By flock effect I mean that raised, velvet-like finish often used to apply a floral pattern to textiles or wallpaper. I'm interested in trying to do it myself on a suit jacket or t-shirt. Is applying it a process that can be done at home or is it altogether more industrial (expensive machinery; noxious chemicals; etc.)? I asked a textiles guy at John Lewis and he had no idea whatsoever. Has anyone personally done this?

Hello everyone, I hope you guys can help me out here. I am thinking of making a soy candle for my girlfriend for her birthday--soy because she is vegan, and I want to be sensitive to that with this gift. I have been trying to figure out what scent to make the candle, and I had been thinking about using the essential oils of flowers like lavender, but then I remembered that she really liked the way my cologne smells. I was hoping someone here could tell me if it is possible to use cologne as a candle fragrance when you make a candle, and if using soy wax would effect it adversely in any way. I realize that this is an odd question, but I appreciate any help that anyone can provide. Thank you very much in advance.

I've been saving the pretty colored pop tops from energy drinks for a while. I found out how to make a bracelet from them, but no luck on earrings and I'm not an expert on jewelry making so I'm not quite sure on how I would go about making earrings out of them.

Any suggestions are very much appreciated! :)

I am making a "gimmick" for some fans of music entertainers, and wonder where I can purchase the "sticks" not the tongue depressor kind, for making homemade fans. They need to be fairly long and stable, but not popsicle sticks, and I need to buy them in bulk.

I'm like making neclaces out of beads that are sometimes complicated, but I'm not a professional jeweler. I saw some books at hobby lobby that had jewelery made from wire twisting and there were also some components-parts of rings, etc. I was wondering if there would be any way to try to make some sterling silver and maybe gold jewelry that is like that from James Avery. I added some links to James Avery Jewelry I am writing about.
