stencil with freezer paper (harry potter tee)... - StumbleUpon

Yes, I am a nerd. I came up with a brilliant idea for a Harry Potter t-shirt and I couldn't resist. "Expecto Patronum!" However, you can make whatever kind of design you want with a freezer paper stencil. It doesn't have to be Harry Potter related. (Although it would be awesome if it was.)

Natural Pine Wreath « berkshiregirl

http://berkshiregirl.wordpress.com/tag/natural-pine-wreath/ This simple Pine Wreath is made from 4 pine boughs, a metal ring, florist’s wire, pine cones, and assorted other trimmings. I always trim the bottom branches from our Christmas tree to use for wreaths and other craft projects. This wreath is a bit thinner than I normally like them, but I didn’t have as many boughs as I needed to make it fuller.
