Tea Dyed Doily Scarf

flickr myauntdebbie - Doily Scarf

I must confess that in fact I like to crochet doilies – but I don’t want to have them, because I don’t have a clue about what to do with them ;-).
That’s perhaps the reason why I like so much putting together things from squares or the like ;-))

Well, now I can make me such a doily scarf ;-)
I think that you can very well hand-dye it with tea or coffee.

Colour Combinations

kris's color stripes Colours

A good many times I need colour combinations for all sorts of things and it is diffcult for me to select colours so, that I like them.
kris’s color stripes is a great help because she takes photos and ‘extracts’ a colour palette from them.
If you’re not interested in the photos to the colour combinations you can go directly to kris’s other blog where you find ‘only’ the colour combinations and where you can let search all colour combinations for one colour (e.g. orange).

Self-made Fabric Print Stamp Pad

jezze Fabric Print Stamp Pad

Somewhen I also want to try fabric printing and then the instruction on how to make a fabric print stamp pad will come handy.

I think that it should also be usable as ‘normal’ ink pad, I should try this sometime.

Homemade Paint Recipes

unikatissima Homemade Paint Recipes

Via one of my most preferred check-this-out blogs art for housewives I found a website with homemade paint recipes.
I liked best that they are made with stuff from household and tempera paint or food colouring.

On the photo you see some of the ingredients I already gathered, but unfortunately I don’t have no tempera paint nor food colouring at home.
Still to purchase :)
