Supplies are easy, most of them you'll probably already have around the house. You'll need - Fabric - your choice of colors and prints. The amount you need depends on the size of the styrofoam balls you use and how thick you place the fabric. My mileage is between 1/4-1/2 yard per ball. I recommend starting with a 1/2 yard and see how much you have left and go from there.Rotary cutter mat, cutter and rulerSilver flathead pinsThimbleStyrofoam/Polystyrene Balls your choice of sizes (I used 2 and 3.25 inches) Start by cutting your fabric in 2 inch strips as shown above.
After you've cut the strips, cut each strip into 2 inch widths so you end up with 2x2inch squares You'll have a nice pretty stack of squares! Now, pull up a chair, put on a movie and let's get pinning! Now, you're going to learn how to fold the fabric squares. Next, fold the fabric in half again and hold it as shown above. Now, pin. Now, pin the second one. You continue doing this around and around and finish the first round. Not Just Paper and Glue: Pinterest Feature Friday #1 - WhipperBerry. Greetings, Pinners! Michele here to introduce our very first Pinterest Feature Friday or PFF, for short.

You can find Heather's Pinterest boards here. She currently has 34 boards and 1049 pins. And I love the various ways she has grouped her pins in her boards. By color And she has found some of the cutest things!

Our Homemade Playdough #recipe « Recipes « Marvelous Mommy. I’ve been wanting to make homemade playdough for awhile now and I finally did it!! I was surprised at how easy it was to make… Even for me! 1 cup flour1 cup warm water2 teaspoons cream of tarter1 teaspoon oil1/4 cup saltfood coloring Mix all of the ingredients (except food coloring) in a medium-sized saucepan.
Stir over medium heat until smooth. Stir continuously until the dough balls (about 1-2 minutes). Remove from heat. Once it’s cooled. Add food coloring. It’s a good idea to wear gloves or mix it in a bag so you don’t get any food coloring on you. Once it’s mixed, the color will not transfer onto your hands. Then have FUN!!

Money Gift Box. Gift Box This box made from two bills. The bills/box can be the gift itself, but it is also just about the right size for a ring box.
(Perhaps a dollar-bill ring?) Get yourself two fairly new, crisp bills. Lay the bill on a flat surface, face up. Fold the note top-to-bottom just to the right of the portrait, then unfold. Starting at the top left corner (as illustrated), close the top third fold to about 90 degrees. Inside this corner will be a remaining portion that you will crease along the natural 45 degree line to complete the corner.
Complete the previous step for the other three corners. For each tab, pull it inside the box, folding so that the natural edge of the box is pulled slightly over inside the fold. Do this evenly for both tabs. For the two other sides, evenly fold over the edge of the bill. You should now have an open box. If you make another piece just like the first, but slightly larger, you would have a lid similar to that found on most shoe boxes. Back. Packaging Templates.

DIY: Chiffon and Tulle&Flowers. How to Make Leaf Skeletons. I wanted to share with you a project from one of my readers who shares with us how to make leaf skeletons. I LOVE this! I have several leafs in various forms displayed in my home and knew I needed to make some of her leaf skeletons to add to my decor. I love how a pattern of leaves can enhance the beauty in your home.
So I asked Heather if she would mind sharing her project with you. I have spent hours and tried various ways of making these. You need washing soda, not baking soda! Gather your leaves. Washing soda is a strong base so you may want to wear gloves when handling the leaves. You will add 3/4 cup of washing soda and 4 cups of water to your pot of leaves. Keep going, you will need to add more water so your pan doesn’t dry out.
When 1.75 hours are up fill a glass baking dish with cool water. I carefully removed them and rinsed with water and added clean water to the pan. If you’re still with me, this is what I ended up with… I have a maple leaf which turned out not so well. DIY Sweat-sacoche diy – the Trendy Girl.

Words must be writted backwards in order to be readable. Shrinking the buttons: To shrink the buttons, you can use an oven or a heat gun (the kind used for embellishing).

By Michelle Vackar, Modern Handmade Child One of our favorite outside activities at our home is drawing with chalk on the driveway. You can play hopscotch, four-square, and of course draw and create silly stories. My daughters and I were talking one day as we played hopscotch about how to make chalk and I thought to myself, let’s try it!
It ended up being quite a lot of fun. What you will need: • Toilet paper or paper towel tubes • Scissors • Duct tape • Wax paper • Small bucket or disposable container to make the recipe • ¾ cup of warm water • 1 ½ cups Plaster of Paris • 2-3 tablespoons of tempera paint • Paper bag or a “mess mat” ** we made six tubes of chalk – we simply doubled the above recipe Step 1: If you are using paper towel tubes, cut each tube in half, so it is roughly the length of a toilet paper roll tube.
Step 2: Cover one end of each tube with duct table to hold the contents within. Step 3: Cut as many pieces of wax paper as you have tubes. Paper Fortune Cookie Favors | Flickr - Photo Sharing! - StumbleUpon.
