Great post! i know a girl who made shoes out of the small openers on the sodacans:) They were high heeled platform shoes, and she has worn them!
I got some great inspiration here. Thank you!
Wow, such cool ideas. I like DIY but I'm always lack of time....

plastic chandelier should be the best. umm I'm thinking of taking up sewing again soon. Nothing exciting.
btw, CC. I'm so humbled that you listed my little blog in your side bar as a must see item.. I don't know what to say... maybe I should thank you for a start?
