Bed cover with scraps...


Hi,

Found few scraps  lying around, got inspired by quilting idea ,and cut all pieces of same length and width, choose any size you are comfortable with , measure the bed or the couch that you want to cover with as it will be easier, stitch it in following style. all you need here is scraps, scissors,basic sewing knowledge and loads of patience...

i know its not perfect but this was my first attempt..planning to using rectangulr bright color pieces and try out :P
















Have fun sewing :)

Hello There,

Today let me share yet another DIY project that i have fallen in love with.. and i have spent only on the wheels fixed on the bottom of this Mobile Library

The instruction for making the cable spool library table is given in the following link.



Required:

Cable spool
Spray paint color of your choice
Nails
Screws
Wood Putty
wheels
* use drilling machine to drill the hole then nail it

Cute nothings out of scrap....


 Hello Everyone,

i always had the craze to collect, cardboard that is placed under Christmas cakes, and cards sent by my friends, let me tell you how i used those in my craft today.

lets begin giving it a new life.

requirements:

1.old hard cardboard (any shape ,i chose circular)
2. Fabric paints ( depending on the picture you want to paint)
* i chose green, pink, blue , copper.
3.a cut outs from a greeting card or a postcard
4.bubble wrap
5.pair of scissors 
6.glue
7.Plastic food wraps.

First i calculated and placed the cut outs to check how much of space each picture and painting would require







s

I placed my cut out .i.e, the cute teddy on bubble wrap sheet and cut it as same shape as the teddy

sketched the tree and garden as i had planned the teddy to be enjoying its day out in green

after painting the garden, use free style sketches and any faults can be covered by colors that you use
got a fence piece in the same card i took the cut out from
the little color thingies are the flowers in the garden



then comes the teddy 
                                                    climbing up the tree with his ladder
as the finishing touch used the tin opener as the hook for the frame and wrapped the entire frame with the 
PVC plastic food wrap as the shield against dirt and dust.
NOW YOU HAVE YOUR OWN CUTE TEDDY FRAME WHICH DOES NOT EVEN COST YOU A RUPEE
