Another modification to the X-Arcade trackball (stand-alone, discontinued) controller. These are GroovyGameGear's PRIME buttons, which have a shorter action than Suzo-Happ buttons. I modified them so they would match the TurboTwist spinner on the right, and provide a contrasting color scheme on the left.

make sure pilot holes match up.
make sure that the belt rack-to-wall mount is level.
drill more pilot holes through the drawer slide to the wall. use longer round head screws for stud mounted areas.

My newest tutorial, making a Russian-style tinsel kokoshnik/crown with metallic pipe cleaners and a headband!
I made the second ray by lining one end against the first, then bending it back up.
See my blog for more details.
This chair is almost finished...2 coats of paint are on this now & it looks far better than it did before we bought it at that sale (at that time if they had been mine I might have thrown them away.) The shair beside it is also painted in the fig tree dark brown & will be accented by the same red seat cusion for the bamboo couch & the brown chase lounge. We have yet to get fabric for the chair bottoms of these 4 chairs.
It's that time of the Pumpkin Season and I love pumpkins but I dislike carving them. Here's a better way to display your pumpkins without the hassle of cutting or carving anything. Not only it will look great, it'll last longer and it's an artwork that you created.
All you have to do is have some sharpie pens and a pumpkin.
You don't have to know how to draw, that's the beauty of doodling. Enjoy!
This Holiday is all about being creative and giving something that you make. It's more heartfelt than just buying something from the stores. Don't you agree? Plus they get to have an original. Enjoy and Happy Halloween Everyone!

Red, white and pink hearts. Small hearts for your romantic or crafting needs. There is 100 pieces. Felt fabric hearts can be used as table confetti for a romantic dinner, party or use as crafting embellishments. Link on profile page.
I love this chalkboard contact paper - it's inexpensive and doesn't leave residue! I put it on the inset of a closet door, then wrote "Joy to the World" in chalk and accented it with bells, stars, and a calligraphic scroll design. Easy and festive!

The bottom screw point does not have a screw in it, because there is no contact with wood. We hope that it will hold strong, but since we had to take all the clothes off the rod to complete this project anyways, we lightened its load and set aside a lot of ill-fitting clothes for charity donation.
This is the after shot of the vanity. I did a complete redo. Everything on this really made a big impact, but my favorite is the decorative rope molding which replaced the metal trim and the new sink fixture. Also, I did a great and extremely cheap technique to update the counters.

This project I just started. Another little section in my front hallway where I want to hang large scale prints of my photographs and other peoples art work - kinda a rotating art space.
The picture is terrible but it's a tricky angle in my hall. Basically the area is about 3 feet by 3 feet. I am painting 5 or 6 layers of magnetic paint, then I will overcoat it with the wall colour to blend the area in.
Once dry i will have a great place to hang with earth magnets all my favourite artwork and photographs.
This is an experimental wall, but if it works well I am debating doing this on a couple of other tricky walls in my house where I can't use screws or nails.
I'm hoping that it doesn't take too many layers of the yellow paint to hide the black, but it is pretty darn dark. I will post an updated pictures when the project is done.

Beat together the butter and sugar until pale and creamy, then beat in the yolk, vanilla and zest. Sift the flour and salt into the bowl, then stir in to make a soft dough. Split into two flat discs, then wrap in cling film and chill for 30 mins, or until firm but not rock hard. Meanwhile, heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line two baking sheets with baking parchment.
Flour the work surface, then roll the dough to 5mm thick. Stamp the dough with an 8cm round cutter, then re-rolling any trimmings. Using the same cutter, cut a crescent moon and a pointy oval shape from each circle. Pinch the corners of the oval and indent the top and bottom to make lips. For moustaches, shape the half moon, pressing a dent into the top of the curve, then tweak and pinch the ends to make a moustache.
Chill for 10 mins, or until firm, then poke cake pop sticks carefully into the dough. I find putting one hand on top of the dough as I insert the stick with the other prevents the stick from popping through the surface of the dough.
Bake for 12 mins, one tray at a time, until pale golden. Leave on the tray for 5 mins before lifting to a wire rack (use a palette knife rather than the sticks) and cooling completely. Make the icing by beating the egg white and the sugar until thick and smooth. Divide into four batches and colour them two shades of pink and two of brown. Spoon the darker icings into disposable piping bags and snip off the tips (or use a number 2 nozzle).
Pipe moustache and lip outlines onto the cookies. Dry for a few mins. Now loosen the paler icings with a few drops of water until runny. Spoon a little onto each cookie and let it flood to the outline, nudging it up to the edge if needed, using a cocktail stick or tip of a teaspoon. Dry for 10 mins, then pipe a darker mouth line onto the lips, and zig-zagged lines over the moustaches. Sprinkle with glitter if using, and leave to set.
...finally getting the treatment it should have recieved since quite a long time. After deciding that it won't be used as a table any more and that is quite convenient as a bench in the dining area, the right fabric was found and the process begun....
I used the inside of three chair pillows that I actually didn't like at all, to create a soft sitting, without needing to add a pillow, as I used to do.

#busybfromgermany #nostalgia #diy #dollrepair #francie #childhoodtoys In this video of the barbie repair cafe you can see how to repair or make the real eyelashes of Francie, Barbie, Skipper and other friends of the Barbie family. It is not really hard to do but time consuming. And of course it is possible to repair the missing lashes on existing dolls but mine here were completely gone.Full video will be online here bit.ly/2YLoqFU from tomorrow on.

Hi and welcome to my Barbie Channel. I'm a real Barbie girl and as a long time collector. I'd like to show you different aspects like how to do repairs for Barbies produced from 1959 until the 1990s and how to become a good Barbie doc yourself. So you can use my experience to do the repairs yourself and save money by the fact that you don't need another person to repair them for you.If you have any suggestions what to tape or a specific topic just let me know. I'm open for new ideas.
I was just browsing through photos from last year and found this. It was really underexposed as I was just adjusting my camera still it caught my eye. I've tried to fix it because I love the quiet peacefulness of the moment. My kids hardly stop for a second.
(These are times when I am happy I shoot RAW...) :)
PS: and I feel so proud of my DIY "pseudo fireplace" that I managed to finish just before Christmas. ;)
