Awesome DIY Ideas With Wine Corks Here you can find our favourite ways to recycle your wine corks into cool crafts. untitled Salvaged drawers = modular bookcase I picked up these drawers on Freecycle. They were salvaged from the kitchen of a 1940s house that was demolished. My original plan was to put the drawers on wheels and use them as under-bed storage. Turns out, no two drawers are the same height, which would look janky. How to make a modular bookcase out of salvaged drawers Supplies primer2 coordinating paint colorsdecorative or wrapping paper.

A real hands on craft! Alginate/plaster of paris sculptures. I love crafts and I love new things. When I get to craft with new supplies or techniques, I totally flip. So, I bought a couple boxes of plaster of Paris a while back ago with no real intentions on how to use the stuff. Searching Amazon on my phone out of boredom one day I ran into the most awesome stuff – alginate. Now, what is alginate you might ask? So, I bought six pounds of the stuff, straight off of my phone with no idea what to do with it. I just so happen to be needing some place to hang all of my lovely necklaces. pitcherdry measuring cupliquid measuring cupwooden spoonrectangular shaped bowl (I used a reusable/disposable food storage container in the 8 cup size)wateralginateplaster of Parisknifeself adjusting (sawtooth) picture hangers with spikes to push in Step 1: First things first – mixing your alginate and transferring it to your container you will be making the mold in.

How To Make a Secret Hollow Book: The first step into making the hollow book is to select a book. Make sure this is a book your own, and not one belonging to the library, or your family. I suggest rummaging through books at yard/garage sales. Make sure it is a hardback; otherwise you will cut all the way through the other side when you are cutting out the insides.You'll also need: Elmer's white gluea container to hold glue solution (I've chosen a film canister)X-acto knife, and/or box cutter. Mix a solution of white glue and water. Holding the remaining pages together, brush the edges with the glue solution - enough to soak in pretty well, but not too drippy. Allow this to dry, but use a spacer so the first couple pages, and the front cover don't get stuck. When dry, open the book to the first glued page. Draw out a half-inch boarder around the edge on all four sides. Using a strait edge and knife, cut out along the inside of the line. Continue cutting down through the layers. Remember that first page we saved?
Pysseltajm - Gör egna bokmärken Som jag skrev i det här inlägget funderade jag på att göra en tutorial för att göra egna bokmärken, vilket vissa av er gärna ville se. Så.. här är den! För att göra bokmärken behöver du: Papper i fina färger (Alternativ vita som du sedan kan måla)LimSaxPennaLinjalEventuellt färgpennor Först ska vi göra en mall. Först mäter du upp en kvadrat som är 10 x 10 cm stor. Därefter märker du ut var hälften på varje sida är. Sedan drar du linjer där du gjort markeringarna så att fyra mindre kvadrater bildas. I två av de mindre kvadraterna drar du linjer på diagonalen, som bilden till vänster visar. Sen är det bara att klippa ut mallen. Nu ska mallen användas på ett färgat papper. Sen klipper du efter linjerna. Nu är det dags att vika bokmärken. Sen viker du den andra fliken också. Dags för lim! Sådär! Du kan dekorera ditt bokmärke precis som du vill! Sedan klippte jag ut dem och målade dit pupiller. Limma! Tadaa! Nu är det bara att hänga det över kanten på boksidor. Lycka till! Sofia
DIY: Dry-Erase Calendar Since joining the Pinterest world, I have found so many things that I want to make! One that caught my attention was a dry-erase calendar. So, I decided to make one for my office out of green paint chips. When I went to Wal-Mart, the cashier gave me the "stink eye" because I was carrying LOTS of paint chips. I bet the thought going through her mind was, "I can't believe she's getting all those paint chips for free!" Note to self, next time I am doing a project with paint chips, I'll remember not to go through that lady's checkout. I then went to Hobby Lobby and purchased a 12" X 16" frame. I didn't want a basic frame--I wanted something vintage looking. I found a white-washed frame at half-price, then took it home and did my own antiquing to it by smearing some brown paint on the wood. It came out just the way I wanted it. Beforehand, I had cut all my paint chips to be 2" x 2". Just enough room to write the times of important meetings. Then I arranged the colors so that there was a
