Top 10 Tutorials to Make in Member Craft Rooms {6/23}

It’s that time again – I’m featuring my top ten crafts that were uploaded this week to the Tip Junkie Creative Community.  All of these tutorials with at least 2 steps were shared by fabulous women with crazy amazing skills and talent!    I just love being able to showcase my top picks here each week!  I hope you find something fabulous that you’d like to make this week as well.

If you’d love to be included in the weekly round up, be sure to upload your tutorial or printable file to the TJCC and include at least 2 steps of instruction {and a link back to your blog if you have more detailed instructions you’d like to share there}.  It’s always been my goal to showcase crafty women, and this is just one more way I came up with share what you’ve been making!  {{high fives}}

1.  How to Make a DIY Ballard Designs Corkboard ~ Here’s how to turn a thick wooden frame into a cork board (this one cost $2!). The frame was painted with chalk paint  two layers of cork were inserted. This is an item that can be used in the office or mudroom, as a display board at a wedding, or even to hold jewelry in a walk in closet!  {{adore}}

2.  How to Make a Bunny Out of an Old Sweater  ~ Instead of donating a soft, old sweater when it becomes unwearable, it’s easy to turn it into a snuggly bunny rabbit. Who wouldn’t want to hug a cashmere bunny? Printable pattern and tutorial included.  {{knuckle bumps}}

3.  DIY Y’all Outdoor Pillow ~  A fun stenciled outdoor pillow can be super easy to make and save you a bundle as you fix up your porch and patio for summer.  Here’s how to do it!

6.  Stars and Stripes T-Shirt ~ This tutorial combines freezer stenciling and sewing.  The author just added some ribbon to lengthen one of  her daughter’s shirts that was too short and used freezer paper stenciling to create some stars. She also used fabric spray paint for the first time. {{fun}}
