DIY Fire & Ice Lanterns

The old becomes new: A new variation on the outdoor lantern. We have had an unusually warm winter in Michigan this year, and while the temps have been nice, I have had to hold off on this project idea until we got a cold snap. http://www.madincrafts.com/2012/02/diy-fire-ice-lanterns.html

http://honestlywtf.com/diy/diy-macrame-bracelet/ Growing up by the beach in Southern California, the ability to knot a macrame bracelet was practically a right of passage. Although those days are long behind us, we’ve never forgotten the ever-so-simple square knot technique. This time, however, we’re replacing hemp and wooden beads for more updated elements like colorful nylon cord and glossy metal charms.

Stab Bound Journal

Make a hand bound journal with elaborate side stitching for yourself or as a gift. The stitching is a lot easier than it looks and is so much nicer to hold than a spiral bound edge. Supplies and Equipment - sharp utility knife and cutting surface BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THE SHARP BLADE - rulers - drill with 1/16th inch bit OR a small paper punch BE VERY CAREFUL WITH POWER TOOLS - fancy cover paper - I used Cavallini Vintage Tickets Wrapping Paper - 20" x 28"

<img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/manmadediy-uploads-production/photos/3235/typeo-feature.jpg" alt="created at: 12/07/2010" width="496"/> This year, I vowed to only make or buy handmade holiday gifts for my friends and family, and I've kept to it so far.
