Photo Tile Coasters {Using Resin} Last Christmas I almost had a breakdown... We had just moved in to our home the month before, but I didn't want to let that prevent us from having the holliest jolliest Christmas. My intentions were good. And that's how it happened. Well, with this project I created an anniversary gift AND a Christmas gift. While I was in Utah, my sweet cousin Michelle showed me a couple of projects using resin. Here's how I made these photo coasters... I started out with a trip to Home Depot. Next, I ordered some photos. Only 13 cents a print at Costco! I used a regular old Elmer's glue stick to paste each picture onto the tiles. I won't give a full tutorial on using resin because each product is a little different. After mixing the resin with the hardener, I just poured it on! Then it took them a full 24 hours to harden up! Once dry, I mounted 4 of the felt circles on the bottom of each tile so they would slide easily on wood without scratching! All done! Now these are stinkin' cute!! Happy weekend!

Book Clock {Tutorial} For someone who is as obsessed with books, like I am, you can't beat this piece of time-telling art. It has graced my bedroom for months, showing off my bookishness, geekiness, and craftiness (and all of that adds up to awesomeness, yes? lol, now I sound like my brothers). You can see more of my Destroyable Book projects {here}, and more of my DIY bedroom decorating {here}. You will need:a Destroyable Bookand Xacto or utility knifea clock movement (buy one from the store or gut an old clock)Mod Podge or other glue This tutorial will be mostly pictorial, since much of it is quite redundant to the Secret Book Box that I made recently. Gather your materials Figure out where you want the clock to be situated. The next few pictures show me hollowing out a hole in the book. (You also have the option of gluing after you have cut out the hollow portion. If the pictures didn't make sense, the instructions for making a hollow book are {here}. Make a hole where the clock hands will go. Ta-dah! P.S.

Wit & Whistle & Blog Archive & DIY: Stencil Pillow January 16th, 2012 Have you tried fabric markers yet? I finally got around to it, and they work great. Paired with a stencil you can use them to stencil your favorite quote on a tea towel, apron, t-shirt, table runner, pillow cover, place mat, cloth napkin, old pair of blue jeans—anything you can think of! {*style:<i><b>Supplies: </b></i>*}fabric item you want to stencil on some cardboard a pencil a letter stencil (I have this one. ) a fabric marker (I loved my black Sharpie fabric marker!) After choosing your quote, wrap your fabric over the cardboard to keep the marker from bleeding through and to keep the fabric stretched out smooth. Use a pencil to stencil your quote onto the fabric. Once you’ve penciled everything in, go at it with your fabric marker! The Sharpie fabric marker packaging didn’t say anything about heat setting the ink, but I will probably press my fabric before I wash it, just to be safe.
