Literal Video Version

Today is Christmas Eve where there’s not a lot of time for crafting, therefore I wanted to present something that I found most hilarious: the literal music video versions.
There they change the lyrics to describe what’s happening in the video.
I had a lot of fun with :)) although I’ve never been interested in music videos.
My personal highlight is Meat Loaf: Literal Video Version (Anything For Love) – so wonderfully crazy ;-)))
(To avoid misunderstandings: I really like Meat Loaf and Anything For Love!
And this video, too ;-)))

By the way I found the video via an article in Spiegel where they present more of these videos.

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 ;-))

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 :)

A nice reader send me the link to the cardborad stampede.
She told me that she has made a horse already following the tutorial and that you can even let gallop the horse over your desk when you use a photo holder in place of let them go up the wall.

Many thanks again, I find the horses really great!

Somehow I really love painted shoes and so I was thrilled about the tutorial for self customized sneakers.
As much fun as spraypainted shoes ;-)

I think that I won’t do this because first I have too much shoes already and second they somehow don’t match my style, but who knows? ;-)

Once I found the Lah-Di-Dah Bra purse at craftster.org – what a funky idea!

Since then I always wanted to make a bra purse, but I don’t use no purses, because I always need backpacks. Imagine the bra! ;-))

But I collected links (see below) on how to make a bra purse anyhow – perhaps I’ll make a bra purse eventually ;-)

Nail File Envelope

Nail File Envelope

Once I found instructions on how to make a nail file envelope, which I embraced, because me too, I never have such a file when I need it and I don’t like to search ‘free’ nail files in the depths of my bag.

I’m not much of a stamper (although I would like to be ;-)), so I made them with my own with markers and a little moist coloured tissue papers, I collaged them from magazines and I made them from doodled coffee-dyed newspaper (see second photo).

Nail File Envelope Because I own 5 cm wide clear packaging tape (a little less than 2 inches), I made the envelopes slender enough to cover them completely with the tape. This way they are sturdier and more robust in the depths of my bag ;-)
The nail file envelopes are a lot of fun to make and a very good giveaway at nearly everybody. Even men took them voluntarily! ;-)
Most fun for everybody is, when I present the whole range of my nail file envelopes and everybody can select their own.
