Watermark Tee by Sweet Verbana Hello U-Create readers! I am so excited to be guest posting here today. It just so happens to be my first guest post and I'm still a little shocked that it's here at Ucreate, one of my favorite blogs! A little bit about me.. I'm from a little town called Keller, Texas. I'm a junior at Texas A&M University (whoop!). I'm working on my education degree and expect to be an elementary school teacher in just two short years. When I'm not busy studying for classes, I love to sew. I just started blogging in May and have already met all kinds of wonderful women, I hope you'll stop by and say hi too! Watermark Tee Tutorial What I love about this project is that it's completely customizable. Materials: Elmer's Blue Gel Glue (it must be the blue gel, white won't work) Fabric Dye (RIT is my tried and true brand) A white cotton Tee, Tank, Dress etc. Tutorial: If you're unfamiliar with Batiking, it's a method of dyeing fabric in which you create a design with a dye- resist.

Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom unveiled as Disney World tests interactive role-playing game with theme park guests Walt Disney World has begun enlisting the help of theme park guests to test the new park-wide interactive experience dubbed Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom. Yesterday was the first day in which play testing began with day guests, allowing average attendees to become sorcerers and help stop evil villains from taking over the Magic Kingdom. I took part in the test, which ran from early in the day until the “magic portals” closed at 4 p.m. A sign was posted outside the Main Street USA Fire Station inviting guests to take part in the game test. Before I get too far into describing the new game’s details, it’s important to note that while many guests had the opportunity to take part in the Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom adventure yesterday, it was indeed a test. So how does it play? Video: Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom - Maleficent quest in Fantasyland And another couple full quests, in Adventureland, Liberty Square, and Frontierland (Main Street USA testing had not yet begun):

Paper flower tutorial I thought some of you would enjoy a quick tutorial on how to make those little paper flowers I used as part of my table setting a couple weeks ago. The credit for these go to Martha Stewart (I saw this idea nearly 10 years ago in her magazine, but haven't been able to find it on her website). So here I go.. Step 1: Draw a spiral on a 4x4" square sheet of paper Step 2: Cut out spiral along lines you have drawn Step 3: Begin rolling up the spiral from the outside Step 4: Keep on rolling until there's no more left to roll Step 5: You're done! I used a slightly heavier weight paper for this one, but you can use normal paper as well. Note: You may use a bit of glue or double-stick tape to keep the flower from unrolling and loosening up with time.

The Trenches - Untitled. Untitled. “Has anyone tried maxing out all 4 players’ coins and killing them all simultaneously?” The team that I’d just joined shook their heads. “Not yet. Dude, do you have any idea how long that would take?” We were testing a newly-added multi-player game mode where players collected coins, and—should they die—dumped those coins into the environment for other players to steal. “Do we have something better to do?” It was 10 AM. We spent the next 12 hours collecting coins on 3 characters, getting two players up to 9999 coins and a 3rd up to roughly 7000 before the tedium overwhelmed us. A deluge of coins dumped into the environment non-stop for 20 or 30 seconds. We roared a cheer and began to congratulate each other.. “What did you do?!?” The assistant coordinator approached us from his desk and we explained what we had done and how long it had taken to set up. “Alright,” he said, turning, already heading to sit back down at his desk, “Reproduce it.”

Alex Grey Sweden's bizarre tradition of watching Donald Duck (Kalle Anka) cartoons on Christmas Eve Photo by Frazer Harrison/Getty Images Nothing says Christmas like Donald Duck … if you’re Swedish. Every culture has its own holiday customs, and Jeremy Stahl, a non-Swede and a “partially lapsed Jew,” stumbled upon an odd one during a trip to Sweden. In the article reprinted below, Stahl explains the Christmas cartoon tradition. Three years ago, I went to Sweden with my then-girlfriend (now-wife), to meet her family and celebrate my first Christmas. Kalle Anka, for short, has been airing without commercial interruption at the same time on Sweden's main public-television channel, TV1, on Christmas Eve (when Swedes traditionally celebrate the holiday) since 1959. Kalle Anka is typically one of the three most popular television events of the year, with between 40 and 50 percent of the country tuning in to watch. The show's cultural significance cannot be understated. To Kättström Höök, Sweden's affection for Kalle Anka is tied up with older holiday traditions.
