Hello U-Create readers! I am so excited to be guest posting here today. It just so happens to be my first guest post and I'm still a little shocked that it's here at Ucreate, one of my favorite blogs! A little bit about me.. I'm from a little town called Keller, Texas. I'm a junior at Texas A&M University (whoop!). I'm working on my education degree and expect to be an elementary school teacher in just two short years.
When I'm not busy studying for classes, I love to sew. I just started blogging in May and have already met all kinds of wonderful women, I hope you'll stop by and say hi too! Watermark Tee Tutorial What I love about this project is that it's completely customizable. Materials: Elmer's Blue Gel Glue (it must be the blue gel, white won't work) Fabric Dye (RIT is my tried and true brand) A white cotton Tee, Tank, Dress etc. Tutorial: If you're unfamiliar with Batiking, it's a method of dyeing fabric in which you create a design with a dye- resist. Step 1: Prepare Step 2: Design. Recycle pizza boxes into wall art. Art for pizza lovers! BTW our pizza is delivered with a wax paper insert on the bottom of the box, so the boxes were clean.
I wouldn't recommend using pizza boxes with food stains! I already had this idea in mind, but was going to use polystyrene blocks. But why buy polystyrene when I can recycle pizza boxes and create art for my home, and for the kids' rooms as well. ABOVE: Use larger pizza boxes to make unique art for a child's bedroom. These boxes are covered with polka dot wrapping paper that is available in a variety of bold and pastel colours.
ABOVE: The humble pizza box becomes eye-catching art for a home. You will need: Pizza boxes - small, medium or large Wallpaper, wrapping paper or fabric Bostik spray adhesive Ruler Craft or utility knife Scissors Double-sided tape to mount onto wall Here's how: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Originally posted in 2007, it seems that Pizza Box art is now becoming quite popular. . [ via ] [ via ] [ via ] [ via ] [ via ] [ via ] [ via ] [ via ] Projects. Other Projects I Have In Mind To Tackle: I want to make a machine that paints pictures - either a big paint plotter, or something that works as (some kind of) robotic analogue of the human arm. Wind turbine - I want to see if it can be done on next to no budget.
Parabolic mirror array (or some kind of mirror suitable for solar experiments, including cooking) Rudder autopilot for the boat - I think I actually have all the parts for this; I've got microcontrollers, servo motors, an electronic compass module... Something that makes use of the glue lamination techniques I learned when I made the boat - maybe a rocking chair, maybe a sledge...
I don't know, but something curvy. A MAME arcade cabinet Something that makes use of wooden gears Some kind of musical automaton - maybe an automatic xylophone A Backpack Tubulum - that is, a musical instrument as used by the Blue Man Group - one of these: An underwater webcam, or maybe a remote-controlled underwater vehicle, with a camera built in. Alas! Recycled Paper Butterflies. Materials Colourful ad pages out of magazines work well for these butterflies - alternatively, patterned wrapping paper could be used, or plain paper with hand-coloured designs or markings. If you're making a large number of butterflies, it's probably most efficient to batch up the production so you make all the wings, then all the bodies, etc, then just assemble the parts. This is a great rainy-day craft and although it's quite easy, the results can be dazzling. Credit for this page goes primarily to my Mum, who showed me how to make these when I visited her in Spain in April 2011 (you may have noticed that the magazine page I used isn't from England).
These colourful paper butterflies are great for brightening up a dull wall, or pinning on a gift - they're easy to make, using any colourful paper - even an ad page from a magazine. Materials You'll need: If you're going to make more than one of these, it's worth making card templates for the main pieces - so you'll need to make: Khan Academy. Arts And Crafts Photo Gallery.

Simple Paper Flowers. How to bind your own Hardback Book.
The art of book binding is an ancient craft, but actually it is not very difficult to do and with almost no practice you can get really awesome results. If you are on the lookout for fun craft projects or quick ways of making nice presents and gifts, then this could be the project for you. I know that there are other Instructables on the art of book binding but this project is meant to be a simple quick project that will give a very acceptable finish, and a book that looks like it has been professionally made, yet without the need for any special equipment.
All you will need is: Some paper Minimum really is about 32 A4 or US Letter sized sheets, to make a half A4 (half US Letter sized book), although smaller books can be made as can ones with more pages. You can use tracing paper, thick or thin paper and of course colored or even preprinted or written on paper. Some stiff cardboard or corrugated (fluted) cardboard Some fabric or leather Any old stuff will do for the cover.
