Love this idea.
Etsy Nerdy Baby ABC Flashcards. Sold by electricboogaloo at Etsy here. Really good idea. via A Bird in the Hand Art here.
DIY Photo Collages. Winter Wonderland created using Flickr alphabet letter from Leo Reynolds (find the letters and numbers here). Also, another huge group on Fickr: the One Letter Group here. Use Picassa to collage all the letters together. Wait for a poster sale (like the 40% off posters from CVS), frame it in an inexpensive frame and you have a cheap but thoughtful gift.
Other examples:
I made a pink themed “Nettie Est. 1995”, 1995 being her birth year here. She uses it as her screensaver and loves it.
I made a collage out of fiery letters in Nir Tober’s Flickr Photostream here.
The purpose of my blog has become to catalog unique crafts that I truly love and would do myself. I love the look of handmade crafts - handmade in a good way. My crafts tend to be doable and inexpensive - because I have either done them myself or intend on doing them. "Doable" doesn't mean "simple" crafts, but rather crafts that have tutorials that are clear and easy to understand. *I will never copy an entire tutorial from any blogger because that takes away page views from their site and 99.99% of the time it violates their copyright policy. I also will not reblog a post if the entire tutorial is published without the permission of the original blogger. I will cite, if known, sources for my posts because I believe in giving credit to the photographer/designer/blogger. Also, to act like something is your own idea, when it isn't, is just wrong.
