If you search Glass Cutting in YouTube you can get some pretty good tutorials for it... but you kinda have to feel around for how you wanna do it and what is the most comfortable... As for the Base i used a really cheap flimsy mask from any party or craft store and cut the eyes and outside to the exact shape i wanted. The base needs to be able to move though because it cannot stay that flat and smooth.
Thanks :) well, no, it isn't as comfy as a snuggie but it isn't uncomfortable either. it stretches and breathes really well. It is just a little cold whn you first put it on :)
omg i love this. When i was little my parents got divorced and i remember how hard it was. I was 5 and an only child. I remember i felt like a ping-pong ball. this will make it easier for her for sure.
Hey! no i did not take down the swim suit how-to. But it is messed up. I noticed just a little while ago and I think i am going to have to redo all the steps :/ sorry, but i will try and get them up soon and then send you a message to let you know it is done. I guess it was a glitch or something...
ok no problem. give me a day or so and i will make a vid. it is kinda hard to explain. this way you can actually see it. :) if you do make one you have to send me pictures. No one else has (that i know of) used my pattern yet.
Hey, Thanks for the comment on my soda tab bathing suit top. For one like you mentioned it will cost $70. Once complete I will add it my new etsy store with uploaded pictures of it for you to see. It will be reserved so only you can make he purchase. Also on etsy you have the ability to use paypal for more security. Let me know if you are interested. If the price is wrong let me know and maybe we can work something out.
her purses sell in little shops in chicago as well as her etsy store. And i got to say i like your a lot more. you should make a purse kind of like that one to show it off!
I want to give Love From Hetty & Dave to my best friend and soul mate. Because I am leaving home very soon to follow my dreams. I would not be going if it wasn't for his support and I want him to know that even with the distance he still has my heart.
acacia a.-> There are bottoms to these, and in a few different styles. I didn't put them in the same HOW-TO because the top is already complicated enough :). I most likely will put up some HOW-TO's for the different styles, but i need to get some pictures and stuff first. I will send you a message when they are up :)
You can always play around with your own bottoms that match and sew tabs in different places to make it more of your creation and design.
If anyone else wants a HOW-TO for the bottoms let me know and i will send you an update when i get the chance to get it up.
Thank you so much! I checked out your blog, you have some cool stuff. I need a dress form very badly and have been meaning to make one of my own. Yours turned out great!!! There is a how-to on here on how to do it using paper tape.. is that what you used... and if not could you post a how-to. I am trying to find the best method.
NO! Good Question. The tab is pure aluminum while the can has various metals that's why the tabs are collected for different charities and such (one reason). Aluminum corrodes but it does not rust. Rust refers only to iron and steel corrosion.
"Aluminum is actually very prone to corrosion. However, aluminum corrosion is aluminum oxide, a very hard material that actually protects the aluminum from further corrosion. Aluminum oxide corrosion also looks a lot more like aluminum, so it isn't as easy to notice as rusted iron."
OMG! THAT ROX!!!! i wish i could have done that. Yours looks so good too. Nice work. I would like to see pictures of some of the others if you have any.
YES! and that picture only shows some of them. lol my collecting is getting a little out of hand i must admit... I think i might use some to make a skirt or two.
LOVE IT! i am a scarf maniac! sooo glad you put these up. every time i go to the goodwill i have to buy another one. so far i have around 30. they make a great curtain.... hmmmm..... *runs off to make a how-to*
yes, you are supposed to actually drink it, though like "Kapt'n Toasterkopf" wrote above, it is awesome just to look at. It tastes very good (after you get past the "ew i don't want to drink something that looks like that" stage), to me anyway. It isn't at all lumpy or anything like that. The look is merely an illusion because the two liquids don't mix. no chemical reaction takes place and you don't have to chew anything to get it down.
umm i think of it as a "cream saver" candy, if you have ever had that...but not because it is an alcoholic drink... lol does that make sense? It is hard to explain, but the two do not actually "MIX" that is how the shot looks like that. so it is actually like taking one after the other in a way.
OMG LOVE IT!!!! i saw this on threadbanger as well but yours are way better. i have been planing to make a pair. I was thinking about incorporating it into a Halloween costume.
Boo ~ if you don't like stencils then why don't you do the entire thing as a patch. all you would have to do is cut it out. pin a print out of the picture on top of your fabric. it would make it much simpler.
~DIS.AR.RAY
thanks! the headband has never pulled my hair before, but I have VERY straight hair! I think if you use a thicker yarn then you wont need to put fabric behind it... just a thought. let me know how it turns out! I would love to see it.
this is great!! there are so many kinds of bottle caps too. Me and my boy friend are making a bunch using 3 different colors of caps and having our own picture poker chips.
I am having a really hard time keeping them round though... any tips?
