Tutorial - How to Repair a Hole in Wicker Furniture

You can use scissors to cut reed to size needed

Tutorial at XOXO Grandma Blog

"Ages ago, I used to work for a high end furniture store that specialized in wicker and rattan. Because of that job, I have some beautiful pieces of wicker furniture in my home. Fast forward to last summer, and while grandchildren were visiting, a certain grandson, who will remain nameless, picked at an area of cracked wicker on one of my white wicker daybeds, even though I begged him to leave it alone. Sadly, he created a lovely hole right in the back of the daybed.  Luckily, pillows can cover this hole but when those pillows are removed, YIKES, it looks bad".... Read more

"I found myself with some of my clean but completely stained white work shirts.  They were yellowed from too many bleach washes and there were other stains that the bleach just couldn't remove.   If you know anything about my crafting you know I like a challenge and the more trashy an item is the more rewarding it is if you can actually make something out of it.  Well these are heavy weight oxford shirts so the fabric itself is still in good condition and since I still had the dye bath from last weeks project sitting in a pot I set out to re-fashion my unsightly old work shirts"....

Tutorial - How to Make a Recycled Coin Can

Quick project made using leftover supplies laying around the house

Tutorial at Borei Design Blog

"Having a loose change jar in my house is an absolute necessity.  It manages to somewhat cut down on all the loose change taken out of pockets and left here there and everywhere all over the house.  It is also really surprising to see how much those stray pennies amount up to after a while if you start to throw them all in one place.  When it's full, I usually just take it and dump it into a coinstar machine at my neighborhood grocery store when going to shop.  By keeping a change jar I end up with a little less mess around the house and a bonus savings off my grocery bill"....

I have more than enough and don’t pick up as much as I used to, but they are still fun to search for during the summer at yard sales.  At one point I had made this, but not sure that I ever shared the pattern.  For the background I chose to use some vintage sheets. Mixed in with the hankies it’s super fun. If you’d like though you could make it with more updated and modern fabric. A plainer fabric might be a good option too, so the hankies show off a little more".... Read more

Tutorial - How to Make Clip on Earrings Wearable

Turn vintage earrings into regular earrings

Tutorial at Plaster & Disaster Blog

"My grandmother didn’t have pierced ears, but she wore earrings every day and had quite a collection. Most of us have probably come across a lot of clip-ons in thrift and vintage stores, and I’m always so intrigued by how fun they are. But man, they’re a pain. How can they be both so tight that they make my ears hurt, and yet so precarious that I’m afraid they’ll fall off at any minute and I’ll lose them? I think I’ve invented a new paradox. Anyway, that’s when it struck me: why don’t I just turn my clip-on earrings into regular old earrings".... Read more

The perfect balance between tart and sweet

Tutorial at Seaman Mom Blog

"I have had such a wicked sweet tooth since I was a little girl. I am going to go ahead and blame it all on my dad! He worked super hard and his one and only vice was to have a piece of cake and a cold soda out of the bottle at the end of the day. That is how we drank our soda back in the good old days! My sister and I would share a piece of whatever delicious cake my mom had made and wash it down with a glass of cold milk. I have also passed this love of all things sugary down to my kids. In order to be healthier, we do not have dessert all the time. I usually save it for the weekend when we are more likely to burn it off! One of our favorites would be my Lemon Sour Cream Pound Cake".... Read more

Tutorial - How to Make a Sudoku Quilt

Tutorial is complete with mistakes, and how to correct them

Tutorial at From My Carolina Home Blog

"This is such an easy quilt to make, but it does take some planning and a lot of care in assembly. Sudoku is a type of puzzle where there are nine nine-patches, and each number or fabric appears only once in a nine-patch, and only once in any row or column across three nine-patches. The great thing about this pattern is it has all straight seams, and all squares.  It is easy enough for a beginner, but does have a bit of challenge to get the pattern correct.  You can make them any size you want, which makes using pre-cuts like layer cakes and jelly rolls possible"....

Tutorial - Non-Slip Sewing Machine Foot Pedal Pad

Keep your foot pedal from sliding as you sew

Tutorial at So Sew Easy Blog

"Sewing gives me a lot of pleasure, but actually sometimes also quite a bit of pain.  I get a pain in my back when I sew for a while, and when I took a good hard look at that recently, I realised that a lot of it may be due to the fact that my foot-pedal leg often starts off in a comfortable position, but the more I sew, the more it extends outwards as I chase my foot-pedal across the floor. I have a tiled floor and the foot pedal seems to slip further and further away throughout my sewing session, until I have to fish it back again.  It’s this sitting with one leg extended, sitting at an angle that I’m convinced in a back-breaker for me.  So I set out to solve this dilemma and sew a non-slip sewing machine foot pedal pad"....

Tutorial at Purple Hues and Me Blog

"As a child I loved May 1st and all the fun activities held on that day at school.  I especially loved dressing in white, dancing and wrapping the maypole. Unfortunately, I don't think today's kids experience any of those fun activities.  I just recently learned of another spring tradition from the past - of making baskets, filling them with fresh spring flowers or treats and anonymously placing them on neighbors' doorsteps in celebration of spring.   I like the idea of making baskets, filling them with flowers, fresh or not, and giving them to friends and loved ones to spread the joys of spring. For this, I have an easy adorable basket to make - one that can get kids or adults involved by helping weave their very own May Day basket using foam sheets, poster board, hot glue or super glue and scissors"....
