Next, begin to cut your paper to size. I started by cutting 3 sheets 2 inches longer than the depth of the box. Since my banner roll was wider than the box, I then began by taping the sheet along one corner, and then cutting off the excess. Try to leave 1/2 inch along the edge of the box, so you have some room to put tape.
Your finished product should look like this.

Just use a 1-1-1 ratio for these easy treats. 1:1 water and sugar, simmer til clear and syrupy. Add same amount of cranberries (so if 1 cup water and 1 cup sugar, use 1 cup cranberries). Soak for four hours. Remove, roll in sugar, place on greased/wax papered sheet to dry. Eat! They taste like sugar-coated bursts of slightly-tart cranberry sauce. Addictive!
They look amazing perched on top of cupcakes, cakes, pavlovas, or other holiday treats!

8/8 - "No leaks down here! That's a wrap!"
ÉQUIPATE CON…
- Un recipiente que servirá como maceta
- Arlita (bolas de arcilla), Piedras de río, greda volcánica
- Sustrato especial para cactus
- Plantas crasas y esquejes
- Piedras para acuarios de color claro para decorar
- Pinzas y cuchara
TERRARIO DIY PASO A PASO
Paso 1: Colocación del material de drenaje
Añade piedras de río, arlita o greda volcánica en el fondodel recipiente para favorecer el drenaje y evitar que lasraíces de nuestras suculentas se pudran por exceso dehumedad. Esta capa no debería ocupar más de 1/5 parte delvolumen total del recipiente.
Paso 2: Capa de sustrato para cactus
Crea una capa de sustrato que ocupe 2/5 partes del recipiente y aplana con las manos o la cuchara. Este sustrato en concreto tiene un gran contenido enarena que facilita el drenaje del agua de riego y evita pudriciones.
Paso 3: Presentación de las plantas y esquejes
Antes de trasplantar, es muy importante “jugar” con las plantaspara decidir de qué manera las vamos a colocar y que lacomposición quede bonita pero también tengan espacio paracrecer.Coloca a continuación los esquejes para rellenar los huecosentre las plantas. ¡Ayúdate de las pinzas!
Paso 4: Trasplante
Una vez que has elegido su posición, saca las plantasde sus macetas y retira algo de sustrato del cepellón. Coloca las raíces bajo tierra, ayudándote si esnecesario de una cucharilla que sirva de “pala dejardinería”.

Because I was worried that the rain would flow into the barrel faster than it could handle, I built a downspout overflow mechanism (the thing wrapped in screening in this picture).
I used a downspout T-connector with both end caps in place and directed the pre-existing downspout right into that. Then, I sealed up the ends of the T-junction-box with clear acrylic caulk, cut a hole in the back wall of the "T" and inserted the corrugated black tubing into that.
The tubing came with a threaded junction adapter for the end of the hose, which is exactly the same threading as a slip joint (like the kind on a plastic goose neck trap under your sink). I went to the hardware store and got two slip nuts, ground the top off of one for outside of the T-junction-box, and then tightened the second one right up to it creating a water-tight seal around the end of the t-junction-box and the black tube.
I then bought a used window screen from the re-store in town and pulled the fiberglass screen out of it. I doubled that up and wrapped it around the entire assembly, and replaced the downspout.
The whole T-junction-box fit into an adapter which reduced the opening to the size of the hole I cut into the top of the barrel. I did have to spray some "Great Stuff" expanding seal spray around the T box and the reducing collar, but it works great.
I finished the project by taking some zip-ties and connecting them end-to-end to hold the screening in place. By the way, the screening keeps debris out of the rain barrel, if you hadn't guessed.

Now, you could quit here and get some printer paper if you're dealing with small objects, but I wanted to get a seamless insert that would cover the entire inside of the box. To do so, I had to cut my banner paper down to size. I measured the width of the box to be 18 inches, so I cut a sheet approximately that size, 36 inches long, so that I could wrap it forward for a reflector.

19th o' Septembarrr - A Doll A Day 2024
Today Olivia's dad and I decided to tackle one of my diy projects I have been wanting to do. We built a small "beauty dish" for my flash unit. Usually they run for about $40 dollars on amazon. After we made this, all in all it cost about $5. :D

After I get home I am going to spray paint the inside with high gloss white spray paint and the back with black spray paint.
For a wild idea, paint zebra stripes on a board to create a cool piece of artwork. Basic black zebra stripes are fun paired with a bright background color. Or go extreme and create colored stripes like gray and yellow. Here’s how you do it.
You’ll Need: ScotchBlue™ Painter’s Tape, Paint, Paint brushes, Putty knife or 5-in-1 tool, Utility or Precision Knife and a wood board.
Step-by-Step Guide:
1.Paint & Tape
Decide what color zebra stripes you’d like and purchase your desired colors. Keeping in mind that your base color will be the color of the stripe, not the background color, paint your board with the base color and let dry.
Then lay down your tape in diagonal stripes, pressing the tape down as you go, and leaving space in between the stripes. Try laying it down in a different direction in one of the corners for a more realistic look.
2.Cut
Once your tape is laid down, cut off the edges of the tape in a random, wavy pattern using a utility or a precision knife. Remove the cut edges so the remaining tape has a curvy edge.
3.Paint
Paint over the entire board, including the tape, with your base color to seal the edges and let dry.
After it has had ample time to dry, paint the entire board with your accent color. This will be the background color.
Once dry, pull the tape at a 45 degree and go wild!
Once your tape is laid down, cut off the edges of the tape in a random, wavy pattern using a utility or a precision knife. Remove the cut edges so the remaining tape has a curvy edge.
This is a DIY Ring Light that was given to me by fellow Strobist member "Chris Pants" who is moving across country.
I added the gutter pieces to attach my canon flash to the unit and it seems to work pretty nicely. Hey can't beat free :)
Thanks Chris for all the cool stuff!

how about a fingerprint tree? Guests leave their thumbprint as a leaf on your tree, which can then be hung on your wall later and looks great.
Haunted graveyard cake
To make the ghosts, heat oven to 110C/90C fan/gas ¼. Whip the egg white in a clean bowl until stiff peaks form. Whisk in the sugar a tbsp at a time and keep whisking for a couple of mins until the mixture is thick and resembles shaving foam. Gently spoon the mixture into a large freezer bag, then cut a 1.5cm hole in one of the corners. Cover a baking sheet with some baking parchment. Carefully squeeze a small circle of whipped egg white out of the bag, pulling upwards as you do to make a ghost shape. Repeat until the mixture is used up – you should get about 15 ghosts. Bake for 1½ hrs until crisp. Can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
Now make the cake. Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Tip the cocoa powder, self-raising flour and sugar into a large bowl, breaking up any clumps of sugar. Mix together the eggs, milk and oil in a measuring cup or bowl, then pour over the dry ingredients and stir everything together until smooth. Grease and line a deep baking dish (20 x 30 x 5cm) with baking parchment. Pour in the cake mixture and bake for 30 mins. Leave to cool, then turn out onto a serving plate. Alternatively, wrap well and store for up to 2 days.
Finish decorating the cake: heat cream in a saucepan until just boiling. Place the dark chocolate in a large bowl and pour over the hot cream. Stir until the chocolate melts. Use a clean brush to paint a layer of chocolate over 7 rich tea finger biscuits, then set aside to cool. Pour the rest of the chocolate mixture over the cake and smooth over with a knife. Whizz the chocolate cookies, or bash in a freezer bag with a rolling pin, until small crumbs form. Sprinkle over the top of the cake.
Place the white chocolate in a small bowl, set over a pan of simmering water. Leave for 5 mins or until melted, then spoon into a small freezer bag. Wait for 10 mins so the mixture is not too runny, then cut a tiny hole in one corner of the bag. Pipe out 2 small blobs onto each ghost, place a silver ball on each to make eyes, then pipe out suitable words and shapes on the gravestones. Leave for 30 mins to set, then push the biscuit gravestones into the cake and arrange the ghosts around. To get the ghosts to ‘fly’, push a thin wire (you can get these from a florist shop – remember to remove before eating) into the bottom of the ghost, then place in the cake, hiding the wire behind a gravestone.
This stand toward the west-end of Dongmyo flea market has plenty of keyboards - both PC and musical - on offer. And lots of other goodies too. ;-)

4/8 - "SON OF A...."
And now the swearing starts. An inevitability when switching out a drain is that the tailpiece - the straight pipe that points downward under a sink drain - will be either too long or too short. Even though tailpiece connections are ostensibly adjustable, the tailpiece of the new drain will still be the wrong length to match up with the pre-existing drain line.
In this case, the tailpiece is too long, necessitating trimming it to length. Could have been worse: a too-short tailpiece would have required a trip to the hardware store.

Tried this technique and liking the results using water and food coloring.
