Joe and I wanted matching t-shirts for the HM...yep we are that couple :)...not as bad as having a set for each day but we decided on making two pairs total. The first pair are black t-shirts that have iron on letters on them. The second pair is white and I made them with iron on transfers I bought at Joann that you can print out from your computer. Here are pics of both pairs! Front Back Popcon Salt Shakers I have officially gone overboard on my DIY projects :) but I really wanted to do these so I went for it anyway.

18-Year-Old Creates Surreal Artworks to Express Emotions Growing up can be a challenge, especially in the teenage years. Some people use writing or art as a creative outlet for all the emotions they keep inside. Sebastian Eriksson is an 18-year-old up-and-coming surrealist artist living in Sweden. Not only is his artwork amazing, it's extremely thought-provoking as he adds descriptions of how his pieces relate to his life. For instance, in the piece above, he states: "This is another paradox that I've been working on for a couple of days. It describes a person with psychological problems such as schizophrenia, insanity, depression or other mental problems. And for the piece immediately below: "One day I felt like I was lost and I had too much things to think about. We've all felt like Sebastian, but most of us do not have the talent to draw how we feel. Self-portrait of the artist Sebastian Eriksson's website
Window Coating for Energy Efficiency Are you fed up with your home being so cool in winters, or being so heated up in summers? To overcome this, What do you do? Use Air conditioners, or heaters, and always end up in paying high electricity bills. So, Here is the perfect solution for you, Heatcure glass coating by Ivvanka Solutions using Japanese Nanotechnology, and has been introduced for the first time in India. So what are you waiting for? Raluca Alexandru Printing Personalized Post-It Note Messages Several months ago I discovered the surprising (to me!) fact that you can actually PRINT ON POST-IT NOTES using your own home printer. Recently I ran across a similar, but MUCH SIMPLER method for printing personalized messages on post-its, and I couldn’t wait to try (and share) the idea again. Kelly at Studio DIY used this method to print out a cute “Happy Anniversary” greeting. But the idea could be used in SO many other ways! How about an “inspirational message of the week” for the refrigerator? Kind of fun huh? Here’s the simple “How-to”: Open any program on your computer that you can manipulate text with. Now put the paper with the post-it notes on it back into your printer and re-print the exact same page again. Now you can just peel off your perfectly printed post-its and stick them wherever you feel like posting a unique, colorful, and removable message! Never miss a good thing!

how to create fake calligraphy I have always loved beautiful calligraphy. Years ago, my former boss brought me back a calligraphy pen and ink from her trip to Italy. I was so excited to try it out and figured it would be super easy to turn my handwriting into calligraphy with just the flick of a nib {that’s the technical term for the metal pieces that go in the pens – not to be confused with my go-to treat, the twizzler nib}. It didn’t go so well. Then I met Lindsay {of Lindsay Letters – who created that fabulous O Holy Night print } and figured since she is a pro, she could surely give some pointers and it wouldn’t be too hard. Again, the pen and ink proved too complicated for my impatient hands {have you ever tried it? I have yet to learn how to use a real calligraphy pen {although it is on my list of skills to master someday} and have just stuck with my fake calligraphy technique. First, choose a good fine tip ink pen. Now, write your letter. See how easy it is? Here’s another example. then filled in the down strokes:
Animals Illuminated by the Sun The time of sunset is defined in astronomy as the moment when the trailing edge of the Sun’s disk disappears below the horizon in the west. There are few things in nature as photogenic as the sky at sunset, especially animals. The rich bright gold, pink and orange colors make unusually beautiful pictures of animals illuminated by the sun.
