Here’s some ways I use all the jars I get from the dispensary

I hate throwing these away so I use them to make weird creatures or for propagating plants, and the ones with lids that spin can be used as a good makeshift base for painting smaller stuff

Edit: you can also use jars as filler to take up space inside larger sculpts

How can I upcycle this?

I’m really into upcycling and DIY lately and was wondering what you all would suggest for this tank top. If this doesn’t belong in here, that’s fine, I’ll just delete later. Thanks in advance!

Hand painted on a purse , backpack , 2 pairs of shoes

I really like how these come out

Used : SPEEDBALL TEXTILE PAINT & Angelus leather paints

Upholstery bags

The outside is made from upholstery scraps from Scrap Exchange, and the inside is plain cotton. I've had some of these fabrics for 20+ years.

Ich mach gern Colabs auf Insta wo wir uns jeder ein Basisteil aussuchen und dann was bauen. Diesmal: Kanone/Turret aus PingPongBall und Feuerzeug. Hat mir am Ende so gut gefallen, dass ich noch ein Soundboard und Touchsensor verbaut hab!

Und natürlich Licht!

Ideas for this piggy bank? To keep it as a souvenir.

A friend from my trip to london gave me this piggy bank and I kinda wanna keep it as it is/cut it as less as possible, it's pretty tall so not very comfortable to use it as a pencil holder (and already have one, so I dont want a new one) any ideas of what can I turn it into instead? The only thing I came up with is turning it into a candle holder by cutting a hole in the back and pocking holes into it, but wanna listen to alternatives to that idea!!!

The half bottles glow now too.

I struggled to find a use for the half bottles of Bauckfast until I found these 230V LED strips.

Upcycling Old Canvas Shoes?

I have a couple pairs of old canvas shoes I want to upcycle. They’re pastel colored and have a lot of fun embroidery on them I want to preserve, but I can’t think of what i might upcycle them into, especially with relatively small patches of material. Any ideas?

Paddleboard, Scootboard, and Tennisboard.. Why? I got bored

The Paddle/Oar board is actually rideable! But I just made them to hang up on the wall. Used an e scooter deck, thought it looks cool. Thinking about making an Axeboard, should I or am I just weird?

Is there any way I can get this panini press to make thinner sheets?

Okay I’m gonna do my best to explain the situation here. I got this panini press from the thrift store for the purpose of recycling HDPE. I’ve used it to make some flat sheets, but the press has this lip that goes all the way around the top and bottom plates and keeps the plates from touching completely. As a result, the only sheets I can make are pretty thick (figure 3) and if I want to get them thinner, I have to take them off the press and continue pressing them with an iron (figure 4) which is very time consuming. Is there any way I can modify this press so that I can use it to make thinner sheets? I thought about grinding the lip off but I’m afraid that will ruin the press.
