Decoupage question

[reebert.livejournal.com]

I would like to decoupage something onto a plastic handle of a kitchen utensil. Does decoupage work on plastic? Would the utensil still be able to be used/washed or would it just be something to look at afterwards? Thanks for any help!

T's for two and two for T's

Josh and I jsut spent the whole night making his band T's. each one is original. Mostly becuase a) we get the t's from salvation army to save a buck and b)we're too interested in seeing what happens to stick to some strick printing regiment.

Last minute Valentines

[loveisagypsy.livejournal.com]

I covered soup cans with paper mache inside and out. Painted them white, then covered with a neon paint. I'm off to the store now to get Red Hots, Boston Baked Beans, Spree and SweetTarts to fill them with. I'll probably decopauge hearts or names on them if I have time, but they aren't too shabby just plain :-) Cheap gift that will last forever and can be used for anything!!

i made a new hat! :)

[strange-charm.livejournal.com]

it only took me an hour last night to do it. i used some pretty colinette pont 5 yarn that i found (it's hard for me to find it in nice colors...) and new shiny bamboo needles i picked up. this is my 3rd hat, and my past one for now, because i want to make a slytherin scarf very badly, and i am DYING to learn how to make socks.

( it kinda looks valentine-y. pooh. )

i am so in love with this hat. my deal for people that want them now is that they pick out and buy the yarn, and i'll make it for them. seems fair enough! :)

valentine's day si tomorrow and i have done NOTHING AT ALL for my girlfriend. i know. im a bad girlfriend. we are super poor right now so we were supposed to make each other stuff--she works @ Godiva, so chocolate isnt really a good gift from me since we always have it around...i have no idea what to do..but i DO have markers, pens, paper, glue, confetti, stickers, and random bits of fabric...i feel like MacGyver...

Looking For A Sewing Pattern...

[emanonx.livejournal.com]

I am looking for a pattern to create a 'knitting needle holder'. I do not have a picture, but I am sure there is somebody out there who knows what I am talking about. They are a piece of cloth, with pockets inside for all the needles, and you can roll it up and tie it into a little tube to keep all your needles together. It looks relatively easy to make, and I am just curious if there are any patterns out there.

Thanks!

Cookies!

I made some conversation heart cookies for my friends since I'm broke... I thought they turned out kind of cute, and I'm feeling like shit from eating so much frosting (yak). But anyway...
