Diwali - the festival of lights is always celebrated by lighting diyas around the home to celebrate the victory of Dharma over Dharma, light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. I personally love lighting the traditional oil lamp, but due to carpet/wood floors, fear of children knocking and spilling the oil, children touching the lit diya, etc. I always prefer LED candle for decorating around the house. Nowadays there are lot of different LED options like water activated diyas, floating candles, etc. I like to use different varieties at various locations around the house, and I am going to share them with you all.

How to make birthday banner using felt - DIY butterfly birthday banner
Let's create a colorful butterfly birthday banner using felt in the Xtool M1 Ultra. It is incredibly easy to do, and I will share with you the step-by-step process. I created this beautiful butterfly banner for my daughter's first birthday, inspired by the book Peekaboo Numbers. I have been following a tradition for my elder one that I do a themed banner along with a number balloon for their age each year for their birthday. I am trying to follow the same for my daughter. We don't do big parties, so these are some simple things that I do to make their birthdays memorable.
