sculpey Glaze & things

[hiswifeylove.livejournal.com]

I bought glaze awhile ago for my little polymer clay creations. It says to use a brush and I did, but after it dries its hard and washing doesn't do. Should I wash right after I use? Or is there a specific brush to use?

Another Q: I stick eye pins (I think that's what its called) in and let them bake inside the cake. When its done cooling, it doesn't stick to the clay! Putting super glue is very messy... Any suggestions?


One more question (sorry about ALL the questions): Does anyone know where to buy the top hanging part on cellphone charms? I've googled it and it just shows me a bunch of charms and things I don't want!

Ok, I promise this is the LAST question!! What site is the best to purchse pony beads?? I've googled and I don't want to buy a bunch and realize I've gotten ripped off.

Ok, that's all. THANK YOU for anything and everything ♥

I want to thank you all so much for helping me with my last post!
I will definitely post some pictures when I am completed with this project. :D

I have another question, haha.. but totally unrelated –
I think someone posted in a comment here, or maybe it was somewhere on craftster, but it was a website were you either typed in a URL or uploaded your file and it blew it up to poster size (or just a fairly larger size) for free.. does anyone know what I am talking about? I want to blow some pictures up to a nice size to decorate my dorm walls because they are nakie and boring and I can’t make holes in the wall. >>

freeform stitch

[http://users.livejournal.com/_fortress/]

I have been using a sewing machine for quite some time, yet I have only used it to do straight stitches... like along an edge. I see people on TV doing some kind of free-form stitching..... like they can move the fabric around in circles and stuff to make patterns, without the machine pulling the fabric in one direction. (Hope that makes sense). Is this a standard setting? Can someone tell me how to do it? I have a Singer Touch&Sew 648 if that makes a difference.

Hey all, new poster here!
I'm alli lou, I knit, quilt, embroider, and have started making soap (yay!) and am excited to find this community! Last night I finished the top of a quilt I've been working on, just have to add the batting and the bottom layer (which I think will be a green to match the greens in the top). Hope you like it!

Mad Hatter's Tea Party

[sepheri.livejournal.com]

I am planning an Alice in Wonderland themed party for my birthday in a month's time and I wondered if anyone else here had thrown a similar stlye of party before?

I have a few ideas, cards as bunting, cupckes that say 'EAT ME' and lables for drinks that say 'DRINK ME', croquet on the lawn and chess for people to play and I am thinking of making my birthday cake in thhe shape of a mushroom with the caterpiller on top.

Does anyone have any other ideas?

I don't want it too Disney-like, I like things darker than that so I've been looking at American McGee's Alice and the original drawings.

I'm rather excited!

My latest mice from a free pattern on crochetville.org/forum
I can't figure out something cute for eyes.  Tried buttons and beads and I can't find something to make their personalities shine.  Any ideas?

Thank you all :)

I just found these marble coasters in the memories section which look amazing. Except the link is broken. Anyone know anything about these? Any other links? I did google it but all that came up were ugly imitation marble coasters.

I was just wondering if anyone had ever run into a pattern for a dress that looked similar to this? http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&category%5Fname=Dresses&product%5Fid=2030700204&Page=1#


I sat down and tried to make a pattern for it myself, but it's much to hard. I thought a vintage pattern would be good, but I don't know where I'd be able to get hold of one!
