a gift rather than taking it for granted and to be grateful for things that money can’t buy!
We don’t need to look for a reason to throw a party and cheer for little things in life, be it in your kitchen or at a party there is always a quirky, fun-filled opportunity to stir up a non-alcoholic lavender frizzy -spritz pop, or to decorate your home office or just to spice up the dull afternoon when mundane sneaks back to weekday routines.
MAKE THAT DAY COUNT
For example, you can invigorate your surroundings by sewing a donut shaped purse for National Donut Day or making a donut cushions and enhance your home decor appropriately.
Putting in creative efforts you are not letting that day pass by without making memories and cheering the day in the utmost style, meanwhile having a good time in the creative DIY preparation process as well.
Here, I would like to share a couple of sewing, home decor, fashion DIY ideas that could be tied into a few of my favourite Fun National Days. Including but not limited to - here they come.
