It’s spring: Make a decorative birds nest

This is a decorative birds nest you can easily make out of some wool and fabric scraps.

A tutorial for the nest can be found at Carolyns Homework Blog.

Very important is also the recipe for the papier-mâché glue, which worked surprisingly well.

A Tablet PC Sleeve

I came up with a sleeve for the recently purchased Android tablet. The sleeve is padded and has a pouch on the front to put the USB cable and a cloth in. The cloth is very important to get rid off the inevitable fingerprints.IMG_3353

Front pouch and tablet compartment are closed with the same button.
