DIY Feather, Chain and Charm Hair Clip Tutorial from Teahab here. I like this tutorial because it isn’t something I’ve seen at local stores and it can be customized in so many ways.

DIY Nail Polish Bobby Pin Necklaces. There are certain blogs I love because they give credit to other bloggers who came up with really similar ideas earlier, or say something like, “This idea isn’t original and lots of DIY blogs have done it in the past (X,Y and Z), but this is my take on it.” And then there are blogs that don’t.

DIY Polymer Clay Holiday Themed Hair Pins Tutorial from Happy Hour Crafts here. Besides finding out there are hair pins with bails on them at the craft store, what am I most happy about? That Adrianne always puts strong warnings about not mixing kitchen utensils and polymer clay… ever. Thank you Adrianne for posting this warning because the (HUGE) blogs that do not, and run photos of rolling pins (really, use a cheap small clay roller) next to polymer clay are doing their readers a huge disservice.

Why I Have a Tumblr Blog
My blog is my own personal catalog of DIY crafts that I love and would do myself. I strive to find fresh and unique DIY crafts from around the world from big and small blogs. I try and post projects that will not turn out to be "homemade ugly" or waste my readers' money. I always link back to original sources and credit/links are always given on my blog. Also, expect the unexpected.
