Converting Your Vintage Six-16 Camera
One hundred year old plus box cameras are still completely viable, working cameras. Unfortunately the challenge when using them is in dealing with long discontinued film formats.

Paper Daffodils
Daffodils are just springing up with bright yellow blooms in many parts of North America. While it’s too late to plant daffodil bulbs in the garden for flowering this year, why not place a few of these paper daffodils in a vase instead?
Growing Native
Let us count the ways why you should garden with plants that are native to your region:
1. They’re well adapted to your environment, making them a whole lot easier to care for than your average fussy tea roses.
T-Shirt Reconstruction
Is T-shirt reconstruction the new knitting? Just in time for fairer skies, a new crop of books on the subject is hitting store shelves. Titles such as Tease, Generation T, and Rip IT are all flush with ways to turn that oversized concert tee into something useable.
If you’re looking for something to whip up tonight, look no further than the Web. I’ve got a pile of shirts in the closet that I’ve been saving to make the classic Check Out How Much I Used to Rock-Out Quilt. Future prom attendees might try the T-shirt Gown for a project that is as equally ambitious as it is wearable.
Get Your Seeds On
Seed-starting season is upon us which means it’s time to figure what to grow, when to start it, and how. And of course, to further confuse, plants must be started at specific times and by various methods; some prefer to be direct sown outdoors, while others require some indoor prep-time before heading outside.
Easter Crafting
I’m not big on holiday crafting — finding the time to acknowledge their existance on the given day is hard enough! However, if I did suddenly morph into a holiday crafter I would totally be right on populating my apartment with Hillary Lang’s charming Wee Bunnies.
