CD Coasters


Do you like shiny or round stuff - or both? If yes, you'll probably like this! Take a couple of old CD's or DVDs and make this! Get beads, glitter, gems, fabrics, markers, and/or paint and start crafting! I used a hot glue gun-of course! and cover the CD with a piece of fabric or leave blank for shiny look! Decorate, only the rim, with any 3D objects. You can also use a stamp for a flower in the middle or something. Otherwise use markers and just color/draw on your CD! Enjoy, hope you had fun making these!

Letter Rocks


I got this idea from somewhere( I forgot) but it was originally a huge rock as a paper weight which had a word on it. So, I made this! I got small rocks which would hold a letter from my name. I decoupaged it with tissue paper and white Elmer's glue. Then, with a sharpie just wrote the letters and put them on a shelf!

Bottle Cap Pin Cushions!

Hey! Small things are so cute and so that's why I made these! BOTTLE CAP PIN CUSHIONS! With fabric or felt and a little stuffing, you can make one of these! Items needed;
  • bottle cap
  • hot glue gun or thread and needle
  • fabric
  • little embellishment(optional)
Get your bottle cap(clean) and cut a strip of fabric for the circumference and either glue it on or just wait to sew to other pieces.Glue(if sewing sew circle along edge with strip)the bottom circle on cap. Next, lightly stuff the bottle cap and get a circle for the top. Now glue edges or sew. If you want, make an apple or get something to put on the top's middle. I make a little apple on left and sewed it on. You could just glue it on though. And, you're done!
