A while ago, I saw this sailor hat in a local shop, but, when I went back hoping to buy one, they were sold out. As usual, since then, I've resorted to attempt to DIY it. I've not yet experimented with it or anything, but, I was wondering... Does anyone have any tutorials or...

i've got this gorgeous plain notebook from paperchase: http://www.paperchase.co.uk/notebooks/composition-kraft-notebook/invt/00473337/ and i want to make it into a journal-type thing- more arty than a diary but still with the odd written entry.. kind of like "wreck this...

I am terrible at getting things started and this does not just apply to important tasks such as form filling or report. writing...once I have decided to do something it becomes a "job" and is destined to remain in the "to do" section of my psyche for an indefinite time period....

Ok, so I volunteer for Stonewall (an LGBT charity), and they've asked me to make some film clips, but I'm completely uninspired! brief - Five 2-3 minute long clips - be creative - stonewall should be able to use them to promote Anti-bullying week - help raise awareness of...

I'm going to keep this short, because I could talk about it all day, but basically, my husband and I came into hard times almost a year ago, so we moved into his mother's house. His mother, I hate to say, is overbearing and very controlling. She has had me on edge quite a few...

So me and my boy friend have been together about a month now and one thing that is becomming apparent is he has a bad reputation. Im currently taking my AS's he is 2 years older than me. He has had lots of problematic relationships, he's on anti depressants, he mange to get...

So I just made a tutu yesterday, simple tying of the tulle onto elastic, and when I went to take it off the knots began to move around the making areas more or less covered. I was wondering if there was something I could do to prevent that. Luckily this was a practice run...

hey guys, I've started selling my jewelry in my friend circle and also in my college and luckily have received a very positive feedback from all and my jewelry designs are a huge hit. I think i am ready to expand my market a bit and experiment with my creative skills. I want...

Ok so I'm a bit shaky from what just went down. My best friend and I like to drive around our city at night for a little bit and listen to music and we most often end up parking somewhere public and turning off the car and we people watch and talk and listen to music - it...

I made this list of activities for my friend who works at a daycare and thought I'd share. Of course, there's baking, the book and movies involved. -paint/colour only in blue (for the blueberry pie in the gum!) -make golden tickets -Ask students to guess how many M&M's are in...

I saw a challenge for finding patterns and I really liked the idea but the thread was three years old...so I think I'll start a new one~ The person above you will have a pattern or diy they want, you search the internet looking for it, when you find it you post it here and ask...

A craft swap for bvb fans. i had some great ideas for bvb craft projects, and want another bvb fan to do a swap with.

ok this may sound silly but what actually causes the clay to dry? heat, coldness, moisture in the air? I want to make something rather large out of airdrying clay (for the size i want, the clay is cheaper then cooking stuff, plus the inside of it is a big polystyrene ball so i...

So i want to make a chain out of material rather then buy a metal one. reasons for this: 1. it's lighter 2. it's warmer 3. its cheaper 4. its for a costume Does anyone have any idea how to make it? i dont want to use fimo/cupley/clay because that is expensive, heavy and could...

So I had an idea that I'm really excited about for an iron-on t-shirt, but if possible, I'd like to distress the iron-on a bit. I was considering sandpaper, but I read that that takes the image right off, merely ruining the shirt, so i'm not sure. Does anyone have experience...

I was wondering if anyone could shed a little light on the list facility on here. I've been making a lot of lists as I find its a really good way of organising what I want to make. Everytime I make one it has a tab that asks if I want to make my list public or private. So far...

Hi everybody! I'm looking for any ghost-type Pokemon action figures to do a fun Halloween project with! Sadly, I don't have any, and looking around Ebay, each one runs around $8 or so with shipping, and sometimes without shipping added in! I don't want to fork out a bazillion...

Has anyone ever used to it print designs onto clothing? And if so, then where is the best place to buy it online? Ebay would be helpful, as I might only be able to pay with postal order. Thanks
