Portal 2 Warning Sign Coasters : Toys & Games. Washable, Non-staining Stage Blood by the Gallon. Cap Creations: {DIY} Mason Jar Soap Dispenser. I made this Mason Jar Soap Dispenser to use on my potting bench. I'm always needing to wash my hands after working in the garden and this sturdy jar should last me a lifetime of hand scrubbing. I think it would look just as great in a bath or kitchen and I thought some of you might want to make one too. Here's how to do it: Gather your supplies...old plastic soap bottle, mason jar, 2 part epoxy, drill, scissors and marker. A box cutter also came in handy in removing the top of the soap bottle. Cut off the top of the soap bottle leaving the screw threading intact. Mix the epoxy according to the package directions and apply to lower rim of bottle top. Lastly, insert the pump through the hole and screw tightly to secure.

Voila! Have Fun! Find all my DIYs here! Ice Cube Painting {Rainbows} This was something new for us, Rainbow Ice Cube Painting. I froze LIQUID WATERCOLORS (filled the trays with water first, then added watercolors & stirred) overnight. I knew it was going to be a hot day so the plan was to do this activity outside. I’ve seen this activity done plenty on paper but I wanted to try fabric. {If anyone offers you fabric of any kind for your child care or preschool, TAKE IT! I had a huge donation a couple years ago and I’ve used a lot of it for various activities.} Even though it was hot, it took a while for the ice to melt, allowing lots of time to play with the ice. What I didn’t expect is the kids to play with the cubes making things like this: It soon turned to hoarding & stockpiling….a little arguing besides… All the while the cubes were melting on the fabric leaving pretty colors.
Then we hung it up on the clothesline to dry. It’s beautiful! Whoops, I didn’t realize it wasn’t cut straight on the end… I thought this was an amazingly fun activity! Giant "wooden block stacking game" tower. Repurposed Hardcover Book to Notebook Tutorial. I’ve told you before I’m a bit obsessed with books. I love all books where I intend to read them or not. A local library has a huge book sale every year where you can pick up a grocery bag of books for $3! So at the last sale I picked up a big stack of hard cover books to be repurposed. Don’t worry, I’m not destroying literary classics, and I use all parts of the book so nothing is wasted. Today we are just working with the outside hard cover to create this new notebook. What you need-Hardcover bookPaperDecorative paperSmall bit of ribbonPaper cutterWhite glueHot gluePadding compound (optional)Clamps or bulldog clipsFirst you need to cut the pages out of your book so your just left with the cover.

I'm really happy with how my shirt came out. I just love using this dying technique, it's so exciting because you never know how it's going to come out. This was my first attempt. So far I've been pleasantly surprised. Here's what you'll need to make your own: >>>A t-shirt made of %100 percent natural fibers, this can be cotton, linen, silk, rayon, bamboo, etc. >>>Salt, I used about 1/2 cup for this shirt. >>>Powdered or liquid dye. >>>Rubber bands. With my scarf, I created stripes, so this time I wanted to make a sunburst design, so I pinched the middle of the shirt and tied a rubber band. Continue to secure rubber bands along the shirt, until the last one is wrapped around the sleeves and the bottom hem of the shirt.
Prepare your dye bath according to instructions. Bring a large pot of water and the salt to simmer, then add the dye and stir. Remove the shirt from the bath and immediately run it under cold water to set the dye. Happy crafting! 31 Insanely Easy And Clever DIY Projects. Candles in Seashells -- Martha Stewart Crafts.
