For your first teacher maybe a picture frame that you decorate/paint yourself with a quote of a famous English writer in it?

you can also make candle holders out of them :) maybe not such an original idea, but it would look nice as a centerpiece on your table, because you have multiple of them :) (for Christmas maybe)

Help deciding what to make
Started 8 months ago · Last post 7 months ago ·
you can make a fascinator or some sort of hair clip :) there are plenty of tutorials for that here on CO+K :) or you can use them to decorate a mask, make feather extensions for your hair, make earrings, shoulder pads, gift tags.... there are a lot of possibilities :) I'll include some pictures of what I found with google :)

Am I the only early christmas crafter??
Started 8 months ago · Last post 7 months ago ·
Me too, I'm already collecting ideas :) I want to make my own Christmas cards this year, to send to friends and family :) Last year, I bought these really pretty Christmas themed stamps, but somehow never got to it to actually make the cards... So hopefully I'll succeed this year :)
Lot of interesting ideas I've read here too :)

Started 7 months ago · Last post 7 months ago ·
Thanks Monika, that is a really nice idea! Maybe I can do that for the large earrings I bought her :) I'm still looking for something to put all the stud earrings in, I just came across this: http://images.rockler.com/images/articles/box.jpg maybe I can make that out of an old wooden cigar box or something :)

earring gift box
Started 7 months ago · Last post 7 months ago ·
So my sister's birthday is in a month, and since she is always stealing my earrings (she doesn't have as many as I do) I decided to give her a box full of earrings.
Now I want something original to put the earrings in, something box-like, which displays the earrings nicely when she opens it... Does anyone have an idea? That would be so helpful!

yay! I've been waiting for a new challenge :D too bad I leave on a holiday today... But I hope this is still running at the end of august ^^
Luckily, I still had yesterday to make something, and you just gave me the inspiration for my mom's birthday/gift card!
I don't know how to insert a picture here, so I made it into a project :) http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/owl-gift-card
(I must say, I used a template to make this because I didn't have much time left to make something, but I shared the link :) )
