Project UK - make felt from pets by Camilla Stacey It feels like I’ve been crafty all my life- from a childhood spent watching my Dad making pots, and my Mum learning to spin, through to art school and my latest incarnation as a curator and maker. It’s not always been a smooth ride- after art school I refused to have anything to do with the ‘creative’ world for years, and it was only when I took part in Ladyfest Bristol in 2003 that I was willing to connect with the arty side of me again.

Over the last two years I have been rediscovering and reclaiming crafts and am slowly rediscovering and reclaiming myself and what makes me happy. Made by Milla is my current creative outlet. Inspired by ideas of feminism, domesticity, and re-valuing traditional crafts, I make aprons, brooches, cushions and clothing for girls that are ‘lumpy, not frumpy’.

Project UK is a new column all about some of the more unusual crafty projects I’ve been experimenting with over here in the UK. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. How to Make Marshmallow Fondant. This time I decided to make it with those mini fruit flavored marshmallows. I had to sort them by colour first. I figured they would add a little bit of flavor to the fondant so I wouldn't have to add much flavoring oil. I use gel colours to dye my fondant but regular food colouring will work too. You won't be able to get really dark colours without making your fondant sticky, but for lighter colours you can just even it out with more icing sugar. I also had lemon oil and coconut flavoring on hand.. oh la la the value brand (which still works fine).

Step One: Take a couple of handfuls of marshmallows and put them in a microwave safe bowl. I like to make smaller batches because its easier to add the colour to the melted marshmallow than it is to work the colour into the fondant later. Step Two: Stick the marshmallows in the microwave for ten seconds at a time until the are puffed up and easily stir into a goo with a wooden spoon. Step Three: Step Four: Fondant with the icing sugar kneaded in. A PC from the community for the community - Open-PC.com. Make Designer Tara St. James' Recycled Zipper Bracelet (DIY Tutorial) Share on Tumblr Email A discarded or broken zipper, at least 15 inches long (the longer the zipper, the wider the cuff) Thread to match A long-ish needle Measuring tape Scissors Pin (optional) Measure your hand at the widest point with your thumb loosely tucked into your palm. Mark out that measurement along one end of the zipper with a pin.

Wind the zipper around itself by lining up the marked pin point with the end of the zipper. Start stitching at the end of the zipper with ¼-inch long stitches. Keep stitching all the way to the other end, keeping your stitches neat as they will be visible. I find it easiest to sew with the zipper winding in a counter-clockwise rotation, but do what’s comfortable for you. Repeat steps 1-5 with the other side of the zipper.

Place one piece over the other, with the tape ends overlapping. Stitch both zippers together along the top of tape’s loose end. Voila! + Tara St. Ice Cream Bread -- ka-POW! Chocolate Covered Squid - Valentine's Day Candy From the Sea. Covering squid in chocolate is actually pretty easy and quick. The Squid Instructables gourmet chef and experimentor Canida let me use some extra squid she happened to have. You can buy squid at some super markets and at most fish stores. Squid are cheap, so these one of a kind chocolates won't cost a bundle unlike some other "seafood" chocolates out there on the market. Each chocolate is made from the tentacles of one squid.

I took my squid bits and threw them into some boiling water for a minute or two. The Chocolate I made my chocolate sauce by melting half a chocolate bar spiced with chili together with about a tablespoon of butter. Put the chocolate mixture into the microwave and cook it in 15 second bursts, stirring in between, until the butter and the chocolate are melted. The Paws and Effect Boutique: Home: Zazzle.com Store. Ten Awesome Free-to-Play Online Games - PCWorld. Chocolate Cupcakes with Flaming Strawberries. Call me easily amused, but these little torch-topped cupcakes delight me. Besides being a cute novelty item for a party, I think they would add a little drama to the end of a romantic meal.

I've been looking for something different to serve for Valentine's dessert, and this is definitely different. The strawberries are hollowed out and filled with a bit of liquor, then ignited with a match. For the cake portion, I chose a One Bowl Chocolate Cupcake recipe because 1. it's quick 2. it is easy, and 3. it fits my prerequisite for a light ending on date night.

I should say, a light ending provided you don't eat too many. Which is really, really easy to do. The cakes are just sweet enough, and have a light, fluffy crumb - the perfect vehicle for rich chocolate buttercream. Notes for flaming strawberries:Any alcohol below 80 proof will not ignite well.

Toothpicks with taste. - OCCASIONS AND HOLIDAYS. These are super easy and have been a hit so far. All you need is some wooden toothpicks and a small bottle or jar and flavor oil.I used natural flavor oils that I bought at the local bulk food store.

I tried Anise, Lemon, spearmint, cinnamon (which may not be natural?) And peppermint all were yummy. So in a glass jar..spice jars work well...pour approximately 1/8 -1/4 inch of oil. Stand toothpicks in jar so only one end is in the oil. Allow the oil to be soaked up by the picks. Remove from jars and lay on non absorbent surface ie cookie tray. **If impatient like me..place toothpicks in 250f oven for approx. 5 mins. I call mine Toothpicks with taste.

Japanese IQ Test. Write Your Name in Elvish in Ten Minutes. Write Your Name in Elvish in Ten Minutes You want to write your name in Elvish, but every place you go seems to make it harder than it ought to be. Elvish writing looks beautiful and mysterious, but does it really have to be impossible to understand? Why doesn't somebody just spell out the alphabet so you can simply substitute the letters and get straight to the result?

That's exactly what I've done here. Learn to write your name in Elvish in ten minutes. Here's the alphabet. That's it. Generally the vowels go above the consonants, but sometimes, in the case of Y and silent E, they go below. The straight line underneath is just one way to make one character do the work of two. The line above a consonant means that a nasal N or M precedes the consonant in question. Here's one last example with two different letter combinations.

I am often asked how to handle double vowel situations. That's all you need to get started. Good luck! Ned Gulley Want an Elvish tattoo? Want an Elvish t-shirt?

12 Ubuntu Derivatives You Should Consider - PCWorld Business Center. It's no secret that Ubuntu 10.10, or Maverick Meerkat, is one of the most user-friendly Linux distributions of all time for business and home users. What many people don't realize, however, is that there are several other Linux distributions out there that are also based on Ubuntu and offer many of the same advantages. Some are focused on a specific niche; others are simply variations on the same general theme. If you're already a fan of Ubuntu or simply want to experience what the excitement is all about, consider the following alternatives for what just may be an even more perfect match with your business's needs. For Linux Beginners: Linux Mint and Pinguy OS With version 10, or "Julia," hot off the presses, Linux Mint is the third most popular Linux distribution out there, behind only Ubuntu itself and Fedora.

Though less well-known, Pinguy is also another very nice Ubuntu-based distribution for Linux beginners. Similar to Windows: Zorin OS For Cloud-Based Netbooks: Jolicloud.

You know what you need? Geeky cocktail recipes. There are a million reasons! Maybe you’ll have your friends over to watch the Doctor Who Christmas special, whenever the BBC decides to air it. Maybe it’s getting close to convention time in your neck of the woods and you want your after-hours hotel room revelry to be fully on theme. I may not be much of an experienced bartender, but I am a dedicated experimenter, and I’ve spent a good deal of time developing three yummy cocktails that could totally pass for legit in any bar. A Screwdriver is already a drink. Two doctors, two screwdrivers, two delicious, pretty little cocktails. Both Sonic Screwdrivers lend themselves to mixing by the pitcher, although you’ll need to be clever about the ice since you won’t be shaking anything.

And that brings us to the pan-galactic gargle blaster, which you should absolutely never make an entire pitcher of under any circumstances. Let’s take a closer look at that glitter. Cake Pops.
