THE SUN WAS HIGH: DIY While browsing for DIY ideas, I came across a few collar projects, but they all involved sewing doilies to your shirt/dress, cutting the collar from old shirts or crocheting your own neck candy. Therefore, I decided to make my own DIY tutorial on how to make a detachable collar out of old doilies I found at a thrift store for 1$ apiece. Since it's detachable, this kind of collar doesn't involve commitment: you can wear it with any of your dresses or tops. Plus, you don't need mad sewing skills (unless you're particularly rough with your lace/crochet accessories! In this case, I would recommend sewing the edges so they won't fray!). Approx. cost: 1$ Total time: about 10 minutes Cleaning & caring: hand-wash with gentle soap (and you do it by hand! Gather your stuff. Make an incision (just a straight line) on the side of the doily and carefully cut out the center. Sew the pearl on one side. Cut a small piece of embroidery thread, make a loop and twist the ends. Have a good weekend!

Handmade Charlotte | DIY Crafts and Design for Kids a daily something: DIY So I've been on a concrete kick lately...there's no hiding this fact! Thanks to my lovely readers, I now know the difference between concrete and cement. Cement is the powdery substance that turns into concrete when mixed with water and it hardens. Wahoo!! Concrete is a fantastic material, and I always feel like a craftsman when I'm working with it... This DIY shows how to make a lovely concrete bowl (and a heavy one!!). - Water - Flexible rubbery bucket (Walmart - $5) - Plastic bowl (for shaping inside of bowl) (Walmart - $2) - Canola oil and paper towel - Gloves (I used rubbery garden gloves, which cleaned off very easily) - Container for mixing (I used an old wheel barrow) - Stir stick - Scoop - 60 lb bag cement mix (Lowes - $3) Then follow these 8 steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. All that's left is allowing your bowl to dry completely! Enjoy your new concrete bowl. till tomorrow, Rebecca P.S.
diy domino clock - the homesteady did you guys know my mom is the coolest? because she is. she found a domino set + immediately figured out a way to make it into a beautiful clock. i love how avant garde it is, but still funtional + useful. here's how you can make one, too! you'll need:- a domino set (like this one; my mom found hers at marshall's on sale) - clock movements + hands (like these) - a hammer + nail- double-sided removable adhesives (like these) lay out the dominos the way you want them to look as a clock. decide how you want them oriented. we used a plate as a guide. put together your clock movement + hands using the instructions on the package. we used a black cardboard circle to cover the clock movement (+ my dad helped). once it's all put together, hang the movement + hands on a nail. using scotch tape, attach one domino at a time around the clock. rearrange + adjust as necessary before using the adhesive dots to secure them to the wall.
