    Have you tried the local hardware store? They sell all kinds of sizes by the foot and depending on your creative level you might find something you like.

    Easy caramel: boil condensed milk in the can for 2 to 2.5 hours. (Make sure the can is completely covered with water). Let can cool, open and enjoy yummy caramel with no mess!

    I'm a kitchen late bloomer so you may already know this....

    I'm making chicken stock today. Did you know you can boil the carcass 3X's???? I was floored but I tried it and honestly the best stock comes from the last batch!

    The reason is that the marrow starts to come out the third time. You'll know you're done when the bones are practically rubber.

    I use my pressure cooker for even tastier results, and I mix all 3 batches together before I cool it, bag it and freeze it. LOVE chicken stock substitute for any water based recipe.

    (Awesome thread, Pinkweeds, Thanks!)

    Spray painted flowers, glued to a canvas or other painted material (same color paint) and holes poked through the canvas outlining the flowers and letting the light shine through..... might work.

    I do not trust my artistic ability to do cut outs...But you are dead right about the canvas. I would destroy vellum or parchment. Maybe a lighter fabric like a white cotton? The paint over it would keep light out where I don't want it. And, I could use the stencil, decal idea.

    You think?

    From Pinterest: Use tall canvas, apply stickers, decal, etc., and spray paint. Remove Decals; hang white lights behind it.

    Do you think that would work?

    This is actually made out of white powdered coated metal. I want to re-create an affordable version. Material would need to be durable but bendable and it would need to block enough light to be effective. Any idea's?

    Sadly, I could not post on your blog, it thinks I am "Dallas Sink" for some reason...lol

    I'm curious if you know you already have an AWESOME name? The Elfin Adventure Nation (T.E.A. Nation) I love it. You can always refer to your personal tea-partiers as the Nation. I've done marketing for over 20 years and it does have legs.

    March on, friendly Elven-earth advocates! Today the nation, tomorrow the world.

    ;)
