Hello!

A few days ago I stumbled upon these two post

http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=253297.0

http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=123500.0

So these are kind of a mixture of both ideas.
Made from a plastic water bottle, quilt badding, a glue gun and some ribbon. 





So this one is possibly my fav. red polka dots..need I say more?

For this one I made a little bow and glued it on.

On this one I first wrapped it with white ribbon, and then went over it with this pink lace.
The  blue ones did not take a great pic on the table so I went with a  white background haha..
anyway I wrapped these in a thin blue ribbon


and.. me wearing the Lacey pink one

Hey guys!

I got a craving for cupcakes the other day and decided to go all out, and use my moms recipe for filled cupcakes!







Here is the Recipe


For Batter

2 Cups Sugar
2 Cups Flour
2-3 Medium Eggs
2 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. Vanilla extract
1 Cup Mayonnaise
6 TBS Cocoa Powder 
Pinch of salt
1 Cup Cold Water

-Mix all ingredients; beat 2 minutes at medium speed.
-Bake at 350 F for about 20 minutes ( Makes 24-36 Cupcakes)

For Filling

1 Cup Milk
4 TBS flour
2 tsp Vanilla extract
1 Cup Vegetable shortening
1 Cup Granulated Sugar 

-Combine milk and flour, cook over low flame until thick and smooth.
-Add vanilla and let cool completely.
-In an electric mixer cream  sugar and shortening. Beat until no sugar crystals remain (usually 10 minutes).
-Add milk and flour mixture, beat an additional 10 minutes.
-Using a number 7 or 8 decorating tip, insert filling into top of cooled cupcakes, until they puff up in size.
- Frost & enjoy!


Pic..After they have been filled

** For "Hostess" cupcakes

Melt chocolate frosting into bowl, dip tops into the frosting to cover them with a nice thick glaze. Once the frosting has set, take white frosting and fill a sandwich bag and make small swirls on top. I recommend practicing a bit on a plate or some wax paper before starting the first cupcake.



Ok, hope you have fun making them and enjoy eating them!!!! Let me know how they come out for you, and I'd love to see pictures if you make some!

I found this T-shirt on a good will .99 cent sale. I thought it was cute, but it was a bit short for me. So I decided to make it into a hoodie!!! I added a bow to one of the shoulders, and a bow on the hood for detail. I also made little holes on the sleeve so I could stick my thumb through ( I'm not sure what you call those lol) 
Let me know what you think!

My friends and I went as super heroes this year, so I decided to be Wonder Woman.
I had tons of fun making my costume!

After seeing this post http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=270964.0.
 I was inspired to create the following shirt... Thanks music_in_threads!!!


The t shirt is  American eagle, but I got it from goodwill on a .99 cent sale, It reads "Sunny Hill Modeling Inc. look brighter with us"


This one was also acquired from goodwill for .99 cents, it's just a yellow Cami.

  I made this tank top to wear to a rally. I just cut a stencil using some letters I printed out from the computer, and a picture of lips I cut out, then I spray painted it. I made it really quickly right before we left for the rally, it took less than 15 mins. 

Just wanted to add.
I don't know how it will fair in the wash yet..Because the rally was yesterday.. Does anyone know how spray paint holds up to washing?  Anyway it served its purpose very well!

Hi!
this is my first post here

I had this shirt that was picked up at the thrift store, it didn't really
fit..

So I took bleach to it! Then I cut the sleeves, and the neckline. And added some stitching details!







Then I had this black shirt, it was kind of faded, I never wore it



So I used a bleach pen to draw a smiley face on it.



Done
