Alright, so I have a very olive toned skin and I am looking for a good foundation (preferably powder) as well as one of those snazzy cover up sticks (damn pimples). I always find that the large percentage of makeup out there that is for lighter skin has a pink base, over an...

Can anyone tell me how to sew thick fabric with a sewing machine? My thread keeps piling up and getting jammed inside my machine. I've tried changing the stitch size.....Doesn't work at any size. And I'm not using a decorative stitch.

I'd LOVE to give this a go, but I have no idea where to start, or what to buy. Has any one got any tips or links to point me in the right direction please. xx

Okay, so I really want to fix up pretty much all of my jeans, but I'm not sure what kind of stitch to use. I'm worried that a straight stitch won't be strong enough and I'm not really all that sure about a zig zag. I'm really new to sewing though so I don't really know what's...

I usualy bi-pass lunchtimes as I just don't know what to eat and can't be bothered making a cooked meal so I want you guys to help me come up with things to fill a sandwich, torilla, pita pocket, foccacia, whatever really! Don't worry if you repeat the same ingredient, eg- ham...

I'm looking for a pattern/how-to to make a baby doll dress. Not the kind for a baby or a doll. The kind that people like Twiggy and Baby Spice used to wear. I got the most Fabulous shoes to go with it. Every time I search for it, it either brings up Dolls (like Barbie's and...

This weeks special has been a Red Onion & Olive Tart: Basically you fry up loads of chopped red onions. Roll out some puff pastry and mould it in to a circle (like you would a pizza base), spread the top with onions, add some olives and cook in the oven for 20 minutes....

Has anyone ever sold the crafts that you have made in a store on consignment? There is a store near my house which sells handmade things on consignment and I am thinking of selling some jewelry that I have made and perhaps making some bags that I can sell as well. I was just...

I have an indoor herb garden and I have snipped a bunch of the plants and am now drying the herbs. I have mainly mint, rosemary, and lavendar. Does anyone have any ideas about what I could do with all of these dried herbs? The only thing that I can think of to make are those...

I've recently become addicted to handmaking paper - it's just so awesome! But i'm not sure how to make it really thin... you know, like the paper that comes from nepal that i guess is made out of some kind of reed? I'm going for that thin sort, but the stuff i make always...

They're so much better than sandwiches. This week, instead of opting for boring old bread for my sandwiches, I picked tortilla bread so that I could make quesadillas. Today I'm having them filled with cheese and quorn chicken slices.

I want to make another drawing tutorial... Ideas about what I can make?

Post all your unique back to school items that you have created. SO far i made a trendy pencil case. And a wrist-let bag

I was going to buy Fimo, since thats what everyone here seems to use, but there was stuff right next to it, half the price, called "premo" so I bought that. Cheap knock off brands work well for me, so I went with it. Right now, I'm baking it at 275, and I'm making little...

I've really got into making necklaces at the mo, but I can't seem to find coloured necklace chains anywhere, maybe i'm searching for the wrong thing. I've found some on ebay but people are trying to charge 2 for a metre and then 3 for postage, is this too much, or is this the...

Okay, so, I am not really cheap, I just don't have any money to buy things with. That is part of the reason I recycle things, because its more cost affective [the other reason, obviously, environment], but I've recently upped the anty [I have NO clue how to spell that] on my...

I'm curious about where you get your inspirations & also who inspires you. Post pics if you want.

Hi everyone! I've been working on a felt scarf recently, with the same idea as this one: http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/felt_necklace_and_ring_set The only problem is, after I sew the squares together, they come apart very easily. It's broken a number of times within an...

I've been meaning to do this for ages. They were corduroy pants that were so soft, I couldn't part with them when they blew out. I used a method I found on Threadbangers where you use one leg as a flap and the other turns into the strap....

I've got quite long hair at the moment, like this (I think you can just about see how long it is here) [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v619/Miss-Ann-Thropy/me.jpg[/IMG] But I've always had long hair and I'm wondering whether to cut it! It used to be a lot longer than...
