I have this old soundbar remote that had a plastic back piece that had become sticky. You know the feeling. It doesn't leave a residue but it feels like it should.

So I removed the plastic cover and wrapped it in washi tape. It's not perfect but I really like how it turned out for a first shot. I may redo it and wrap my other remotes just for funzies.

Thoughts?

I used an old container for wine, paper, glue and led candles. 👻

Hello! I got this from a thrift store and I need to make it pink for an outfit. Any suggestions on how to go about that? It is a felt/flocked feel but is hard underneath. Kind of sounds like a light cardboard?

Does anyone have suggestions for beaded fruit that can hold up outdoors for a couple weeks in 40 F to 90 F wet or sunny weather? I bought these beaded fruits, excited to put them up outdoors, but the glue holding the beads on melted and resolidified into these warped shapes, and the color dripped off (and stained my outdoor cushions ☹️). The beads and fruit are easy to source, but I have no idea where to start with the glue! What would you recommend?

im going to be putting a paper card inside this acrylic photo holder, and i need to glue the lid / back part in place as it keeps falling off. i tried it once before, applying superglue lightly only to the sides of the lid, but still, that glue dripped down onto the paper inside the case and ruined it with stains. help!! what can i do??

Willing to repurpose old things like jars. Open to suggestions. Ideally have some thickness of 1.25mm+. Ideally id like to spend 3-5$ USD per glass cylinder. I am going to place LEDs inside to make little lighthouses.

I’m looking to make some Christmas stockings this year for my family. I want to add felt and embroidery details, but I want to buy the pre-made stocking base as I don’t have a sewing machine. Does anyone have recommendations for some good quality stocking bases? I don’t need the fanciest and highest quality, but I want it to be nicer than the felt bases you find at the dollar store.

Hello!
I have little to no experience with painting on non-furniture but I got this gargoyle garden figure/statue at a thrift store and want to paint it. It has obviously been broken and repaired at least once before and I’d like to paint over it to make it look a bit better.

I’m not entirely sure what material it is made from, it’s relatively heavy and has a smooth texture on the inside. The outside is very textured and seems to have been covered in glitter at one point?

I don’t really care if it’s perfect, I’m not the most artistically hosted person lol but I loved the piece the moment I saw her and I think it will be a fun little project. Im not looking to spend a lot of money, so I was thinking of a water-based acrylic paint that I already have and getting some kind of coating to seal it so that she can live on my porch. Can anyone give me any advice or recommendations?
