Do you know this: when reading it can really strain your hand to hold open your book.
I find the reading ring a great solution!
It is made from Sugru which sounds very interesting.

Well, these yarn wreath ornaments are really cute, aren’t they?
I think that you can use them also as gift tags or coupon Advent calendar.

I find this leaf bowl quite wonderful!
It’s made from plastic leaves but actually it should be possible to make it from real autumn leaves?!
It just won’t be so beautiful for such a long time.
Thank you, Waltraut, for the link to your own leaf bowl from real leaves!
It is most beautiful! :)

The patterned concrete planters are actually easy to make because the pattern comes from the use of different plastic bottles.
A great idea!
I think that you can make this with plaster, too, but it would not be as waterproof and not as heavy as concrete.

These nine hole buttons are completely self-made and I find them a great idea :)
Possibly you can also make them from wood?!

When needleworking you always get these little yarn rests that look so wonderful colourful.
Why not making a cute yarn scrap heart (or also a yarn scrap cat ;-)) from them? :)

I don’t like much the duct tape tote with the silver duct tape, but you can get duct tape also in other colours.
The first duct tape wallet would greatly match it.
Or you make the second duct tape wallet where the fabric is strengthened with duct tape and then you make the tote in the same way as fabric bag with duct tape strengthening.

This elegant feather bracelet has been made from PVC pipe and feathers!
I think that you also can use strong cardboard tube in place from PVC pipe.

When I saw this wonderful abstract jewelry I thought immediately that you could make something similar by cutting beautiful shapes from coloured plastic bottles!
Thanks, Brigitte, for the link!
