Scrols for jars

Do you sometimes get so bored that you start planning your itinerary? I do that. But sometimes I get so so bored that I plan for the things I should do when I get bored. So I made these scrols and put them in a jar.

These are one of the easiest things I have ever made. All you need is:

• Colourful papers(preferably chart paper or card stock)
• Scissors and marker, glitter pens 
• Paper cutter
• Small ribbon or thick thread 
• Jar

The steps to make these beautiful scrols are:

1. Plan the things you want to write about in your scrols. Make it short and sweet.
2. Take your colourful sheets and start writing your thoughts in them like this. 
   
3. Make sure that you leave some gap between two scrols.
4. Beautifully adorn your scrols.
5. Using a paper cutter or scissors, cut your scrols from the paper.
6. Roll your scrols and add the ribbon on them.
   
7. Put them in a jar.

Pinwheel envelope

It's not exactly a pinwheel envelope but it resembles one.
It's very easy to make requiring the least resources.
All you need is:

1. Paper (which sheet you want to use to make your envelope)
2. Ribbon (matching colour)
3. Compass and pencil and required stationery
4. Scissors and fevicol

Steps to make this DIY aare:

1. Take the sheet. Fixing the compass at a required radius make four circles. Make sure that the circles are of same radius.          
   
2. Fold the circles into half as shown above. Plac the circles in a such a way that one is above the other and the folded lines meet. The picture might illustrate better.                   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
3. Glue the edges of the ones in the above level. 
   
4. Place the other side of the folds in the same manner- one above another. 
   
5. On the back side of the envelope, add a small portion of glue and stick your ribbon.
6. Tie your ribbon in a desired manner. 
   

You can insert a sheet or a relatively flat present inside.

This makes a perfect gift. I gifted this to my friend on his countdown.

Jelly cake

Do you love cooking?
Fond of raspberry?
Give this one a shot!

It a raspberry jelly cake with a chocolate base. It is supposed to be served with vanilla custard.
For the jelly:
You can get a ready made pack for the jelly. Follow the instructions properly. And get such a setting.

For the custard: again you can get a ready made custard powder from the market. Just follow the instructions and set it to cool.

For the chocolate base:
You will need a dark chocolate compound.
Steps to follow are:
1. Take an aluminium sheet and spread oil on it.
2. Take your dark chocolate, cut it into pieces of required quantity and put it in a microwave safe bowl.
3. Heat it in the microwave for 30 seconds. Take it out. Stir it. Put it in the microwave again for 30 seconds. Do this until you get a smooth layer.
Note: Don't burn the chocolate. For me, 2 rounds were enough to get a smooth layer.
4. Taking a spoon spread the chocolate on the foil. Allow it to settle. Again spread some more chocolate. Do this until you get a thick layer of chocolate like this.

5. Refrigerate the chocolate for atleast an hour. In the mean time, you can prepare the jelly and custard. Do NOT refrigerate the jelly.
6. Take out your chocolate. Very slowly pull out the sheet from it. Put the base on a plate.
7. Take the jelly which has settled down. Put it on the base and turn it upside down to get the look.
8. Add a few chocolate toppers and serve it with custard.
