Materijal i pribor: - razne vrste prirodnog papira (rižin, s prešanim lišćem) - ukrasni transparentni papir s motivom nota ili anđela - rebrasti karton - drvene perle - sitni ukrasi poput praporaca, paketića, zvjezdica i sl. - zlatna kontura za staklo ili svilu - vunica ili špaga Postupak: 1 Na papiru nactajte motiv lista (ili čizmice, kućice i sl.). Bitno je da je isti motiv iz različitog papira. Prenesite ga pa izrežite, a na dno svakog listića izbušite rupicu.You might want to make your own soap because you want to avoid some of the common chemical ingredients in store-bought soap, or because it saves money, or just for the fun of mixing your own scents and molding them into decorative shapes. Making soap from scratch isn’t a simple process, and you will need to be careful with the lye – make sure you understand what the dangers are and how to avoid them before you start. Or you can make things much simpler and “rebatch” your own soap , using another soap (like Ivory, which already has the lye) as a base.

Sea Salt Spray for Hair DIY
UPDATE: This post originally ran on May 23 2012, but we’re dreaming of an endless summer and wanted to share it again :) I always think my hair looks best after a day at the beach, when the sea salt and sun combine to create loose, carefree waves that just don’t happen anywhere else. Sure, you can buy products to re-create the look, but you can also learn how to make sea salt spray to get beachy, wavy hair any time, any place. I did a little research online and tested out a few combinations before settling on the homemade sea salt spray below – it works like a charm and it also smells just like the beach! What you need: an empty spray bottle, sea salt, coconut oil, a tiny bit of gel, measuring cup and teaspoon. I used Himalayan Sea Salt , which is finely ground and contains a high amount of natural minerals, Nutiva Coconut Oil , and a dab of standard hair gel.

This T-shirt dress was inspired by all those lovely jersey knit, color-blocked dresses from the ’60s, primarily designed by Rudi Gernreich and Mary Quant. While it’s unlikely that we’ll ever get our hands on an original, there’s no reason why we can’t make our own! The silhouettes of this era are typically pretty forgiving and way easy to replicate. My take on this look requires just a few T-shirts and a couple of straight seams—no fancy sewing or garment-fitting skills required!

You could make a whole series of cards like this or just a colorful print to hang on your wall and cheer up the place. Materials needed: Foam or polystyrene container pencil paint or ink small roller

I am teaming up with the Fat Quarter Shop to help you with your Sherbet Pips collection (or any other Moda fabric) so that you can make a few pillows of your very own.I was cleaning out my craft space (or as my family jokingly calls it, "the factory") and I came across a few miscellaneous objects that I thought would be good to use for a project. Here are the items before: some flat glass marbles, unfinished wooden squares, and bottle caps. Now they are super cute magnets for my fridge! Scroll down to see how I made all three styles...
