Pom Pom Tutorial – Elmo & Cookie Monster | craftpassion.com I will still do some pom-pom projects this week. Hopefully you can have some gift ideas for the upcoming Christmas Pom Pom is the easiest craft I found to be able to make various cartoon features. All you need is to trim and assemble it with fabric glue. This time I am demonstrating how to make pom poms for Sesame Street characters. Tips: If this is the first time you landed in this blog and wanted to make pom pom, you might find these 2 post useful, Basic Pom Pom Making and Pom Pom Trimming. Material you will need: 1. Apply some fabric glue on the center line of the black felt. Apply some fabric glue at the positions you want to place the nose. Stick the eyes and nose after 5-10 minutes. Apply fabric glue at the position where you want to put the mouth. Finally, Elmo has its mouth and he is happy now!!! You can make Cookie Monster the same way too, use Blue pom pom instead and omit the orange nose Happy “Pom Poming”!!! Get all updates via email: Highlights from Our Partners
sidewalk chalk guy sidewalk chalk guy «« back to gprime.net all material copyrighted by its original creator | The Creators Project | James Powderly The Creators Project: So, James, how do you define your job? It seems to defy categorization. James Powderly: I guess I’m a designer, somewhere between an artist and an engineer. I’ve had a bunch of jobs over the last ten years but they’ve always been focused on technology in some way. It sounds like you have a dream gig, but where do you get the funds to realize these types of projects? Evan Roth [another member of the EyeWriter team] and I began working together because we secured an art residency in New York City at a place called Eyebeam. What do you mean by “fake”? Well, we actually don’t have a physical lab in a specific location; we just have the website. How did someone with your skill set choose creating artistic technology instead of making weapons or equally menacing objects? I think it’s safe to say that when you reach a certain amount of technical capability you can make whatever you envision. Can you briefly explain how the EyeWriter works?

Snow-Globe Soap Dec19 by Brenda Ponnay Stuff their stockings with something they can wash their hands with! What’s cuter than a button, small enough to fit in a stocking, won’t rot your teeth and leaves you squeaky clean? This is technically just “melt and pour” soap so it might be considered cheating to some hard-core soap enthusiasts but I’m not about to mess with lye or distilling vodka when I’ve got a small child acting as my personal assistant. First you’ll cut up the glycerine into 1-inch chunks. Don’t be fooled by the picture above. After you’ve poured the glycerine, let it cool just enough to form a thin skin on the top. After all your toys are arranged, you can add your snow. Next you’ll pop it in the freezer for about twenty minutes or until the cubes are cool to touch from the underside of the ice cube tray (be sure to check the middle). I used a small paring knife to shave off some of the irregularities on the bottom but that was purely aesthetic. If you found us through Stumble Upon!
Beautiful Watercolor Landscapes (12 pieces) Z.L. Feng grew up in Shanghai and began painting at the young age of seven. After experimenting with all kinds of different mediums, he finally settled on a favorite - watercolor. The artist always revered the medium because of its level of difficulty. One of Feng's favorite places to find inspiration is in the countryside of Virginia's New River Valley. Before coming to the U.S. in 1986, Feng received his BFA degree from Shanghai Teacher’s University and taught in its art department for four years. Z.L. Nerd Paradise Posted on: 10 Cado 7:0 - 5.27.29 So you've procrastinated again. You told yourself you wouldn't do this 2 months ago when your professor assigned you this. But you procrastinated anyway. Shame on you. Pick a Topic The more "legally-oriented" your topic is, the better. Make a list ...of every possible outcome that this issue could cause in...the near future...the far future...of every person that this topic affects....of any instances where this topic has come in the news....what you would do about this topic if you had the chance/power/enough-sugar...any little detail you can think ofThe important thing about this is to think of ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING, no matter how silly or far-fetched. Reorder everything Put your most obvious argument first. Then put weird off the wall stuff, regardless of importance. Put the strongest argument for your case next. Now list the incidents that will help argue for your point. It's best to keep all this in the form of an outline. Spaces Now print it out. Write
Pleated Bow Pillowcase Dress Tutorial | Simply Modern Mom This was one of those projects where I had an idea in my mind and I just went with it. Then as I started sewing, I realized that I probably should have thought it out more thoroughly. But it worked out in the end and the results turned out be to better than the image in my mind. So awesome! I made this for Elle who is 17 months. I found this pillowcase at the thrift store and loved the pattern. And like the Retro Ruffle Pillowcase Dress, I did the ribbon-button closure in the back.

Bananas and Monkeys Original source unknown. (But the story appears to have some basis in fact.) Start with a cage containing five monkeys. Inside the cage, hang a banana on a string and place a set of stairs under it. Before long, a monkey will go to the stairs and start to climb towards the banana. After a while, another monkey makes an attempt with the same result - all the other monkeys are sprayed with cold water. Now, put away the cold water. After another attempt and attack, he knows that if he tries to climb the stairs, he will be assaulted. Next, remove another of the original five monkeys and replace it with a new one. Most of the monkeys that are beating him have no idea why they were not permitted to climb the stairs or why they are participating in the beating of the newest monkey. After replacing all the original monkeys, none of the remaining monkeys have ever been sprayed with cold water. And that, my friends, is how company policies are made.

Braided Headband Tutorial It's chilly outside here today and I'm loving it! I enjoyed every minute of reaching into the closet and pulling out soft cozy blankets, snuggling up on the couch with my blanket and laptop to check my e-mail this morning... Don't get me wrong, I'm not a fan of temps below 40 degrees, but a high of 65, I'll take it! Anyway.... on with the tutorial. Here is what we are making today! What you need- Thick hair tie Six 1" strips of fabric Bulldog clip or safety pin Sewing machine (or needle and thread) Fabric tac I ripped my fabric strips so they were a bit frayed on the edges, personal choice. Tack each end of the braid just enough that it doesn't come undone . Then tack both braids together on each end, be careful not to twist the braids. Cut your hair tie so it's one strip of elastic. Sandwich your elastic ends between the ends of your braids on each end, again, careful not to twist the braids. Sew over the elastic so that it's secure. Your done! Enjoy!

GUIDES from Sounds True Get started with Sounds True's four new interactive guides. Learn about the benefits of meditation, the power of energy healing, how to discover your life purpose, and how to develop your intuition, all with leading authors and teachers, plus guided exercises you can try right now!

In this way, meditation can provide physical, psychological, and spiritual benefits. Most people associate the word "healing" with working at the physical level to bring about a change in the body or the mind. Explore areas of passion and vision, conscious work and career, and money and manifestation. Intuition is an insight that comes to you without reasoning or analysis.
