copycat?

[pinkflamingoluv.livejournal.com]

[like everyone else in the world] i love it when i see something super 'spensive and realize that i am capable of making it [i mean, someone had too, right?] it just makes me kinda happy to see something for $50 and recreate it for $10. anyways, i've been hunting down pricey items that are doable and "drawing" up tutorials for them. [no camera as of yet] they're pretty much for beginning crafters like me - but maybe some people could get ideas from them. ;P i call them "copycats" and i'm hopefully going to start a site and/or community with them because i'm constantly finding new things which make me go "icanmakethatandsavemoney" and making tutorials for them. the pictures are rather large, so i posted a couple here. don't laugh at my, um, "artistic abilities" ;-)

p.s. they're kinda based on how katie from ohmystars.net did her tutorials - sort of. if thats a problem please please let me know. :)

p.p.s. if anyone has found anything similar that they've had the same reaction to, let me know so maybe i can draw up a tutorial!
