Collapsible Pet Food and Water Dish

Craftstylish has a tutorial for a collapsible food and water dish for your pets. These are great to keep in a backpack while hiking or taking a long walk with your dog. It’s also great if you are traveling with your pet. These dishes are made from oil cloth, make sure to check the labels of the oil cloth some can be made with certain chemicals that could be harmful to your pets. Look for a non-toxic, untreated oil cloth. Check out Oil Cloth Addict over at Etsy, you can find a bunch of inexpensive varieties of oil cloth.

Hrrrthrrr DIY Rolling Rack

The very talented Hrrrthrrr over at tumblr posted this really cool diy rolling rack tutorial. It makes me think of a rolling rack for a Hollywood wardrobe. If you have no closet this would work as a great alternative. It would also work great when doing laundry, you’d have a place for your basket and to hang wet clothes. For only $50, I think this rolling rack would come in handy. Thanks for posting this tutorial Hrrrthrrr, check out her tumblr blog for some good music selections as well.

Thanksgiving Placemats

I remember making Thanksgiving placemats every year when I was in elementary school. One placemat had the hand print on it where you turn your fingers into the turkey’s feathers. Well this apple placemat is easy enough for a kid to do, but it looks so stylish! Instead of an apple you could make one with a bunch of fruits and veggies, a cornocopia or a turkey. Check out Book Hour Craft Projects blog for the full tutorial.

[me] and goji DIY Cereal

Make your own custom granola mix or cereal, name it and have it sent to you all packaged. Check out [me] and goji to make your very own creation. You can pay $5 to get a picture put on the label. But, I think it would be cool to create your own label design and paste it on there. These could make great holiday gifts. Hmmm…I feel like having some shredded wheat with raisins and cranberries, with a little bit of ground cinnamon.
