And happy thursday. today i am sharing with you a license plate home decor item. i'm really excited about it. i have been saving this tutorial for awhile waiting til finals were over so i could cover all the details. with the hubby and i moving from utah to idaho and back to utah PLUS buying a new car in the mix, we had a LOT of license plates. i thought i really needed to put them to use. so, a while ago, i went to my pop's house with an idea in mind that he helped me create. here is the finished product: it really was so simple to make.

& with the help of dad i was able to get it done super quickly. you will need some old license plates. don't be afraid to mix numbers in for letters or turn a W upside down to make an M. i used a number 1 to make an "L" and a 3 upside down to make an "E" turned out pretty cute!

Bon bref, j'ai des collants et leggings qui étaient prêts à partir à la poub, mais comme toujours avant de jeter je réfléchis et me pose la question... puis-je recycler? Hihi ça peut durer un instant.

(Hearts Afire, 12" x 12", hand-carved stamps on heavy watercolor paper, 2007) (This tutorial can also be purchased as an e-book from both Amazon.com and Barnes and Nobel.) Every artist needs primary source material. Primary source material is original images, sketches, drawings and photographs that the artist herself has generated without the aid of any outside sources.

Crayon Roll. I have been looking for a crayon roll/holder tutorial but can’t seem to find one. I have found plenty of these little holders for sale but no directions. So here is my version. And if anyone finds/has other instructions, let me know and we can link them. **These instructions were created for my daughter’s long erasable crayons that are almost twice as long as a standard crayon.

You’ll Need: 2 pieces of fabric – 14 x 21 and 8 x 21 (inches)1 piece of ribbon – 20 inches long, give or take.Matching thread **All seams are to be made at 1/2 inch. First, cut out your pieces of fabric… And then fold them in half, lengthwise. Then on the smaller piece of fabric, make a seam right along the fold, close to the edge. Then open up the larger piece of fabric and lay the smaller one on top, matching the two raw edges of the smaller one with the one raw edge of the bigger piece. Sew along all 3 sides (not the fold) leaving a 4 inch gap at the bottom, so that you can turn it right side out.

You can find the how-to instructions on this website: Cut Out and Keep. These R2-D2 inspired shoes are actually painted by nerdporn on Etsy.com!
