Oooo! I’m a sucker for anything cross stitch related, so I’m really drawn to the idea of this iPhone 4g DIY Case which is customizable to your heart’s content!

Forts!

I used to love to build forts with my cousins when we would take trips to Jekyll Island. Recently, I’ve had forts of the brain for a few weeks now, for no apparent reason. It tickled me to see that Booooooom recently had a Where the Wild Things Are fort competition. (You can view the winners here.) It’s too bad I didn’t know about this sooner, I would have loved to have entered!

Tiny Crown Tutorial
A friend of ours is having a Tiny Hat Party this weekend and for it, Jack and I made mini crowns. I had some much fun working on making our own crowns (I will post pictures of the set later),I wanted to see just how small I could make them. Thought it would be fun to put together a tutorial of me putting it all together!

First thing’s first: supplies. Glue gun, bottle cap, thin foam sheet (in my case white), red and white felt, tape, scissors and/or X-Acto, gold spray paint, pencil, black marker, decorations! (jems, thin chains, etc.)

Step 1: Start creating the outer “leaf” sections. You can either drawn lightly, with a pencil, on the thin foam itself or make a template on a peice of paper and trace it onto the foam.

Step 2: Cut out the pieces and spray both sides with gold spray paint.

Step 3: While your waiting for the “leaves” to dry you can move on to the base. Cut out the red felt in a circle slightly bigger than the bottle cap, so that it can cover all the edges. Hot glue gun it. I recommend starting to glue the outside first, then pulling and gluing the edges in.

Step 4: Hot glue the “leaves” into the base, as evenly spaced as possible. Set aside for a sec.

Step 5: Take a bit of tape and roll it into a ball. Make it so it will fill the interior of the base nicely. Glue on some nice fuzzy white fleece and fleck with a black marker to create some faux ermine fur.

Step 6: Glue fur ball (hehe) into place.

Step 7: Now, glue each of the “leaf” tips to the center of the ball. Work with the pairs across from each other; glue two down, then the next two on top of those. I topped it all off with a little gem to hid the seam.

Step 8: Add the decorations!

Final Results!

Jack & Jules
Once upon a time a California boy met a Georgia girl in New York. They didn't get along, at first. But, little by little, they fell in love. Today, they are happily living in Santa Cruz, CA and still very much in love, running an Etsy print shop and a branding & design business together.
