Inspiring DIY. Hair tutorials. After many requests, I finally made a tutorial on how to tie a simple head scarf. It's really, really easy. I did this without looking in the mirror, so that should tell you how easy it is. Let's get started! Start with a large, square scarf. I like my vintage silk scarves because they're soft and not bulky. Fold one corner to the other to form a triangle. Fold the corner down to about the middle, and then fold over again (but not all the way to the edge, because you want it to be a little thicker). Put the scarf around your head with the ends in the front, making sure the wrong side of the scarf (the part where you can see the folds) is against your head. Tie it in a loose knot at the front. Tuck the ends behind/underneath the scarf. Done! One Pretty Thing - DIY craft tutorials. Castle in sky. Make a Lunch Box from a Milk Jug.

Play with your food: Edible Origami. Crane croutons for your salad. Crispy wonton wrappers add cheerful crunch to an asian salad, but shouldn’t they be… more interesting? Presented here is the ideal upgrade. No more must you clutter your salad with amorphous crispies or chow mein noodles to obtain the requisite crunch: Crane Croutons will be your piece de resistance. Wonton dough is strong, flexible, and comes in a nearly square form. If it is not square enough for your taste (you perfectionist, you!) After we got excited about this idea, we checked to see if it had been done before. We recommend making a crane with paper before you try with wonton wrappers. A couple of things to keep in mind as you are folding: If you fold paper back and forth enough times, it will break; the same is true for wonton wrappers, only more so. Here is a supply of origami paper/wonton wrappers/embryonic crane croutons. Fold the square in half to form a rectangle.

Draw one corner toward the other to make a diagonal fold from corner to center. Turn over and repeat. Anu's Bhapa Doi Recipe.
