Double the length and add 1 -2 inches to each of the hemp strings. Fold string so that there are 2 equal lengths of hemp. Make a knot approximately 1.5 inches from the fold on each string, for the toe holds. Add beads (the same on each length of string) for 2-3 inches. Then knot the two pieces of string together. Continue to add beads to each string, until the beads fit around the ankle. Use jewelry closures to finish off each sandal.]]> </content> <author> <name>Teresa E.</name> <uri>https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/users/86319</uri> </author> </entry> <entry> <id>tag:www.cutoutandkeep.net,2005:Project/83974</id> <published>2012-12-02T00:50:13+00:00</published> <updated>2012-12-02T00:50:13+00:00</updated> <link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/jeweled-christmas-tree-gingham-style"/> <title>Jeweled Christmas Tree Gingham Style</title> <summary>Home made Christmas tree decor.</summary> <content type="html"> <![CDATA[<img src='https://images.coplusk.net/project_images/139526/image/square_IMG_0526.jpg' width='240' height='240'/><br/>Heat up the glue sticks.

I love the folds on the center of the hat, and the seam around the top just makes it look a little more floppy.

Next, I cut out numerous steampunk comic pictures and mod-podged them onto the table top. Once the collage of pictures looked right, I added a resin layer, for durability, and a beautiful, glass like sheen.
