How To Host Your Own Crafty Girls Night!


Whether its a cozy night in with wine and snacks or a full-on craft party, here’s your step by step guide to making it a night to remember!

Step 1: Pick your craft

Every great girls night needs a fun project, and the shadow box kits are sure to be the perfect project for a hands on, mess free craft that looks gorgeous when finished! Choose a theme that fits your vibe!

Step 2: Invite the Girls!

A girls night is ALL about the right crew- so text your besties, drop a cute invite to the group chat, or go all out with custom canvas e-vites!

What to include in the invites:

    • Date & Time
    • Theme (DIY & Sip? PJ’s & Painting)
    • What to bring (snacks or drinks?)

Fun Idea: Give the night a name like: “Crafternoon with the girls” or “Painting & Prosecco”

Step 3: Get Crafty! (No experience needed!)

Now for the fun part- Crafting! Hand out the DIY Kits, turn on a fun playlist, and get painting!

Tips to guide the craft:

  • Pick your colour palette- Soft pastels? Moody darks? Metallic accents?
  • Start painting the layers- Blend sponge, or brush-your masterpiece, your rules!
  • Let the pieces dry while you snack and chat!
  • Assemble your shadow box masterpiece

Step 4: Show off and Share the Love!

Time for the final reveal! Once your shadow box are complete:

  • Take a group pic with your finished pieces
  • Tag @ourlittlemakery on instagram or facebook with #diygirlsnight for a chance to be featured!
  • Vote for “Best in show”- Most creative? Most Extra?- Let the group decide!
  • Fun Extra: Hand out DIY Awards

Ready to host!? Let’s make it happen!
