These hats are so cute, with a vintage flair. If you see pin-ups or any sort of women from the 40s, they all have hats like this one, made on Threadbanger - a cute show that some of us here at DIY:happy love. All you need is felt. And a sewing machine, bias tape, and some chotchkes to decorate your awesome hat - but who's counting? It's easy! And good for a cocktail party!

This is so cool! DIY:happy recently got a link to this instructable, which teaches you how to make a three-headed holder for anything you're working on. Personally, I've gotten very angry when I'm working on something alone and I need to hold an electronic doohickey of some sort while I use both my hands on it. Now here's something to use that isn't a vice or something equally as unforgiving and rigid! An extra hand; without someone attached to bother you about unrelated matters, hooray!

If you see the end result of this wikihow article, we're pretty sure you say "Oh man, I could never do that!" Wrong.  You can do this, and it is actually relatively easy to execute. Paper, scissors, thread, a stapler, and tape - that's about all you need to perform this awesome crazy 3D paper snowflake.

I have a hopeless addiction to the show Survivorman. As a nature dork, I love the idea of surviving off the fatta th' land, as they say. Les (the dude who is Survivorman) has taught me some indispensible lessons - in the event I get stranded in a remote location with only a broken motorbike, a really heavy pack, and two acorns. Amazingly enough, this instructable is in the spirit of Survivorman (and Boyscouts). Enjoy! 

Okay, if you've been Trick or Treating, you've seen some creative or cool scarecrows and at some point you said "Wow, that's pretty cool... I want to make one." Now, thanks to [via] you can certainly make one yourself, and be satisfied for a year - then you can make an even sweeter model.

How 'bout a little fire, scarecrow?
