I found the instructions for Q-Tip snowflakes utterly funny, perhaps you’ll like it, too :)
Besides you can use them as (tree) ornaments ;-)

Concerning unikatissima
Somebody sent my today an email (thank you very, very much!) that the comment function doesn’t work anymore at unikatissima.
Now it should work again – I’m counting on you ;-))
And please, if you find more problems at unikatissima send me a short email (you can find the address e.g. via the about me page).
Thank you much in anticipation

Concerning unikatissima
You may have seen it already, I changed the layout of the blog :)
In the right navigation bar you can still find a lot of informtion about the blog, but hopefully better organized now and made to show and hide (simply click 
or 
, resp.).
The most important innovations there are the sections
- Completely up to date where I can leave important news for you,
- Recent english comments where you can see the most recent five comments of the english unikatissima blog and a link to all english comments and
- Recent german comments where you can find the most recent five comments from the german unikatissima blog.
This may come handy because they give frequently interesting suggestions that you should know about, too ;-))
The left navigation bar is kept unchanged.
And I added a menu bar at the top – that is the preparation on what will come but possibly is already of help to you now ;-)
I wish you continued fun with unikatissima

Fantasy Computer Frame
I have a most ordinary and totally boring beige-gray computer screen – perhaps I should do something about?! ;-))
I don’t like the ‘stone look’ though, I’d prefer something baroque-y ;-))

Knitted Video
When I saw the knitted video for the first time, I was sitting there with my jaw dropped.
That didn’t look very beautiful (me, not the video! ;-)).
Anyhow: I’m toootally amazed about.
And I won’t never, ever try to knit such a thing by myself ;-))
(I know, I know, it is machine knitted.
Even so ;-))

Make Your Own Font
Sometimes it would be great, if you could enter your own hand writing by keyboard, e.g. when creating greeting cards.
You have the chance now: you print a form, enter the appropriate letters, scan the sheet and upload it at fontcapture.
Then you should get back your handwriting as font.
I didn’t let make it yet because my handwriting is so botched at the moment that I don’t want to get it ;-))
As a matter of principle you should be able to ‘put a lot on the keyboard’, even little sketches.
I really have to try it on occasion!
DIY Storage
What about a really individual storage solution?
Simple, expressive and easily to be adapted to your needs.
Or something like this ;-)
Anyway it’s different than buying, isn’t it? ;-))
I can imagine how this ‘shelf’ would look hanging directly beside the juice rack ;-))

3-D Sugar Sculpture
I find this idea of making palm trees from candy really great again!
She suggests in her instruction to use the technique for ‘suckable’ Christmas wreaths.
Then it should be possible to make edible Halloween wreaths as well?! ;-)
If you want to have other shapes than leaves you can use the home-built 3-D printer ;-)
And as addition to the wreaths you can make the candy shot glasses.
I think that it would be as well interesting to try the special shapes from aluminium foil or the positive moulds from pebbles.
And somehow the whole thing should be possible to be made with chocolade instead of candy, just as the edible stucco, don’t you think so?
Well, somehow this all would be very interesting, wouldn’t it? ;-)

Rack from Clothes Hangers
I simply don’t know why I’m so about racks at the moment, especially because I don’t need any.
They seem to be extra ‘susceptible’ to creative treatment ;-))
I, for one find the rack from clothes hangers fun :)

Coffee Filter Pompoms
Don’t they look beautiful?
These pompoms are all made from coffee filters – and it seems to be quite easy.
In addition I’ve found a tutorial for a necklace from coffee filters which I also found great, even though I’d prefer it as a pin ;-)
But I wouldn’t know where to put such decorations ;-))
