Frosted glass jar + a winner

Maria Romvari , a former guest nester , returns for another tutorial! I mentioned glass etching in another post recently, and it reminded of these instructions that Maria sent me a while ago. This is the frosted glass spray paint method. You could also use etching cream for longer-lasting and more durable results. Maria’s process varies from mine because I’ve only used flat surfaces . Her jar turned out beautifully.

http://www.julieannart.com/2011/09/tutorials-for-recycling-t-shirts.html So way way back, in June, I wrote this Studio Organization post, about starting the process of organizing my studio by cleaning out the closet full of junk. Well, it's September and...let's just say the closet is a work in progress. Some of the things that are taking up space in the closet are shirts that I never wear anymore. I realized I could repurpose them into something else! Here are some tutorials for recycling shirts:

If you don't want to shell out for a portable speaker stand for your phone or other MP3 player, Etsy user Lowell takes advantage of physics to make a cheap, wooden block act as an iPhone speaker. We already know you can amplify the sound from tiny speakers with household items— whether it's a bowl , some paper cups , or a drinking glass —but if you want a better solution that doesn't cost as much as a portable speaker (or run on electricity), you can hollow out a few sides of a wooden block, create a slot for your device, and play music through your device's speakers. It should be well amplified through the wood. http://lifehacker.com/5859902/craft-a-cheap-smartphone-speaker-stand-from-a-block-of-wood

V and Co how to: jersey knit bracelet - StumbleUpon

i don't know what it is about this time of year that makes me just want to have my bare feet in the sand, be watching the sun setting into the ocean, and breathing in the warm salty air of the beach... as i get older, more and more i find myself missing that place i used to go to almost every.single.day. as a teen. (my skin doesn't miss it. as a matter of fact, i now wish i listened more and DID put SPF on my face...hindsight is 20/20). my mom calls me from her walk on the beach almost every morning... *sigh* yeah, i get a little homesick around this time of the year. heck on my pinterest my "dreaming of summer" has the most pictures in it. ah yes. i miss my ocean. case in point. this bracelet, brought a flood of memories, not because i used to have one like it but because i can totally see me wearing it by the beach, not caring that it's gotten salty and wet, because i can totally make another one in like less than 5 minutes flat when i get home.

Nice Home Garden Patio & Wood Path Design Idea | Designs &Ideas on ...

Landscaping sounds complex to those of us not gifted with green thumbs – but making paths, patios or decks to define space in a garden or yard can be as simple as slicing sections of wood and infilling the gaps with sand. Sure, you have to cut or buy the log slices but at least you do not need to grow anything in the process. Katy Elliott spotted these at a flower show but they would make a great do-it-yourself garden project. Arranged in groups they can make broader outdoor patio surfaces and define gathering spaces while creating an array makes for an easy stepping-stone style path through existing greenery.
