Map
Contact
me to have yours designed
|
I used a graphics software for this map for a friend. But
this can be done in Word or Powerpoint as well.
The basic idea is to use an existing map as your guide. On a
new layer on top of the existing map, create your roads and other important
details by tracing them on the existing map. When done tracing all that you
need, delete the layer of the existing map and voila… you have a custom map.

Petal Cones
How I Did It
|
Materials (per set)
1 vellum or paper 8.5x11 or 8"x8"
3 feet of
3/8" ribbon
adhesive or vellum tape
For stores,
click here
Tools
scissors, cutter, computer, printer
Template
One paper cone can be printed on one 8.5"x11" paper.
My template has three pages, one for the outside of the cone, one for the
inside, and an instructions diagram. There are two available
templates:
8.5x11 paper creates a height of approximately 12"
Click template above to download
8x8
paper creates a height of approximately 10"
Click template above to download
There's also a template for a different style petal cone that you can download
at
diynet.com.
Directions
Print the first page (the outside), turn the paper, and print the second
page on the back. Using the cutter, cut through the solid and dashed lines.
Apply adhesive on area A. Roll the paper so side B is on top of area
A and covering it. Press to glue them together.
Slide ribbon through the slits (the small cuts). On solid line
slits, ribbon goes from outside to the inside of the cone, while ribbon
goes from the inside to the outside of the cone on dashed line slits.
Begin on slit C. Leave about 8 to 10 inches or more (depending on where
you're hanging the cone) of ribbon between slit D and E. This loop will be used to hang your petal
cone. End on slit F. An instructions diagram with the
direction of ribbon, is provided with the template (similar to below).
The two ends of the ribbon will end up in front of the cone. Tie
them together. You can tie a tag with instructions, your monogram or name or
whatever you choose, with the ribbon. Fill it with petals and you're
all set.

Leaf Tags
Inspiration
photo from knottie:
DRZWife

I suggest using leaf die-cuts. It is a lot easier than cutting your own
leaves with scissors. But for those who wants to, below is a template.
Template
A knottie asked if I had a template for a leaf similar to knottie
DRZWife's (see above). So I made one with two leaf shapes now available to
download:

Martha Stewart
Tissue Pouch
|
Materials
1 8.5x11 paper
tissue
Tools
ruler, computer, printer
Template
A knottie asked if I had a template for a tissue pouch, so I made one using
the Martha Stewart directions. With this template, you can print
with your computer what you want on the front of your pouch. Click
here to download.
Directions
Connect the crop marks on the sides with a ruler and fold the
paper with the ruler as a guide. Fold solid crop marks towards you and
fold dashed crops marks away from you. Center a tissue on the sheet and
fold back the sides where the tissue ends. In the back, weave the flaps
into one another (see photos below). Insert tissues in the front.
