DIY Leather Cord Bracelet Tutorials from Small Good Things. Really easy and cute DIY. I like how Emi used crimp beads in a really unique way for one of the bracelts. As in all her tutorials, Emi tells you exactly what size cord and jump rings she used.
DIY Cheap and Easy Wall Art from How About Orange here. This is one of the easiest DIYs I’ve seen that looks like it could work.
DIY Weekly Inspiration Links from inspiration & realisation here. One of the links is for the book jackets pictured above. There are eleven book jackets available on three different sites. I’m posting the ones from sarahenni.com, but they all have the big graphic “GO AWAY” and others in the series have graphics like, “Fiction>Reality”. Very clever, colorful, useful and free!
