Indoor Shutters - DIY

Now that we'ere in August, (can you really believe it?!), it's time for some August diy projects! This is all about cute indoor shutters. It reminds me of something you'd see in a cute little kid's room. If the colors were bright like a pink or yellow, it would remind me of something from the islands.

Supplies Needed:

1×4 boards
paint
nails
gel stain (optional if you want to distress it)
some picture hangers

Get Started:

Cut 6 boards to 3 feet in length and then 4 boards cut to measure 12 inches. Depending on which home improvement store you get the wood at, they should cut these for free.
Lay out the pieces and paint. You can use spray paint just fine for this.
Lay the 12" pieces out and stack three of the 3-foot boards on there and nail. (Pictured is a nail gun, but you don't need a nail gun.)
This part is optional, but if you want to distress the look of your boards, you need to apply a little bit of gel stain. The trick for this is to apply just a little bit and to do it FAST BEFORE IT DRIES!
Attach picture hangers onto the backside and it's ready for hanging! A project like this shouldn't cost more than $50. In fact, you can expect to spend less than $30 for this. For more projects, click here.

Tips on How to Launch a Successful Art Career: Strategy Tips For The Creative Mind
If you're reading this article, chances are you're looking to launch your first art career, or you've been dabbling for a while now but have yet to see much success. On the other hand, perhaps you're tired of seeing your artwork sitting in the corner and want to take action. The good news is that there is hope! With the right strategy, any creative mind can find success. This article will share helpful tips on launching a successful artistic career — from finding your first clients to making money from your work. Keep reading for more information on how this works and what you need to do to reach that goal. What is Artistic Career Growth? Artistic career growth refers to growing as an artist, both professionally and personally. This is a challenging path, as it requires a lot of focus and effort. The growth process is about consistently putting yourself out there and reaching out to people based on your creative ideas. It means being confident enough to take no for an answer. And, sometimes, it means taking a risk and quitting your day job to pursue your dream full-time. It also means being willing to re-examine your artistic priorities and beliefs. Finally, it means assessing your strengths and weaknesses and being willing to change what you do and how you do it to continue growing and succeeding. Strategies for a Successful Art Career The best way to start building a successful artistic career is by taking the time to evaluate your current situation. We can all talk about the "right" way to do things, but you will not be very successful in the long run without a solid understanding of where you are. Below are some key areas to look at when assessing your artistic career growth. - Find your ideal client base. This can be a great place to start when finding the right clients for your artwork. - Create a website, and use it to showcase your work and to land your first clients. - Create a professional email list and use it to grow your client base. - Create a social media presence, and use it to promote your work, find inspiration, and find new customers. - Invest in your skills and education, and use this to grow your career and build your portfolio. - Set your rates and be willing to charge for your time. - Set a realistic timeline for your goals, and stay focused. - Stay connected to the community, share your knowledge and experience with others, and build your network. - Take advantage of every opportunity that comes your way and invests your time wisely.- Remember, you're doing this for yourself and your family, so don't forget to enjoy it too! Why Is It So Hard to Launch a New Career? The first thing to consider is why launching a successful artistic career is so difficult in the first place. Many factors contribute to the difficulty of growing an artistic career, but the two biggest reasons are timing and opportunity. - The timing factor has to do with the success of your peers. There are going to be moments in time when artists are famous and others when they're not. The key is to be ready for when people suddenly discover your work and to be prepared to refer business to your clients as soon as they call. - Opportunity has to do with the demand for your skill set and clients' availability. You never know when or where you'll find business as an artist. Even if you have a solid client base, they may not know that you exist if you've been busy and haven't been seeking them out. Help People Feel What You Want Them To Feel. You'll quickly notice this as an artist who wants to grow their career. Sometimes you want to land a specific client, and they will not want your work. And that's okay. People are complex, and everyone has different needs. You don't need to force yourself on people. Instead, try to understand what they want and need, and then offer to help them in any way you can. Try to find out what kind of work would interest your ideal clients and then do that work. Doing this will help you understand more about your ideal clients and their needs, which is always good. Define your artistic goals This is one of the essential steps in the growth process. It would be best if you defined your artistic goals because only then will you have something to shoot for. You'll also find it easier to stay focused if you have a plan in mind. So what are your artistic goals? - To find your first clients. - To create a product that people want to buy. - To increase your reputation as an artist. - To create a strong portfolio that showcases your work.- To build a platform to earn money from your art. Get comfortable with rejection. Rejection is a part of any business. No matter what you do, you will have to deal with it. The only way to get better at dealing with it is to practice. There will be times when you get rejected, and there are no excuses for it. Instead, use those moments to learn from your mistakes and apply what you've just learned to the next opportunity. However, there are also times when you will be rejected that are unfair or simply unintentional. In these situations, it's important to remember that you will get rejected, and it's important to remember that it doesn't mean you're not good enough. Remember to promote your work too! Most artists get excited about his work but must remember to talk about him. This is what gets your work noticed and appreciated. It is important to talk about your work, which helps you stay focused and also helps you promote it. Whether on your website, on your social networks, or by creating a blog, you must keep your audience updated on your creations. This way, they will know what you have done and what is coming. This will help you both to make yourself known and to promote yourself, and you will have more reach to a larger audience. Conclusion Launching a successful artistic career can be intimidating, scary, and overwhelming. It can seem like an uphill battle, and if we've been dreaming about this for a long time, it can feel like we're never going to get there and that we'll never be successful. But all of this is simply a result of timing and opportunity. That's something you can control, and there's no reason you can't succeed in this area of your life.

Lifesize Jenga - DIY
A short while ago I shared a DIY to make corn hole toss games, which are super popular here in the midwest, and elsewhere too, I'm sure, which you can read about here. But I wanted to bring back another fun game that everyone loves--perfect for Summertime--Jenga! Materials (6) 8-foot long 2x4s Circular Saw Sand Paper Level 12×12 (or larger) Cement Patio Brick Large Plastic Storage Bin *Paint and Sealant (optional if you want it cute and fun looking) Step 1 Cut each 2×4 into nine 10.5 inch* pieces. This will yield 54 total blocks to be stacked in 18 rows of 3. (If you make mistakes like I do, then you may want to buy one extra board...just in case.) Step 2 Sand all the rough parts of the cut pieces. Don't go nuts, just make them splinter-free! *This is the part where you'd add paint and sealant if you wanted these to be cute looking. Step 3 Use a level to find a FLAT part of the yard to play this. This is what the 12 x 12 cement patio paver is for: to make a flat and level place to play. Now you're ready to play the game! Have fun with it. When you're done, simply store the pieces in a plastic durable container away from the elements. Get one with handles so you can easily unload it from your car if you take it to the park to play this summer. In fact, have you seen my other summer projects? Click here!
Make This Shelf In 1 Hour - DIY
Totally serious! Yes--you can make this cute shelf with cute curves in about an hour. To add color to this woodworking project, all you have to do is get spray paint, sealant and wait for it to dry, which means it won't be done in an hour. Maybe 2-3 hours. Supplies Needed: -DPI board (you only need one sheet) -a pine board (1 x 6 x 8 would be just enough) -10 wood screws -paint & polyurethane -saw tooth picture hangers (optional) Tools: -table saw (you could get away with just using a hand saw) -drill -square -2 clamps (or a pair of helping hands) Step One: Cut 2 strips of DPI (each 6" x 48") and one board at 6" x 28 11/16". On either end of those pieces, measure and mark in 3 inches. Step Two: From here, it's just a matter of taking one side of each of the DPI pieces and putting them together, overlapping by 3 inches, then clamping them together. (Clamp on the end of each piece. You want room to screw into the middle shelf.) Make sure to keep the shiny side on the outside. After one side is clamped,very carefully, bend the two unclamped ends together, overlapping by 3 inches, and then clamp those. TIP: DPI will bend, but when you are bending it, do it slowly and without applying too much pressure to one single section, or it will snap. Step Three: Once the circle is formed, and if you did your math right, the center piece should fit nicely. From there, you can hold boards up wherever you want them and mark. Then cut. If the piece hits right in the middle of the circle, you won't need to cut angles. Step Five: After the pieces are cut and looking good in their respective spots, hold a speed square up to them while screwing them in... gotta keep the wonkiness to a minimum. Step Six: Finally, you can just put a screw or nail in the wall, hang the shelf on it, and call it a day. Or spend 5 more minutes and put a couple saw tooth hangers on the back for extra stability.

Also, expect to spend a good $200 on this project, depending on what you already have on hand and what you need to buy. Step One: Assemble the base of your terrarium. You can see from the photo above how I (very simply) put mine together. Basically you're going to make a short table with a lip that is sized to fit your plexi box inside. Step Two: Assemble your terrarium box. You'll be using electrical tape and the weld-on #4 to fuse the corners together. These sheets can be cut down by you or the hardware staff. They also come in different pre-cut sizes. Step Three: Create the top piece by fusing two plexi sheets (one smaller than the other) together. Step Four: Fill any edges of your base with wood filler and then paint the base. Step Five: The funnest part of this project is the creation of the contents. Have fun with rocks, plants and

Paradise at Home
There aren’t many things better than relaxing by the pool after a hard day’s work. This is probably why pool landscaping has become so popular in recent years. Adding a little bit of luxury to your garden can make all the difference. Whether you are entertaining guests or just chilling with a cold tinny, a beautiful pool makes life better. Many people shy away from pool landscaping because they think it will be too time-consuming or disruptive. However, creating a beautiful pool doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Whether you want to add a touch of elegance to your existing pool area or completely transform it, there are many landscaping ideas to help you create your own outdoor oasis. Pool landscaping in Sydney When planning a pool landscape in Sydney, it is important to consider the space you have and the type of look you want to achieve. Whether you are looking for a modern and sleek look, a more tropical, resort-like vibe, or a traditional classy feel, there are many options to choose from. You need to think about the area that will be used when landscaping a pool. Do you want to create a low-maintenance area with minimal upkeep? Or do you prefer an area with lots of plants and colours that require more time and care? Careful planning will help you narrow down the types of plants and furniture to include. Adding plants and trees to your pool area is a great way to create a natural and relaxing environment. Consider adding trees such as palm trees, citrus trees and fig trees, as well as shrubs, flowers and vines. These elements can provide privacy, shade and the perfect backdrop for entertaining. If you really want to push the boat out, consider adding a few water features such as a waterfall, fountain or bubbling rock. These features will add a subtle yet stunning accent to your pool area and help to create a more tranquil atmosphere. Adding furniture such as lounge chairs, umbrellas, and outdoor tables can also help to complete your poolscape. Choose furniture that is both comfortable and stylish and that coordinates with the overall look of your pool area. Try to avoid faddish, unusual styles as they soon go out of fashion, and you will be stuck with some outdated furniture. DIY or professional pool landscaping? Creating a beautiful poolscape doesn’t have to be a daunting task. With a bit of planning and creativity, you can create a space that you and your family will enjoy for years to come. However, to reduce the headache and stress and ensure a pool that will last, we recommend using a professional Sydney pool landscaping company. The benefits of using a professional company are countless. Here are a few: 1. Experience & expertise: Professional pool landscaping companies have the experience and expertise to create the look you want. They understand the ins and outs of landscaping and can work within your budget to create a beautiful outdoor pool area that meets your needs. 2. Quality materials: Professional pool landscapers in Sydney use high-quality materials that are designed to last and look great. From pavers and stones to plants and trees, a good professional pool landscaping company can help you select the best materials for your project. 3. Professional design: Most professional pool landscaping firms use CAD software to create concept plans. This allows you to see your vision in 3D form and gives you a better idea of the scope of the project. They can help to create a custom design that meets your needs and budget. They also usually have extensive knowledge of local flora and so can advise you on the best choice of plants, trees and flowers. In addition, they can advise you on how to maintain your choice of flora. 4. Time savings: Hiring a professional pool landscaping company in Sydney can save you time. They can handle the entire project from start to finish, which means you don’t have to worry about the details. Communication with one company rather than many different contractors will help to reduce the stress involved in the project and save time. 5. Cost savings: Professional pool landscapers can provide cost savings by using the best materials and tools. They can also provide discounts on materials and labour, which can help you save money. Overall, hiring a professional pool landscaping company can provide you with an outdoor space that is both beautiful and functional. With their expertise and experience, they can help you create a unique and inviting area that you will enjoy and be proud to share. Choosing the right pool landscapers in Sydney This can be a daunting task as there are many pool landscaping companies in and around Sydney. When coming to make a choice, here are a few tips to ensure you hire the right company. First, do your research. Ask your friends, family and neighbours for recommendations or look online for reviews and testimonials. This can help you to narrow down your choices and find the perfect pool landscaper for your project. Next, look for landscapers who specialise in pool design and construction. Finding a firm that handles the whole construction process can save time, money and headaches. By doing this, you won’t have to deal with multiple companies and contractors. This can ensure your project is finished on time and within budget. It is also important to consider the cost of the project. Ask for estimates from a few different pool landscapers and compare their prices. Don’t just go for the cheapest, as there is usually a reason why they are the cheapest. Finally, make sure you communicate your expectations clearly. Discuss your project with each pool landscaper and provide a detailed list of what you want. Ask questions to make sure they understand the scope of the project and that they have the necessary skills and experience to complete it. Look for a company that offers custom pool design and installation services. Following these tips will help you to find the perfect pool landscaping Sydney company. With the right pool landscaper, you can create a beautiful poolscape that will be the envy of your neighbourhood.

How to Tie Dye with Bleach - 10 Folding Techniques with Pictures Tie dye is a little bit chaotic, and you can’t really tell it what to do. You can get the right tools and use the right methods, but in the end, the dye will go where it wants and do what it wants! The great part is, tie dye is tough to mess up if you do it with an open mind, mixing and pouring colors with the expectation that there is beauty in the uncontrollable. Plus, it is impossible to create two tie dye pieces that are exactly the same, so when you create with tie dye, the results are always uniquely yours! Any variation in color, pattern, or any unexpected result are all just part of the swirly, crumply, gorgeous mess that is tie dye, or any kind of making and creating. see details here :Top 10 reverse tie dye ideas and inspiration
