Dyeing with Bleach Time: 1 hour Materials: Cloth, bleach, q-tip/or paint brush Before you begin, make sure you are in a well ventilated area and that you have something between the cloth and your working surface as the bleach will bleed through. Keep your design simple and don’t expect it to be perfect! Note that your design will not show up immediately, it takes about 10-15 seconds for the bleach to develop.

Drink Can Tinwork Tinwork Embossed tinwork is sometimes used to decorate rustic style photo or mirror frames, or just to make decorative items such as Christmas tree decorations. The metal used is usually thicker (tinplate) and is normally worked with hammered tools - I wanted to try to get a similar effect, but with a bit less effort. The Most Popular ArticleOn Atomic Shrimp No, really! More Metalwork If this project interested you, you might also like Lost Wax Casting Safety This project makes use of very thin sheet metal that is likely to have sharp, jagged edges and is prone to springing back. Great care should be taken to avoid injury. This project probably isn't suitable for children - and certainly not without supervision. Updated Autumn 2010 - now with Video Goodness!

Once that was done and the porch was all cleared out I knew I had to make it something that was worth having.

Zipper Tutorial » twelve22 Once upon a time, somebody asked how I do my zippers. Because I like to share knowledge, I decided I’d write up a little tutorial for my method (and probably the method of others, too). Because I am lazy busy, it’s taken me a long time, but I finally got round to it. Some things: This is a tutorial for a zipped pouch, but you can use the same method on larger projects. Take one piece of your outer fabric and lay it down on top, right-side-down, creating a delicious zipper sandwich. With your sewn zipper sandwich, fold back the two pieces of fabric so the wrong sides are together, like so: Again, you can pin your pieces together or iron it flat, but I just can’t be bothered. Repeat for the other side of the zipper, and you’ll wind up with something like the photo below. Flip some fabric around until you’ve got both pieces of outer fabric on one side of the zipper and both pieces of lining fabric on the other. Carefully line up the top edges of the outer fabric as in the photo below.

Origami box in Crafts for home stationery and paper for birthdays, anniversaries or dinners Fabulous origami box which we can make it in a moment, and it's great to keep the gifts we want to give as a present or just to store our little treasures. It's as simple as with a pencil mark the diagonals of the square paper (about 20 cm to the base and 14,5 cm for the top) chosen for the box. Then fold the opposite sides toward the center helping a pencil to mark well the fold (the wrong side). To make the base, fold the opposite sides parallel to the midpoint and toward the inside and should measure about 3,5 cm. For the lid, fold the opposite sides (should measure 1,4 cm each), folding and unfolding and repeating the process with the other side. If we pay attention, a little wrinkle has been created in the folds of the corners of the base and lid. Finally, displays the opposite sides of both the base and lid and return to fold inward.
