How To Turn A Beer Bottle Into A Glass

http://www.instructables.com/id/Cardboard-Ball-Chair/ The most important part of this project is the jig. This large but relatively simple jig makes a perfectly shaped, hollow, half-sphere . The horizontal turntable and outer cutting arm cut the outside. The inner cutting arm cuts the inside surface, the hollow area of the sphere. Be aware that this jig needs to sit on a sturdy table or sawhorses. The pieces it makes are heavy so pick a place for it carefully.

Bulletin Board

In an attempt to organize my thoughts and of course, my odds and ends, I created this bulletin board using recycled and vintage materials, that has a special pocket too. Its cork, so you can stick things right to it quick and easy. http://papernstitchblog.com/2010/02/09/vintage-bulletin-board-tutorial/
http://laurathoughts81.blogspot.com/2011/03/make-up-magnet-board.html We all know with craft blogs that original ideas are often hard to come by, we find ideas we love and make them our own but we didn't come up with the idea ourselves. I feel like I've finally done something original here and I'm excited about it. I'll show you the finished product and then explain. Behold my Make-up Magnet Board . I have a friend who is beautiful and stylish and has always loved make-up but recently took a course that intensified her love. Her renewed interest has worn off on me and it made me remember eye shadows I'd hidden away that were gathering dust.

Holder for Charging Cell Phone

My husband and I both have cell phones. And both of us have phone chargers. And that means lots of obnoxious cords.
