this little printer is an actual cheat code for gifts 🖨️

my daughter and her friends are heading off on a summer trip and I wanted to give them something really special — so I used my @inkwonprint to decorate these cute lockers and make everything for them.

stickers for the inside, printed photos for a custom gift tag and a magnetic frame on the front, custom best friend tattoos and a heat transfer for cute new cosmetics bags — four things. one tiny printer.

I had so much fun with this one — it does so much more than I expected.

Here are all the gift details and the printer it's currently on Kickstarter (it’s on until Sunday at 43% off ) here https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/inkwonprinting/inkwon-tag-worlds-1st-4-in-1-pocket-color-inkjet-printer

Some moments deserve to be kept forever. 🎓

Harrison's graduation day is done — and I wasn't ready for any of it to just disappear. So I made him a memory keepsake. His cap, his diploma, his medal, his tassel, his cord, his photo — everything from his day, preserved together in one place.
His name, his year, his school on the outside — making it completely his. And of course the Cardinal had to be on there too.
Once a Cardinal, always a Cardinal. 🎓

if your kid is obsessed with Toy Story right now, this one's for you 🤠

Dollar Tree jar filled with yellow candy, a bandana necktie, Woody hat and a sheriff badge on the front — DIY and so easy to put together!

…and if Woody isn't their character — I've also got Lightning McQueen, Minions, Barbie and Harry Potter versions on the blog 🎉

I cut open a soccer ball and turned it into a party vase ⚽✂️

trace your vase onto the ball and cut about ¼ inch wider — this gives you room to push the vase in cleanly. if the ball loses a little air once cut, stuff a napkin inside to keep it full and round.
add flowers, push sticks into mini soccer balls to make picks for the florals, tuck in some world flags and suddenly you have the most unique centerpiece for your FIFA watch party or soccer birthday.

save this for your next soccer party 🌸⚽

pro tip — drop small weights into the cup before the flowers go in. keeps everything balanced and upright.

A graduation gift they'll actually remember. 🎓

A plain vase, some foam core and black cardstock — and suddenly you have a DIY grad cap filled with everything they love.

Florals, their tassel, grad balloons, photos and gift cards all in one.
The trick? Floral picks. They let you tuck photos and gift cards straight into any floral arrangement — game changer for gifting season.

I got everything from Michaels — even the mini grad photo frames & gift card envelopes.

this might be the coolest thing I've ever done with our basement ⚽

our usual hangout spot just became match day headquarters.

GOAL balloons, flags of the world, favor boxes, soccer balls and Twizzler red cards (the only ones allowed at this party!)

one tip — layer grass mats, tablecovers and tablecloths on every surface. suddenly the whole room feels like a soccer pitch.

save this for watching the next big soccer match 🏆

this is what I do with my arch frames instead of buying a new cover
bulletin board paper over the white sleeves, stapled to the back where it can't be seen. then I just painted — I matched the patterns from my tableware but you can go absolutely crazy with it!
two completely custom backdrop arches for the price of a roll of paper and whatever paint I already had.
the white covers stay on underneath so the paper isn't see through and your colours stay true.
save this if you have arches in storage — or if you've been thinking about buying them but weren't sure they were worth it 🎨 so worth it. #ltkparty

this is the most beautiful thing I've ever made for a party 🌸

a metal arch, grid panels, zip ties, and a bunch of faux florals — genuinely that's all this is. the trick is weaving the stems through the grid so they lock in and won't fall out. no complicated rigging, no special skills.
*I used the 3ft by 5ft arch for this one

#LTKMothersDay #LTKWedding #LTKSeasonal

I put our wedding photo in this frame and genuinely couldn’t stop staring at it 🤍

a plain wooden frame, a bag of pearls, gemstone brooches, and some flatback charms are all you need! And your trusty hot glue gun. the whole thing cost less than $20 and it looks like something you’d find in a boutique for $150.
it works for any photo that means something to you — wedding, engagement, graduation, a picture of your best friends from ten years ago that deserves better than a basic black frame.

you can make it completely your own depending on your space and your style — all pearl, mixed metals, full gold, whatever feels right.
save this one for later 🤍 #ltkgift

She is going to love this so much. 🧺

A plain picnic basket, a monogram stencil, and a little chalk paint — suddenly you have a personalized gift that looks like it came from a boutique.

Pro tip: tape underneath the letter cuts too, not just around the edges. Totally game-changing for clean results on rattan.

I filled it with bubbly, napkins, insulated glasses, and then tied on a picnic blanket and florals — everything from Michaels. Done and done.
If the mom in your life loves a picnic, this one's for her.

Bridgerton is back… so I made the ultimate fan gift for book and series lovers 👑📚
If you’re a Regency romance lover — the gowns, the longing glances, the scandal — this one’s for you

I started with a Pride & Prejudice book box and filled it with all the literary essentials:
✨ bookmarks
✨ notecards
✨ reading logs
✨ stickers & Post-it notes
✨ pens + bookish extras

Then I closed it up and tied it with lace and a gold + pearl brooch for that heirloom, corset-core finish
It feels like something Lady Whistledown herself would deliver. 💌

Perfect for a Bridgerton watch party hostess, your book club bestie, or your favorite romance reader.
