Gotta have Push Pins…

 
I’ve been using straight pins on my bulletin boards …well… they’re not real bulletin boards. Someone gave me a box of ceiling tiles and right away I thought of using them on the wall for regular office stuff plus hang up all my jewelry sets...
But pins are tough on fingers though…That’s when I thought of the spent casings I saved from some target practice (honey & friends)… I just figured (like always) someday they could be used for something…So…
I used a baking soda & corn starch dough mixture (1), filled each casing(2), placing a pin in the center, packing lightly around the pin with a small skewer (3), let dry (4),a drop of Mod Podge and waala! Homemade push pins…Much better than the pins! These can also be painted. and clear coated for color, I just like the natural look…

Just in Time for Easter

I thought it would be just the right time to share these cute little necklace sets since I made them specifically for Easter...I was thinking they would be so cute on a little girl but I liked them for me too...

Just got Back...

Well I really never went anywhere (LOL)...I just have'nt been posting (like I'm supposed to). I had a blog I was using quite often (Windows Live) and they closed it down but not without letting us upload to WordPress (pretty nice set up) but that added more troubles (links were gone, pics messed up,etc...) So I've been updating that one and now trying to get this one straight. I am still Nut's over reusing (anything in anyway) and have a guzillion (is that a word?) ideas but had to stop actually making anything (camera went caputs) until I get a new camera.I do have some project ideas to share, here, so keep in touch!
