recyclage et Cie . . . How to cut glass | JADERBOMBJADERBOMB I posted a picture about 1 week ago on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter of me cutting glass using just string. I got LOT’S of requests for a tutorial on how I DID THIS! So here it is. FINALLY! I want to warn you. It’s best to triple your yarn because it will burn longer! Soak it GOOD! I like to tie my yarn where I want my glass to “cut” then quickly pour polish remover over the string again. Get a big bowl with ice and water ready. VERY IMPORTANT! Slowly turn your bottle. You can’t let the flame go OUT then dunk it in the ice water. YAY!!! I reallly hope you enjoyed this tutorial because I had ALOT of requests for it! © Copyright jaderbombllc, All rights Reserved.

oklava :D Spray Painted Glass Jars and Bottles I have a real problem throwing away perfectly good glass jars and bottles. To me they are little craft gems waiting for me to transform them. With Mother’s Day and Teacher Appreciation coming up, I decided to turn some of our recycled bottles into cute gifts for Mom and my sons’ teachers. Before you begin this project, I want to warn you to be flexible. The painting step has the potential to get messed up, but that doesn’t mean the project has to be a failure. Materials: Glass Bottles or JarsSpray PaintRubber GlovesPlastic BagsMasking or Painter’s TapeDrop Cloth, Tarp or PlasticFoam StickersX-acto KnifePencilEmbellishments: beads, transfer rub-ons, wire, fabric, ribbon, raffia, lace, or whatever you have lying aroundHot Glue Gun & Glue Sticks Instructions: Clean out the bottles/jars and let them dry completely. Select some foam stickers to use as a mask on your bottle. I chose a heart and then cut an “M” into a circle foam sticker using an X-acto knife. Wait a few minutes and repeat.

Color Tinted Glass Jars Calling all spaghetti sauce jars, jelly & jam jars, pickle jars and more! For some reason, I am always saving our glass jars-to the point where I have a ridiculous collection. I know that some of them will be used as bug collecting jars this summer for the boys, but I still have way too many and yet I’m always telling myself I’ll find a useful or fun way to reuse them. I was searching around on Pinterest the other week and I came across this post on how to color tint jars into the classic blue look of vintage mason jars. Perfect! It was definitely an experiment and this tutorial isn’t specific down to the number of drops of food coloring-just try it and play around with whatever color you have in mind. What You’ll Need: - empty glass jars – mixing bowls – newspaper – paper towels – wax paper – mod podge – food coloring – stir stick/small spoon – oven Step 1 – Mix Mod Podge, water and food coloring in a small bowl. Step 2 – prep a baking sheet or pan by lining it with newpaper. Ta-da!
Papercraft animal alphabet This is the official announcement for the papercraft alphabet I just finished uploading. That was quite some work, especially with two hyperactive kids climbing all over me while I am typing. By the way, if you speak German: Hätte auch auf Deutsch funktioniert. Anyway, the alphabet is now complete – a collection of 26 papercraft templates for all letters 0f the alphabet, each representing an animal, thing, or people starting with that letter: You will find the complete list of templates here. You can use them for education, as toys, or to spell out whatever message you want to get across. Here is a ZIP file containing all templates as PDFs. Have fun with these – and if you do, I wouldn’t mind if you help to spread the word… Edit: I have just uploaded numbers to go with the alphabet.
