DIY Steampunk Thumb Tacks Tutorial and Printable from The Graphics Fairy here. I rarely post thumb tack tutorials because most of them take to long and I have other things to do with my time (the exception being the thumb thumb tacks here). But these are cheap and easy to make (and we can debate the “Steampunk” title) and I’m filing them under truebluemeandyou.tumblr.com/tagged/manly-gifts

truebluemeandyouDIY Vlieger & Vandam Inspired Guarden Angel Leather Clutch Tutorial. One fashion blogger who saw this on my site just wrote that this was the best knockoff ever. And I have to agree. The possibilities are endless.

DIY Vlieger & Vandam Inspired Guarden Angel Leather Clutch Tutorial from Passions for Fashion here. This is not a really easy DIY, but the instructions are really good. I used Chrome to translate from Danish to English, but in the comments section she has an English translation. I would strongly suggest reading the comments’ section for advice on the thickness of leather and note the temps are in Celsius not Fahrenheit so 85 degrees Celsius is 185 degrees Fahrenheit. Very cool DIY project. Top Photo: Vlieger & Vandam FW’12/13 as seen here, Bottom Photo: DIY from Passions for Fashion. *For more knockoffs go here: truebluemeandyou.tumblr.com/tagged/knockoff

DIY Harry Potter Monopoly Game from Design in Technology here. For how to make the board, cards, etc… go here. For the printable files (board, spells, potions, properties etc…) go here.  *Read the comments on each post for additional tips and tricks for making this game. This must have truly been a labor of love and is so well done. This is obviously not for commercial use so please don’t sell it. First seen at Geek crafts here.

DIY Rose and Vanilla Soap Recipe and Tutorial from Henry Happened here. I normally don’t post lots of soaps because they require too many specialized ingredients, but this recipe is different.

DIY Easy Mohair Wrapped Vase Tutorial from Carolyn’s Homework here. I don’t post many DIY vases because I’m not fond of most of them. But I really like the softness and texture of this one.
