I NEED A NEW STYLE!!

I always love to customize my own clothes when i get bored with my old ones, I sewed rosettes i made from old t-shirts onto a plain tank

i used pliers to take studs off an old belt and then applied them along my jean pockets following the outline of the stitches
I like to make feather headband using feathers ( a bag= about $3 at craft stores) old headbands and felt
you could try cutting an old t-shirt into a vest following the how-to on this site (do a search for vests to find it)
the website www.lovemaegan.com has some GREAT clothing diy's: heres an example of a project from her site

also look up all the t-shirt diy's they have on this site, there are some really easy ways to update your wardrobe

Deleting Favorites
Started January 25, 2009 18:22

There used to be a button underneath each favorite so you could delete them if you no longer wanted them in your favorites, but now there's just a cluster of (remove)'s over each line but i can't tell which project i'm removing when i click on it. Can you please fix this?

a cofee plushie's a really cute idea, keep in mind what subject each teacher teaches, for your math teacher u could decorate a flower pot with math symbols and numbers, you could make a pie with the pi symbol on it, or make your teachers organizers like the pda one on this site, hope these help a little, just some ideas :)

I was thinking of making my dad a an altered book with momento's from my cildhood in it because he really likes scrap booking and would probably like adding to it, also my dad's b-day was yesterday and father's day is in 2 weeks so it's a double whammy!

Hey guys i'm creating a board for our summer swap so that anyone who hasn't started yet (like me:) or needs inspiration, can get help/ suggestions.
Ineed help for my partner she likes fall colors, greens, browns and oranges, vintage women, bare trees (like just the branches), and funny sayings. My only thing is she's alot than me so i'm having trouble coming up with mature ideas. I already have an idea for the tree, but i don't know about the other items.

By vampires do u mean edward cullen? Because you could make her twilight themed things like a coin purse that you stenciled team edward (or team jacob) onto it, also you could make her twilight themed bracelet by buying a white plastic bangle bracelet (at foverer 21 or claires) and then adding rub on letters/ words to it (you can buy these in your local craft/ scrapbook store) and seal it with clear nail polish or varnish.
