I'm assuming the body is made out of porcelain?.. For the body, you could probably use what you would use to clean a bathtub, and to get around the small details use a q-tip. There's some really precise ones available in the nail section at the drug store.. The face doesn't seem that bad.. you could probably just mix a black paint and repaint the one eye section.. Hmm.. I don't know about the hair, you could put it into a bun on top of her head.. That might cover up the bald spots.. Then you might make it shiny with like.. Some kind of shine spray for human hair..

yarn dog pattern?
Started 11 months ago · Last post 11 months ago ·
Hmm.. Looked again, Still no luck.. Have you tried going on ebay or etsy and looked up "60's Craft Books?" You can ask your mom if she knows any of the titles of the books that they were in.. Try finding books at thrift stores. Vintage Stores.. Ect. But as far as the internet goes.. I can't find anything.. Sorry!

Curling short hair?
Started 11 months ago · Last post 11 months ago ·
I have short hair, not as short as my chin, but shorter than my shoulders, you know what I mean?Annyway, I'm graduating this week and I want my hair to look like this http://thebeautydepartment.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/TBDfashion3-2.jpg (The short and curly one at the very bottom)
But the problem is, that every time that I curl my hair.. it doesn't come out like this AT ALL! I am using i think a 1/2 in curling barrel, and the curls come out all lopsided, and they come undone very easily.. any help?

Graduation Presents?
Started 11 months ago · Last post 11 months ago ·
Ok, So I have 2 younger sisters that are twins and are graduating 5th grade on friday. I want to get them something but I don't know what they will like.
Like I said before they're both 11, One of them loves video games! She cannot stand to be away from the computer or the TV for more than 10 minutes at a time. She likes Minecraft, that's her favorite. She also likes American Girl Dolls, and Disney Channel
The other one is a dancer. She dances all of the time, Ballet, Tap, Jazz, you name it, she does it. She also LOVES her hair.
I have a deadline of friday, so anything that I could make for them quick would be much appreciated. Thanks!

A deuce is a kind of car, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Model_B_(1932)#Deuce_coupe Interesting fact.. Bruce Springsteen wrote the lyric "Cut loose like a deuce" but then Manfred Mann changed it to "Revved up like a deuce"

Bedsheet gift ideas please
Started 12 months ago · Last post 11 months ago ·
I realize that you said other things besides bags.. But I REALLY liked this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJ8BLbrw3xE
Other ideas.. You could take an old corkboard and cut out the cork part, then cover it in the fabric, and put it into a frame..
You could maake... A guitar strap, A pillow, cover a lampshade (But not over the lampshade.. thats a fire hazard!), Wall hangings: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBfVrWMtbio..

Nail polish help!
Started about 1 year ago · Last post 9 months ago ·
If you buff your nails, then clean them with pure acetone, then put a base coat on before.. The polish should stay on.. and also put a top coat on over

How would I go about making this?
Started 12 months ago · Last post 11 months ago ·
Ok.. So basically, I need a dress to wear to a graduation this month. I've actually been planning to make this dress since Jan. but it never happened, but now I have about 2 weeks so I need it to happen NOW.
I've been looking around the internets, and I've found a couple of dresses that I like. They're pretty much the same style and I was hoping if someone would tell me how to make that style dress.
Thanks in advance

Just curious... Disney Pins
Started about 1 year ago · Last post 11 months ago ·
Oh my gosh.. Finally! A fellow trader! Usually when I ask people they look at me like I'm crazy! I love to trade pins, That's usually what the majority of my vacation is spent on. In fact my sisters and I, have actually made friends with the cast members at our hotel, so they know us, and what we're collecting. So when they get their hands on it, they are excited to give it to us.

I'm getting a new rat tomorrow!
Started 12 months ago · Last post 10 months ago ·
I'm Pretty sure that Rats are very social animals, and that they wont have much of a problem.. That being said, there may be some territorial issues with the one who was there first.
If you're really worried, I would say.. And I'm just making this up as I go along, You could start with some sort of a cage divider.. or put the new rat in a separate enclosure and put them together for a small amount of time, like.. 10 minutes and then put it back. Then every day increase that amount of time.
I really don't think that it will be a big deal though :)

Alternative Uses for Sunglasses?
Started 12 months ago · Last post 7 months ago ·
Also! A way to challenge yourself would be to go on the internet and get pictures of really expensive sunglasses, and try to re-create them..

After "Internetting" for a while I only found one thing, I have other ideas but I only found one tutorial
http://apatchworkworld.blogspot.com/2008/05/crafting-with-glasses-tutorial.html
Like I said, I have plenty of other ideas, I just have to figure out how to say them so you can understand them.. (I'm extremely bad at that)

CO+K NAME: Captain Mel
LOCATION: New Jersey, USA
WILLING TO SHIP INTERNATIONALLY: No Thanks
SUPERHEROES I LIKE: I love Black Widow she is my favorite, and Cat Woman.. Buttercup from the power puff girls. I think that kick ass girl superheros are like WAYY cooler than kickass guy superheros. But I do like The Hulk, and Iron Man. I LOVE The avengers, although I cannot stand Thor.
Ps. I am a newbie so someone will have to show me what to do :)
