Link to a great how to!!! <3 First A Dream: Chair Weaving Tutorial

I saw my next project online today! I have two chairs I bought at a yard sale, well actually my friend/neighbor picked them up for me, for $1.00 each. They are ladder backs with no seats. I have decided to try my luck at weaving the bottoms myself! I will post pics soon, but here are the directions I am going to follow!

Wine cork coasters!

I love this idea! You can recycle your corks or buy them at an arts and crafts store. I usually have a few around so this craft is next to free! I made mine around Christmas and gave them as gifts! Just now getting around to adding photos! Pretty simple, just hot glue them together and finish with some burlap twine!

Art is Everywhere!

My husband and I were browsing through the thrift store and had an interesting find! When he held up this huge commercial mixing beater, I saw Chandelier! My husband being a fireman/electrician, he wired it right up! Don't you love it!
