by @calendulacraft which inspired us for this month's theme. You should definitely watch it to get inspired and enjoy the calming mood. We doubt that someone of you will build a house from natural materials in only a month but maybe it can inspire you to go out and search for materials in nature 🌳

And now before we go into this beautiful new theme, let’s check the results of our Recycling DIY contest from June!

🌿 This Month's Theme: Natural Materials DIY

Let’s go back to basics! This July, we invite you to create DIYs using mostly natural things like wood, stone, leaves, clay, dried plants, seeds, shells, and so on. It can be functional, artistic, or even both: just show us your love and respect for the natural world.




We are searching for DIYs with unprocessed main materials:

• no paper
• no plastic
• no metal
• no fabric
• no glass

Go out in nature and search for the base for your next DIY. We are looking forward to seeing your creative use of raw natural materials! You will earn bonus points if your creation is not only decorative but functional :)
