DIY Knitting Patterns and Tutorials

Katar — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 19:00:21 +0000

Knitting is one of the crafts I’ve been meaning to learn forever. Years ago, I received a ‘how to’ knitting book with all the supplies needed for beginners. I must have looked over the book and tried to knit a bunch of different ways for over a week – but just couldn’t get anywhere! I’m thinking about going to a class at Jo-Ann’s – hopefully they can teach me! In the mean time, here are some free patterns and tutorials for those who can knit.

I am hardcore SET on making a stamp to use on my ‘save the date’ cards for my wedding. Of course… I need to learn how to make stamps first, and that’s why this blog post exists!

Stenciling is always fun too – maybe I’ll make presents for my bridesmaids using these tutorials. Heck yeah!

DIY Alice in Wonderland Mad Hatter Pillow

Katar — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 19:00:07 +0000

DIYscene‘s swap theme for the month of November was Burtonesque. My partner said that she loved the idea of the new movie directed by Burton, Alice in Wonderland, coming out in 2010. I decided to try something that I’ve never tried before, which was making a pillow with a character on it, made entirely with fabric scraps. I decided to do Johnny Depp’s character in Alice in Wonderland movie, The Mad Hatter.

Johnny Depp - The Mad Hatter

When starting out, I thought this pillow would be really easy to make. Actually, it took me several full days and most of the nights in November to finish it! I tried to cut out fabric according to the picture above. I worked out as many shapes as possible from the poster in Photoshop. I then cut out half of the shapes on my Cricut, and the other half by hand. It took forever to get everything to line up and look right! I had to keep altering shapes, sizes, and colors. Then, because I forgot to use the wrong Heat and Bond material (smacks head), I had to hand-sew every piece of the fabric on by hand. I absolutely LOVE how it turned out, and feel that it was totally worth making! Here are some photos that I took during the process.

If you want a better look at these photos, check out my flickr set for the Mad Hatter Pillow

Finished Mad Hatter Pillow

I do want to make more pillows like this in the future, whenever I get time! If anyone has requests for any characters on pillows, I’d be happy to take custom orders.

DIY Gift Packaging Tutorials

Holy Packaging Batman! There are so many tutorials for this subject – it’s crazy! I tried to sort all of my findings the best I could, so please refer to the contents section below if you’re looking for something in particular.

DIY Ring Bearer Pillow Tutorials

Katar — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 14:00:15 +0000

By now, everyone should know how I feel about overpriced stuff that can be easily made on your own.

Making your own ring bearer pillows will be so much more personalized than buying a mass-produced one. It will be a lot cheaper too! You want your wedding to be original, right?

Lucky for me, I have two ring bearers, so I get to make two! Yay!

Here are some great tutorials that I’ve come across in my search for making my own. When I get around to making my own, I will be sure to post my tutorial and plenty of photos! For now, just click on the photos below to go to a tutorial that interests you.
