Pretty Pink Bows and Crimson Apples...
I've finally done a new DIY project!!! I got the idea...here. Instead of doing the double bow I did a single bow(I guess that's what you call it). I had a little bit of clay left from one bow so I made a "delicious" crimson apple ;).

Two Loose Screws...
You might say I have a few screws loose, but I have finally thought of a DIY project that I think is worth sharing and it's SUPER easy too! Screw earings! I mean...uhrr...earings made out of screws...:)
What you'll need:
![]() |
2 of these funky little sharpish metal thingys...aka: SCREWS |
![]() |
2 twisted wire needles |
![]() |
1 pair of (in my case, RUSTY) beading pliers |
![]() |
A pair of earring hooks (that means 2 of this little baby) |
And lastly:
![]() |
Nailpolish! |
![]() |
Slightly bend the wire around the screw. |
![]() |
Now bend it with the pliers. |
![]() |
See if it fits snugly around the screw... |
![]() |
and if it does, start twisting it toward the sharp point. |
![]() |
Now bend the loop upward so that it's straight (trust me, you do not want a skew earring!) |
![]() |
They should look like this...remeber to turn them into earings by adding earring hooks! To find out how to do that, click here. Drumroll please... VOILA! |
![]() |
You can leave yours unpainted or give them a pop of color with your favourite polish. Let them dry and then... HAPPY WEARING! |
P.S.: The coiling (twisting the wire needles around) takes practice to perfect, so don't get down in the dumps if you "screw up";)
----The End----

My first project: dip-dyed tee.
I've wanted to dip-dye a t-shirt for so long and now I've finally done it! I followed the instructions on Wit & Whistle. Click here to see them. So if you want spice up a boring tee, dip-dying is a great way to do that! Here is a pic of my tee...

Love DIY
Hi there!
I love creating things. Instead of buying things, I sometimes make them myself or customize store-bought items. Sometimes they even turn out better than products from the shops. From t-shirts to smoothies to jewellery and loads of other stuff, I have done a lot of DIY projects, and I have decided to start sharing my projects with you. So hopefully you will be inspired by my blogging and create along with me!
Au revoir!
