This weekend’s DIY features
A few amazing highlights from SNS #18
What do you get when you take a stamp and some fabric, and say, maybe even a stick?
WOWSA is exactly what you get. Hand stamped curtains with the most original rustic curtain rod by Make Mine Beautiful. Isn’t this awesome? A wonderful tutorial as well.
And then there’s the one where Storing Up My Treasures created a starburst mirror out of… cd disks and skewers. Total extreme junkin’ to jewels here. Gorgeous! Love the striking simplicity (not to mention metal) of the bursts.
Your eyes are not playing DIY tricks on you. This wonderful ottoman use to be a sidetable with great lines but very tired everything else. What a fabulous piece along with an outstanding tutorial, by Crafty Sisters.
Here’s another sidetable idea. This one made me CRAZY. Songbird painted a vintage suitcase along with the table and created a very one of a kind dreamy pair. LOVE this!
I have NEVER come across such a romantic FAUX fireplace. Mod Vintage Life knows her vintage builds. This is a tutorial with a real lesson so if you’re a fact fanatic, you’ll love this writeup.
I’d call this pillow jewelry. Take a look how a few silk flowers and cute beads transform something plain into something pictoral. A great tutorial is included by Live for each Moment.
A little junkin’ craziness
How about something totally off the wall just for fun silliness? I spotted this little gem at a local gas station in my town. A photo op is a photo op.
This, my friends, is a…
license plate holder of course!
“Before you is any metal lover’s dream doodad. The rusty patina blends in perfectly with the natural setting of..”
Hey, just for fun, would you like to caption this one in comments? Go for it. What text would you pair up with this creative craziness?!?
“This IS my garage. What was your question again?”
“Beats duct tape.”
I dunno! Come up with something in comments if you desire. 🙂
Blah blah rules for the SNS linkup:
1. Please link up your intended post, no your main blog. (post, then click on title of your post, cut and paste that url)
2. Please put a link in your post that leads back to the party so others can see what’s up! (scroll button on sidebar if you wish)
3. I’ve allowed 75 characters in the link title area, so go ahead and tell us your blog name AND project description. There’s room. 🙂
*4. This party is geared for *DIY type projects we can all attempt to make ourselves. Items for sale may be linked up IF your entry is posted on your blog and in tutorial style (unless making the item is self explanatory).
Yahoo! Sat morning with fresh ground coffee goes VERY well with SNS. 🙂

Oh my goodness… that is hilarious!! Now that is something you don’t see every day! I love your caption, “beats duct tape”… too funny! 🙂
‘Now if I could just find my keys.’
Great picture of the ultimate plate hoodis…
I think that truck belongs to Red Green. If I’m not mistaken.
Seriously love the suitcase on the table idea – that one is truly innovative!
Thanks so much for hosting!!
Found on th gangsters tip website: “Need a quick getaway? This will make rotating your license plates easy”
Thank you for the suitcase love! It looks fab up on your site. Just for fun I decided to link up another project.
Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for hosting the party.
I ADORE the white table with the suitcase on top….How clever….and a bit of storage too.
Warm blessings,
Spencer
VISITED SOME OF THE GREAT LINKS, BUT NOTHING NEW TO PST SO i CANNOT JOIN IN. MAYBE I’ll SEARCH MY FILES AND PUT SOMETHING UP ALL THE NEWBIES HAVE NOT SEEN.

Hey – a fellow BC girl! 🙂
Wonderful highlights from the last party and I think that I would name your newest find something like, “Donna’s funky hunk of rusty junky” (haha).
I love the features. I’m going to have to try the mirror. BTW, I like Jan’s title for the find.
I like Jan’s title too! Perfect! Love the suitcase and the table. I also love the table turned ottoman with mirror. Great ideas!!
Thanks
Hugs

Thanks again for featuring my blog Donna, I’m humbled that you liked my idea. I’ve been insipred by your blog for awhile now!
Liscence plate holder comment, “Hey, don’t go crimpin’ my style”;)
Thank you for the feature my friend.
Here’s Mine:
“Funky Strong or Junky (Donna) Gone.” (assuming the whole town knows your reputation for taking any metal that isn’t strapped down and protected.)
Eh Bob, the fuzz is following us again, let’s change over to the Sonora Mexico plate.
Thanks for hosting Donna. How about, “Junk is my vice!”
Funny! It reminds me of all those redneck pictures sent around the internet.
Thanks Donna for the feature!!
Thank You so much for featuring my button art on your sidebar. It seriously just made my day! Have a wonderful weekend!
…chippy paint, perfectly aged wood {the bed of the truck} and a hardworking load.
All I can say is that we all have our “VICES”- yours happens to be all things rusty!
I haven’t finished drooling over last week’s FJ-now to start again!
