Origami is awesome.

[swimboy]

1. Quite an accomplishment

I would have to submit either something I've baked or cooked or a picture of the house I helped renovate, if that counts.

[tjwmason]

24. Go with that picture of you renovating the house.

Shows a certain "asset" of yours very well indeed. :evilgrin:

Oh and is indeed a house on which you're working....

[swimboy]

29. It shall be as you wish

Oh yes, another thing I made once was a picture of you with horns. Now where did I put that? :evilgrin:

[DS1]

2. Little robot from Maya tutorial book

[SeattleGirl]

3. This was the centerpiece arrangement I did for Thanksgiving

[flamingyouth]

7. Beautiful!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

9. Thank you!

Flower arranging is one of my hobbies. I usually do live arrangements for wedding cakes, and this past summer, did my first wedding bouquets/boutonnieres since the ones I did for my own 12 years ago.

:hi:

[flamingyouth]

16. What a neat hobby!

You do lovely work. :)

[SeattleGirl]

19. Thank you so much.

It really is one of my great pleasures in life.

[AirmensMom]

15. That's pretty, SG!

I love flowers. :loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

17. Thank you!

So do I, and I love creating arrangements. It's a good outlet for my artistic side!

:hi:

4. My Tiki bar

Had a bar raising one day with some friends and we knocked this out in an afternoon. I built custom furniture for 15 years but don't have pictures of anything on line.

[Oeditpus Rex]

5. I didn't exactly *make* it, but...

Before (or during, actually):





After:

[GOPisEvil]

21. Man...where were you when I had my Impala?

I could have used some help.

I wish I had some skills like that. As I've mentioned I'd love to have a second vehicle to play 'round with - bonus if it can haul something once in a while.

[Oeditpus Rex]

26. What year?

That was my Big Project. I'd never completely removed a steering column, and the thought of it was rather intimidating. But it all went back together properly, and I even managed to get some of the slop out of the shift linkage. (It had a couple of broken spacers.)

It still isn't finished, btw. I've got new door panels and arm rests ready to go in, and I'm gonna build new speaker boxes behind the seat so I don't have to cut the panels. Also got a new headliner to put in.

[GOPisEvil]

31. It was a '66. My dad had a '66 when I was born, so I've always loved 'em.

You did nice work. I'm impressed.

[Oeditpus Rex]

32. 'preciate that

The first car I owned was a '66 Bel Air. At one point, it was three different colors of primer.

I loved that car, man.

[Benfea]

6. OK

The nephew munching on cheerios:



Gah! The board script doesn't seem to like ImageShack URLs. :(

[Solon]

60. Use the direct link only and it should work. n/t

[Benfea]

61. What do you mean by direct link?

The URL unfortunately ends with a ".jpg" so no matter how I try to put the URL in my post, it generates the same error.

[Solon]

63. OK, what I mean it should be a DIRECT link...

like this, as an example:

h ttp://imageshack.us/something.jpg

it will be a little longer than that and without the space between the "h" and "t", but it is to contain NO code, none of these <>, or question marks, or brackets, none of those at all. The ".jpg" is part of the image's filename and should be in the URL, otherwise the board here will not load the image, because it can't fill in what is missing.

[Benfea]

74. As I said, I already tried that.

Thanks, though.

It is not a straight URL to the image, but the "filename.jpg" is a PHP parameter, and the board script is choking on that for some reason.

[sakabatou]

8. My stuff

"Highways"



"Tachikoma"

More at the link in signature line.

[politicat]

20. That's gorgeous.

[sakabatou]

27. Thanks!

[AirmensMom]

10. I posted this a long time ago.

harleydad and I designed and made it together.

[SeattleGirl]

11. You made that? Wow! That's so cool!

And your kitties sure look like they love it! :hi:

[AirmensMom]

13. Yep! It was a fun project.

They do love it -- but Sashka thinks we made it for HER and she doesn't like to share the top bed or bottom house with the others. She dreams of being an only child.

:loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

18. Kitties are so funny, aren't they?

My youngest cat is best friends with my dog. Youngest kitty's mommy pretty much gets along with her furbaby, but sometimes hisses at her. Then there is my oldest cat, Miss Kitty, The Queen of The Universe, who has not use for ANY other four-legged creature, and for very few two-legged creatures. They are awfully entertaining though!

[AirmensMom]

40. They are!

Yours sound like a riot! :loveya:

[Katherine Brengle]

12. I have two things!

My daughter's first birthday cake--it took me about four hours!

And of course, duh:

[miss_american_pie]

53. She is beautiful

and how long did the cake take?

[Katherine Brengle]

65. lol...

the cake took about 4 hours, from start to finish.

of course, i had absolutely no idea what i was doing and i had to mix all of the frosting colors from scratch, which was a mini-nightmare.

i need to take some new pics of the little one--her 2nd birthday is next month and all of the pics i have on my computer are from months ago.

[miss_american_pie]

66. For my kid's first birthday

I decided to make him a Blue's Clues cake. You know the kind from those Wilton character pans.

I'd never done on ofe those before, but how hard could it be, it's a blue dog?

Six freaking shades of blue and upteen thousand bloody stars with the small star tip.

I did Winnie the Pooh for his second birthday. When he turned three I was 39 weeks pregnant and he got cupcakes. ;)

[Katherine Brengle]

68. cupcakes--sounds like a plan!

i was thinking of doing cupcakes this year... or maybe a fake cheesecake (i'm vegan, and her diet is primarily vegan as well)...

i make some mean homemade frosting tho... i don't know... we'll see what happens!

[miss_american_pie]

69. Yeah, the kid has a dairy allergy

His cupcakes were more like muffins, but he doesn't know the difference anyway.

Kids always love cupcakes. :)

[CBGLuthier]

14. Here are the last two things I made

OK, to be fair, my wife did most of the work on the second one. :-)

[Burma Jones]

22. here

[Katherine Brengle]

23. AWWWWWW

I put a pic of my daughter as one of mine :).

Is this an already-born little one, or on the way?

[Burma Jones]

25. On The Way - Here's a pic of the two I have now......

[Arugula Latte]

35. Wow! Cute Kids ...

And I say that partly because it is obvious and partly because they look a lot like mine! My son, the older brother, has big eyes and thick brown hair. My daughter has curly brown hair. Seriously, there is a big similarity. :thumbsup:

[Katherine Brengle]

67. wow, you must be crazy busy--

one is more than enough for me, lol.

good luck and congrats!!!

[politicat]

28. My triptych.

It's unnamed at the moment. There are old love letters, wall papers from various houses...



mixed media on artboards

[MissMillie]

30. I made the blanket in this picture

[hatredisnotavalue]

33. My husband and I made this

We got the kit on September 24 and moved in Dec. 16. And yes, it was the same year.

[Arugula Latte]

36. Gee, that puts my popsicle stick pencil holder to shame.

:D

[hatredisnotavalue]

42. Actually it was just like doing a lincoln log project

I moved every one of those logs onto the house site, even the 12 footers, I had the biceps of a world class wrestler after building that house. I also sanded and stained every piece of wood in the house and, as god is my witness, I would move into a trailer tomorrow. What an f'n nightmare.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

34. I made this....from a design by my daughter...

It is based on a painting by Escher..It is a satin stitch...

[SeattleGirl]

37. Gorgeous, Peggy!!!

I love it, and you did a wonderful job! :loveya: :hug: :loveya:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

39. My dear SeattleGirl!

Thank you, sweetie! It's not a very good picture, though......This one is rather muddy....

But I thank you nonetheless! I had fun doing it!

:loveya: :hug: :loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

44. I bet you did!

:loveya: :hug: :loveya:

[SofaKingLiberal]

38. okay

[seemunkee]

41. Very nice dragon

I like the pearl paper too. I used to do a lot of origami several years ago.

[EstimatedProphet]

43. Pierogies!

[hippiechick]

45. I made a human !

HippieKid on her first day of high school ~

[kiraboo]

46. What a lovely girl!

This my daughter's first year in high school. I'd post a pic but I have have no idea how to do it!

[hippiechick]

58. Thank you ! Here's a free hosting site ...

www.photobucket.com ...
It will ask you to make up a user name and password,
then allow you to download photos (.jpgs or .gifs)from your computer.

Once you've loaded it, you'll see 3 'tags' - different ways to post images depending on the media you're using - listed under a thumbnail of the photo.
For DU, it would be the one that starts with bracket IMG bracket.
Copy and paste that whole tag into a post, and the pic should be visible inside your post!



:hi:

[kiraboo]

59. Wow, thanks! I'll try it! n/t

[lizziegrace]

47. This is about as artistic as I get

[SeattleGirl]

49. Your quilts are BEAUTIFUL, lizzie!

I especially like the middle one. The colors and design are so eye-catching!

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[lizziegrace]

50. Thanks!

The one in the middle was the first quilt I ever pieced. It was for my daughter in 5th grade and she still loves it.

:hi:

[LeftyMom]

48. Scalloped Hammerhead shark costume:

[lizziegrace]

51. How cute!

I used to make all my daughter's costumes. She still has them all in her closet. Won't part with a single one!

:)

[LeftyMom]

55. I still have all of LeftyKid's, too. I made all but one of them,

so I'd really hate to part with them permanently although we usually lend a few to friends every Halloween.

[SeattleGirl]

52. How cute!

Both the costume, and LeftyKid. Especially LeftyKid! :loveya:

[LeftyMom]

57. Thank you!

He's something, isn't he? :loveya:

[ghostsofgiants]

54. My most recent work

[NoSheep]

[ghostsofgiants]

70. Here's one...

[Ivan Sputnik]

71. I like to draw

or doodle, just ordinary objects, mostly as "therapy." I find it calming.

[swag]

73. Nice drawings.

[swag]

72. I didn't make the bulb, I just made the painting.
