DIY Easy Braided Satin Cord Beaded Necklace Tutorial from LYSM Design here. She uses ribbon as the closure so you don’t need any special jewelry findings. *I translated the site automatically using Chrome. I’ve left a comment on her blog asking if she might install a google translator box on her blog (like I have on mine) because I post a lot of her DIYs.

Racoon Elbow Patches | Imagine Gnats
How cute are these elbow patches!? And so easy to make - just felt and a whip stitch to attach. If you’re not keen on adding them to your cardigan, you could applique it to the front of your jumper or even make it into a badge.
The Liquid Lights by Maarten De Ceulaer
The Liquid Lights evoke an atmosphere of mysterious laboratory experiments and mad scientists. The concept is simple; by adding a few drops of edible food colorants to the water inside the bottle, you can change the color of the lamp, and the atmosphere in the room. Although, it’s not even necessary to use color, regular transparent water creates beautiful optical effects, magnifying and deforming the sandblasted glass dome at the bottom of the lamp. One single LED illuminates this diffusing dome completely.

Aurora is TCCs black light phosphorescent take on jungle-juice. Originally conceived in 2006, it is a drink that is pink in natural light, but glows aqua-marine in black-light. Thus, it represents the two main colors of the aurora-borealis. So, without further ado here is the recipe. (Originally, the drink was made with just pink-lemonade, but was later modified to use Rose’s Mojito Passion).
WHAT YOU NEED
2 liters Gin or Vodka
9 Liters Tonic Water
3-4 Bottles Roses Mojito Passion, OR 3-4 Canisters of Pink-Lemonade Concentrate
Ice
INSTRUCTIONS
Mix all ingredients together shortly before the party begins.
Add ice as late as possible before drinking.
