Moments of Wonder and Ponder

  Assalamualykum! In this post, we have combined 4 DIY crafts we made throughout the weekends.  1. Customizing a birdhouse This birdhouse was bought from a clay shop, it was super adorable the way it was but we noticed a door-like shape on each side so, in order to make it a bit more interesting, we turned it into a house-vase! Before :  After :  We added a border out of foam for the window and door in order that they would have a                                                                       three-dimensional look.
