I need your help Cutiutandkeep.com!!! Y'all are some of the smartest craftiest people I know and other websites have failed me. I am creating a costume...a Steampunk Charizard costume. I got a buddy of mine rendering a drawing but for now it's all in my upstairs area. Here is...

I keep hearing all of these great costumes people made for past Halloweens, and I'm jealous This will be my first Halloween as a crafter, but I don't think I'm good enough to make a fancy costume.. I do think I'll be trick-or-treating this year, at my mall, because I'm only...

I saw on the board on here some people talking about the book 99 Ways to Cut, Sew, Trim & Tie Your T-Shirt into Something Special, and I was wondering if anyone knows if there are any websites that show you the same things? There's quite a lot on here, but I want to try out as...

Hey everyone! I am in the tutorial mood lately I love seeing things and breaking down how to make them for myself 3 So I figured I'd see if anyone has some ideas for tutorials you'd like to see. One I'd like to see (and have actually been working on for a while because I...

Wow...you have some Russian rubles, I'm jealous! I have some old coins pre-Euro from when we were stationed in Germany (German, French, England, Korea, etc) that I might can scare up for you if you'd like. I'll see where my baggie got hidden.

I recommend the Vtech Storio! My daughter got one for her birthday and she Loves it! Makes her feel dead grown up that she has her own "piputer" (computer haha!)

I have seen some awesome Steampunk stuff online, so I am working on some original ideas inside my head. (Which is always my first creative step)The Steampunk keyboard is amazing and the Mariner's Flash Drive is easy and way cool. I am not trying to get ideas for this kind of...

How do they work? My basic understanding is that you post a topic, ask for a swap i.e. ask for a fabric swap, person 1 makes a pillow and person 2 makes a plushie. But, what do you do then..? I'm really new to CO+K so I dont know much.

Hi all I want to make some of these fab comic book shoes that keep popping up on the site, but I've not been able to find Outdoor Mod Podge at a price I can afford (*sniff sniff* I ish poooooor!). Does anyone know of a cheap alternative I can use? Alternatively, does the...

I have noted that many crafters are gothic. If one is not near a Hot Topic Store or anything like that, you have to make your own items. Of course, Hot topic is quite lacking. You may find online shopping to be the way, but if you do not have a credit or debit card, you are...

Does anyone else use this place? http://pinterest.com/strawberry_dino/pins/ It's a super resource for DIY crafts

I was going to make a cube, but I was wondering if it would be okay to put foil inside it to fill it up so I don't have to use as much fimo. I was wondering if it would hurt it or smell bad when I put it in the oven.

So how do I remove a favorite?

Hey! I wanted to try something new with crafting so i started with cross stitching. The problem is that it isn't very popular in Holland so there ain't much patterns i can use. I especially like Mario themed patterns. Does anyone got any patterns that you can e-mail? If you...

Does anyone know where to buy ring backs? I live in the U.S. and I can't find any at Wal-Mart or Michaels. I guess I could just be looking in the wrong place at Michaels. I was wondering, if you don't know of a store, if there was a reputable website that sells them. All...

I was wondering what the difference (if any) was between the three. Do you use each for different projects? Is one harder/softer? Is one easier to sculpt or work with? Are they all bake or are some air dry? I guess these might be stupid questions, but I'm a complete novice. I...
