Heart Elbow Patches | Honestly WTF

Two things I love about this DIY - one, it’s great for Valentine’s Day because it’s not too OTT Valentine-sy but still sweet (and you can still wear it after Valentine’s Day without looking cray-cray!) plus it means you get to try out felting. Felting is a great stress reliever - you basically just stab the felt over and over until it’s… felted. This would be adorable for a kid’s jumper too, maybe with star elbow patches on a blue top?

ps-imadethis: Stand out as an Icon of Style.  Get inspired by the epitome of innovation, sleekness, technology and sportiness. Follow the Mercedes-Benz iconic road map for luxury and celebrate style with this DIY fashion project.  Inspired by iconic essentials and unique modern design , we created a j’amazing braided headband using Mercedes-Benz leather and layered in texture,  to top it off.  After all, it is Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week and we want to cruise around in style. To create, cut a piece of leather approximately 1/2” wide and 2.5-3 ft long.  Add a bright cord (or ribbon) and ball chain.  Knot all three materials together onto a hair elastic and braid.  Once you have a braid long enough to wrap around your head, knot off on the other end of the hair elastic.  Be sure to pull tight to make sure it’s secure. Snip the ends and you’re ready to brave a bold braided accessory!

scissorsandthread: Prada Inspired Clutch | Refinery 29 I know some people think that luxury items like handbags and clothing are a waste of money, but one day I would love to own something by a high fashion brand! It’s not just the name - it’s the quality of the workmanship too (and OK, the name!) Until the day I have a spare $1000 to blow on something extravagant though, I’m going to go the DIY route, just like with this pretty jewel encrusted clutch! There’s nothing quite like a bit of faux-bling to dress up a LBD, and when it’s this cheap to re-create, why wouldn’t you want one of your own?!

scissorsandthread: Chocolate Dipped Panda Gummy Bears | The Cheese Thief These are almost too cute to eat! Almost. These were done by dipping the little bears in white chocolate and then ‘painting’ on the features using cocoa powder. Apparently this was quite difficult to build up… but as TCT suggested, it would be a great use for edible ink pens! I first saw these on this website and thought… cute, but what would you use them for!? This would be perfect! Or if you’re feeling brave, you could try dipping into dark melted chocolate. Any way you do it, I doubt these cute little guys would be around long…

truebluemeandyou: DIY ”52 Reasons” Book. Continuing my posts of really cheap but  thoughtful gifts. Made out of a pack of cards using a glue stick. Before I saw this, I had just tried this with Mod Podge - disaster - the cards curled up and it was a big mess. Seen at Little Gray Fox here. More photos and where it was originally posted (I think) at Craftster here.
