Song Lyric Wall Art / D.I.Y. Project A couple weeks ago, I found a paint-by-number at an unbeatable price. I can't pass these things up even though I already owned this particular design. I thought that I could maybe use it to make a fun D.I.Y., but my new rule is that all thrifts that I purchase with the intent of restyling need to get done right away. I have way too many half finished projects in my life. With that little bit of motivation I came up with a fun D.I.Y. to display some of my favorite song lyrcis in our newlywed home. Enjoy.... Here's how I did it... I displayed our piece in our bedroom, on Jeremy's side of the bed. A couple weeks ago, I found a paint-by-number at an unbeatable price.
- StumbleUpon Story of handwritten fonts (or we can say only fonts) starts from very old ages, when people was just realizing the need of communication between one and other. People learned to convey their message by using signs and symbols , this process continued and entered different stages of development until the languages and letters were formed. People used to communicate through letters and telegrams, then with the advancement in technology we started using Emails with formal fonts, leaving handwritten letters behind. But now people are going back to use Handwritten fonts to give the communication more personal and informal touch .

Au Revoir Simone. TetraBox Light by Ed Chew & Yanko Design Liquid to Light Designer Ed Chew takes a green step in the right direction with the TetraBox lamp, a light object made from discarded drink packets that would have otherwise ended up in landfills already packed to the brim. The design is achieved by unfolding the packets and refolding them into hexagonal and pentagonal sections that are then pieced together to form a geodesic sphere or any other desired shape. Designer: Ed Chew The Full Game of Thrones Family Crest Line-Up | It was pointed out to me a week ago that Thomas Gateley, the man behind the Game of Thrones minimalism series I featured, actually had a larger collection relating to the series that was worth checking out. I went on his Flickr page and found that he’s crafted a poster for 20 different houses in the GoT universe, complete with symbol, slogan and allegiance. Sure most of us know the Starks and the Lannisters at this point, but the Brackens? Martells? Boltons? I didn’t think so. I hereby issue a challenge to Game of Thrones know-it-alls out there to help use noobs understand the universe better.
tortillion.htm How To Make A Tortillion A tortillion is nothing more than a piece of rolled paper used as a blending tool. The softness or hardness of the tortillion is controlled by the type of paper you choose to make it out of. I have never liked to use a finger or a blending stump on a drawing because it always looks like a big smudge when you are finished. These are the measurements I use. Use different types of paper. Start with a small fold in the corner. Once you get the rolling going keep it at an angle. Here is one that's almost finished. The finished tortillion is held together with a small piece of masking tape. Here are three tortillions using different types of paper. Here is a small example of tortillion blending.
