Bicycle Wheel Clock | Thistlewood Farms
How cool is this clock?! I love that it’s sitting on a chalkboard wall with the roman numerals painted beside it. Pretty simple to make (though there is some cutting/drilling!) it has a big impact visually.

Easy Watercolour Portraits | Grow Creative
I swear, it really is easy! Using your computer and a photo editing program, you make a black and white silhouette which you then use to fill in with your watercolour. Such a clever way to create a piece of art. And of course, you don’t have to use family pictures - wouldn’t it be sweet to do of a family pet?! You could really do any silhouette you wanted. Perfect Christmas present idea!
Suitcase Side Table | By Wilma
My family is going on a Op-Shop-Hop this weekend (we are a very odd family!) so I will be keeping an eye out for a ton of bits and pieces to makeover. I will now also be keeping an eye out for some suitcases because I love this little DIY - because you not only have a cute vintage sidetable, but a great place to keep your phone books, address books, and other telephone bits and pieces!

DIY Tie Dyeing Tights on the Cheap Tutorial. You can experiment dyeing cheap nylons with Kool Aid or food dye with vinegar. Tutorial from The Work Is Getting To Me here. *People on Pinterest have been making the rudest comments about the red tights (shocking) - but the joke is on them because Xandy has a great sense of humor and writes:
“Red dye only kind of looks like a terrible skin disease.” She also says of the pink and mint colored tights, “This is how they turned out. If unicorns wore tights…”
