DIY Magazine Bowl

Hey! So, I've been wanting to make some sort of bowl for awhile and I remembered that I had a stack of Time magazines that my sister gave me for whatever. The first thing that I could think of was this magazine bowl I made 2 years go in art class, now I've made it again. It's very easy to make, it's just very time consuming (naturally I started watching H2O so that I wouldn't get bored).

1. Tear one page in half.

2. Take one half and make a crease in the middle. Fold the edge in, then fold it in again.

3. Do the same for the other side, fold it in half.

4. Continue until you feel like you have enough 

(what I have pictured isn't enough, I used 3 Time magazines.)

5. Tape together all the ends.

6. Start to roll it up, roll it VERY tightly.

7. Your roll will keep getting bigger and bigger, make sure it is TIGHT.

8. One you're done, tape the end down. Start forming it into the shape of a bowl. When you like how it looks use a sponge/paintbrush to apply glue all over it so it will stay in place.

DIY Yarn Hanging

Hey! As I have said way too many times, I moved! My room went from empty to boring, but now with furniture after about two weeks of living here. I decided that I needed stuff on the walls.

After scrolling through pinterest for hours on end I decided to do one of those woven wall hangings, then I saw how long that would take. I was NOT about to do that, so I made this instead! 

This is much easier and I think if you do it on a stick instead of a dowel it will look ALOT cooler!

what you need...

7/8X36 dowel or a stick

bulky yarn

hook

1. Lay out the yarn and cut it a little longer than where you want it.

2. Bring the top part of it underneath the dowel and pull the ends through the loop.

3. Continue until you are done.

4. Hang it up somewhere so that you can cut the ends in the way you want.

(Mine is sitting in between my tripods)

5. Now just hang it up with the hook of your choice ( I used a command hook).

and you're done!

The Easiest S'mores Cookie Cake

Okay, it has been a good 3 months or so since I last posted on here and I'm soooo sorry. My family and I moved to Miami and for the past 3 months I haven't had a desk to work on and all my craft stuff was in a box. Now that we are settled and everything is unpacked I can get back into posting! So, get ready for weekly posts! Now, for the threadedbobbins comeback I made a s'mores cookie cake that I really enjoyed and I want you to enjoy it too.

Ingredients:

chocolate chips or a chocolate bar

mini marshmallows 

large marshmallows (optional)

graham crackers

\cookie dough

cookie cake pan

1. Preheat oven to 375˚F.

2. Put the cookie dough in a bowl, add graham cracker crumbs.

3. Spread your dough across the pan. Add more graham cracker crumbs and chocolate chips.

3. Bake for 10 minutes.

4. Take the cake out of the oven after 10 minutes and add marshmallows. Bake for another 3-4 minutes. Change your oven to broil and put the cake bake in for about 2 minutes.

5. Now, take it out of the oven, let it cool, and eat up!

update: I made it again, this time in a rectangle, with large marshmallows as well and instead of putting it back in for a few minutes I changed the oven to broil and put them in for 2 minutes. The marshmallows were nice a brown and oh so soft. yummm
