Question

thanks!!

Answer 1

If you're looking for cool/trendy as in trendy-young-cool, you may want to check out all the boards at Craftster (there are all kinds of craft things there):
http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php

If you want to make things with polymer clay (any style at all, including "trendy"), check out the bazillions of different things you can make with polymer clay from my website.
Here's the Table of Contents page there:

(...scroll all the way down... if you find some topic you want to investigate for lessons, examples, etc., click on its name from the alphabetical navigation bar on the left side).

Have fun,

Answer 2

Well I am hooked on DIY. They offer a lot of crafty shows during the weekday hours that are full of new twists on traditional crafts. Even if you can't view the shows, they give the directions online. You would probably enjoy:

Stylicious - 4 young women gather to show projects for stylish clothes and fashion accessories
DIY Jewelrymaking - wire, clay, all sorts of trendy jewelry
Creative Juices - makes old craft new and trendy in a fun way
B. Creative - hard to describe but definitely original out of the box ideas
From Junky to Funky - the crew redecorates a room using items they find in the trash or at flea markets - they cut it all up, give it interesting new finishes and decorate the room around a theme
Crafters Coast to Coast - they profile 3 contemporary crafters who show you how to make their crafts

Also of interest:
Knitty Gritty - the young hostess offers some traditional and basics but also a lot of fun projects like bikinis, purses, and more
Carol Duval - lots of traditional crafts but her show also offers updated twists on some of the stuff but may be too traditional for what you are looking for
Uncommon Threads - a lot of traditional quilting, needlework, crochet, knit, embroidery etc but she frequently has guests with more trendy takes on these crafts
DIY Scrapbooking - mostly traditional but if you like journaling or scrapbooking, there are a lot of great ideas for creating interesting new albums which you can use the ideas from some of the first list to decorate :)

Just go to http://www.diynetwork.com/diy/program_guide
and on the left click on "find a show". You can then view the sites for each show and look at the instructions and projects they offer.

I like Marlie's Creative Universe, a bit odd, but fun. I also like Knitty, a zine on knitting that is usually just beautiful stuff and always has at least one, uh, odd thing.

And it grew to grow to be into created in straight forward terms for women human beings. pass to the region and click on the pink "club BSG" or the locker to discover the club. Plus the Beacon street women human beings chum you and you may desire to chum human beings too. this is a lot like facebook in spite of if it particularly is threat-unfastened and purely preteen women human beings are there.
