Feature Friday- Inspired by the Sitcom!

I am always thrilled to receive mail from folks who have been inspired by my tutorials.  This week, I thought I’d feature of few of the recent ones to hit my mailbox.  So check out some of the awesome projects that were originally inspired by a Sitcom post!

Your faux stained glass project got me hooked and this was my first try, it won’t be my last. I have tremors and this gives me a chance to do the stained glass look. Thanks for sharing your crafting ingenuity.~ Ann- Crafting Tales

Hi Suzy!
So, I stumbled upon your blog last summer when I came across your flip flop pillow tutorial, and ever since then your blog has been bookmarked on my computer and I check it every day! Recently, I got inspired by your faux punched tin tutorial, and I made my own variation on it, with embossing instead of punching. I had seen other tutorials where people embossed, but they used an embossing machine, and seeing as how I’m still just a teenager, I came up with my own easier DIY version of embossing. I made a video, and I wanted to send it to you to show what at inspiration your blog can be. I know you recently did a blog post about people who were inspired by your projects, so I thought I would show you what I came up with. 

This is my video, I hope you like it! ~ Drew

Here are the pictures of my projects so far. The wrought iron looks good, but I think next time I would make it a little more delicate… The second picture is George the Galah.(My favourite Australian bird) I tried to capture the colours of the area around where I live on the mighty Murray river in the country..very red earth, blue sky, grey/green native gum trees etc. I adore it here, as we have retired from the city and I can now spend all my spare time crafting!! I started off to do him as stained glass, but because I wanted intense colours and detail, he became virtually a painting on glass. I sealed with layers of Krystal cote and he proudly hangs on my small verandah for all to see. ~ Dorothy in Australia

Hi Suzy!
I just wanted to thank you for the fantastic idea for making message clips from mousetraps!! I saw it on Pinterest and made my own. It’s such a brilliant idea! I just wanted to let you know and to thank you for sharing. ~
Thanks again,

The projects that inspired:

Magnetic Mouse Trap Clips, and Faux Metal Wall Art (The Faux Metal Wall Art will be published in a major craft magazine and has been removed from the site until the magazine comes out in mid June- in the meantime, the Faux Metal Filigree Frame project is very similar and also incorporates toilet paper tubes)!

Faux Stained Glass Tutorial and the Faux Punched Tin Tutorial
