Recycle Tutorial – Making Of T-Shirt Yarn | craftpassion.com Another tutorial to help save our Mother Earth by turning unwanted items into something useful. This is the yarn ball I made out of an old T-shirt which I have been wearing for 10 years day-in day-out, wash-in wash-out. It finally broke down and tore at the collar and sleeves. Waste not, want not, I decided to recycle it. I have finished making the drawstring bag as shown above. Please click here to have a look and you can download the simple pattern I created. {CLICK HERE to get the Recycle Tutorial – Making Of T-Shirt Yarn.} Pages: 1 2 Print / Download PDF

Make A Dry Erase Board, Dry Erase Whiteboard: Craft Ideas Weekly Whiteboards (or dry erase boards as they are also commonly called) are pretty cool for diagramming and story boarding wild ideas, but the ginormous white ones ubiquitous in most office settings are not exactly something I want in my kitchen (where I currently do most of my work.) They also aren’t particularly portable or easy for the kids to use when they want to draw without wasting paper. Make A Dry Erase Board (Whiteboard) Here is a pretty simple tutorial showing how to make personalized, portable dry erase boards. What You’ll Need: Clear Adhesive Backed Laminate or “Contact” Paper (we used one made by “Duck” available in most stores that sell basic drawer liners.) A sheet of MDF – Larger, pre-cut sizes are available or you can ask the hardware store to cut a 24 x 48 inch sheet into 8 12 x 12 boards (which is what I have done.) White Latex Primer ( I used Killz – you don’t need much so the smaller container will do.) Craft glue Priming the MDF – My son helped! Dry Erase Markers How to do it:
French Knot Monograms (Plus one more embroidery) - NEEDLEWORK I made these monograms for my husband and myself (Joseph and Alyssa)! I would love to frame them in something like this ( but can't seem to find a similar frame for a reasonable price. If anyone has any ides, please let me know! I put them in wooden hoops (I haven't cut the excess fabric, just tucked it behind), but since we're moving in a few weeks I didn't want to put new holes in the wall to hang them. Really easy--just a lot of french knots. I made the "c" for an art swap with a friend. One more embroidery: The phrase doesn't really make sense, I know! I COMPLETELY ripped this design off of someone! The grass is DMC 94, a variegated green.
Crochet Basket Weave Afghan Baby Blanket - Pattern & Tutorial Often, I received feedback from readers asking me where to get the yarns I used for my crochet and/or knitting projects. Frankly speaking, I bought most of my yarns from the local yarn shops around here and I do understand that it is hard for many of you to get the exact one. This time, to make my pattern more yarn-search-friendly, I used Lion Brand, a well known yarn company where you can order online or buy them from shop if they are available. This blanket is made from cotton medium worsted yarn, the basket weave pattern makes it warm and cozy in cold weather.

TUTO : torchon crocheté en lavette, suite et fin. - Creativ-idees, le blog de Casse-bonbec Bonjour les accro'cheteuses ! Voici la suite du tuto pour crocheter un vieux torchon. Si vous avez bien suivi la 1ère partie du tuto, vous avez obtenu ceci : Avant de commencer, un petit conseil : si le temps le permet, mettez-vous dehors pour crocheter, car beaucoup de petits bouts de fil vont tomber pendant le crochetage. Maintenant, il suffit de prendre un gros crochet (n°7 dans mon cas, c'est mon plus gros), faire un nœud coulant pour commencer, et monter une chaînette de 20 m en l'air. Ensuite, faire 1 maille en l'air pour tourner, puis 1 rang de mailles serrées. Vous obtiendrez ainsi un ouvrage avec du relief, qui nettoie mieux, je pense. Continuez ainsi. Y'a plus qu'à mouiller et laver robinets et lavabos ! Après utilisation, essorez bien (c'est épais, ça sera long à sécher) mais sans tordre de toutes vos forces (souvenez-vous que c'est du tissu usé !).
Tiny Polaroid Magnets | { Ambrosia Girl } Hi there! It’s felt like forever since I’ve last blogged, and has felt like an eternity since I’ve done anything crafty and nifty. Since my morning sickness has gone into full speed (yes, we’re expecting our third this fall!) I haven’t felt like myself. I came across these DIY Pantone chip magnets on How About Orange and wanted to do something similar. You will need: Cardboard (mine was the backing of a sketchbook — much thicker than the back of a regular spiral bound notebook) or 2-3 sheets of white cardstock or poster board spray-mounted together to use as a sturdy backing to the magnetsOpaque white marker (necessary only if your cardboard is not white) Craft knife Metal straight edge/ruler Clear packing tape or frisk film. Step 1: Download a Photoshop file of the Polaroid frames below. Step 2: Print out photos onto photo paper. Step 3: Spray the back of your sheet of photos and also the cardboard with spray mount. Step 4: Trim out photos with craft knife. 487 Comments

Sewing a sleep sack I just took a bunch of pics while I made a super fast sleep sack (could have spent more time on it, but was in a hurry and needed a new one), and figured I'd share them with you too. Materials Required: 1 yard of fleece or 1.5 yards cotton/flannelLong zipper (length will depend on size of sleep sack, but should be between 18-24") To make this so that older babies can't remove it, use a separating zipper, with the pull at the *bottom* of the garment instead of at the top (must be a separating zipper for this to work! Instructions: First you need to find a baby gown in the size you want, OR you can just eyeball it and make a template using a footie sleeper as a reference.
