Frozen in Time: Priceless Castings That ANYONE Can Do...
It was just the other day I gave birth to my youngest son, Jake. Well, at least that's how I feel. Last Saturday was his first birthday. I have no idea where the time went-Any mother or father would tell you how fast time really does go by and that we should all treasure every second of every day with our kids. I would recommend this one since it sets faster. First, find a container big enough to fit your child's hand or feet without it touching the insides of the container. These are the instructions for mixing and molding: Three part water to one part powder. I used a fork to mix but use a wire whisk for a better, smoother result. When you are all done with mixing, pour the liquid into your size appropriate container and insert the child's hand. Set aside your mold in the container and start mixing your casting plaster for the mold. When hardened, Remove from the container and gently break the rubbery gel mold apart. These are a sleeping infant's precious hands...aweee Enjoy!!
Lovers in a Dangerous Time
Jun 16, 2011 Photograph by RICH LAM/Getty Images Riot police walk the street as a couple kiss on June 15, 2011 in Vancouver, as the city broke out in riots, following the Vancouver Canucks loss in game seven of the Stanley Cup Finals.

{DIY: Film Light} « sweater eyes the castle builder
So in my never-ending quest to avoid business work, and re-decorate my entire house without spending more than $20, I bring you the “new” addition to my bedroom: the 35mm Film Side-Table Light! I made it by ripping apart an old side table light I had purchased with an ex, so I was more than happy to make it into something way cooler (and of course, rip it apart). It was originally this rather tacky oriental-inspired, flimsy lantern thing, with textured paper (it’s not that it was entirely that ugly, but it was brown, black and white, and I wanted colour!). It was all really easy to do. I’m really happy with how it turned out. xoxo Like this: Like Loading...

DIY Idea: Rainbow Melted Crayon Art » Man Made DIY | Crafts for Men « Keywords: diy, crayon, how-to, color
Artist and designer Jessica Kerbawy creates these amazing rainbow wall art pieces by gluing a spectrum of crayons on foam core, and then strategically melting them with a heat gun. The paper wrappers are left atop, with the remains of the colored wax dripping down. Though it may look like something you've seen before, I find these to be pretty clever and unique, and an update on the playing with melted wax and rainbow techniques. Jessica's prices are actually incredibly reasonable, between $25 and $75 depending on the size. But, it's also something you could try yourself, especially now that it's back-to-school season, and large boxes of crayons will be on sale.
