A Thousand Images October 29, 2008

Jolly Rancher —> Cotton Candy October 22, 2008
This (brilliant, God-given) little machine turns a Jolly Rancher into cotton candy. Don’t ask how it’s done, because clearly the answer is “magic.” It’s called “Ame de Wataame” and will set you back over $200, including shipping.

Maya’s Sack Hack
(click here for her post and full instructions)What You’ll Need:
-bulletin board
-staple gun
-scissors
-coffee sack (Maya suggests calling your local roaster)Steps:
1. Cut your sack open along seam to get the largest useable piece of burlap out of it.
2. Measure your board and cut your covering with about 2-3 inches surplus around each side.
3. Position the graphic where you’d like them and secure it with a couple of thumb tacks.
4. Flip cork board over and staple burlap to back side. Don’t pull taut or you will skew the graphics. (Maya says: “I pulled it tightly the first time and regretted it. My second go at it left the letters a little wavy still, but it didn’t bother me.”)Click here for more photos and details on this project at Maya*Made
