Five DIY’ing Instagrammers

In this week’s release, we have searched through Instagram thoroughly to bring you a few DIY projects and crafts that people around the world have done. Some are functional, while others are decorative and you will probably find one that is both.

Hopefully these will inspire you to kick on and try a project for yourself.

1. Let’s start small. Something nice for you hyper children to keep them occupied. Although make sure when they're playing, they're also wearing safety goggles.

Here's a rather special slingshot. It's an ash block of wood, but I glued a resin piece to where the palm swell is. The scary but cool thing is that this resin looks greenish yellow when exposed to sunlight, but turn to emerald green when it's indoors. I'll go ahead and polish the resin and sand the wood nicely. The other stuff in the box aren't finish yet, I'll show you all everything in the box tonight 😆 #wood #woodwork #woodworking #lathe #slingshotforum #slingshot

2. Speaking of children, what about some minion cupcakes. They're easier than you think.

4. Here is something a little more functional. Now your shoes can be kept as neatly as your clothes.

Colours make people happy and so does hot tea. What happens if you put them both together?

A little trick that I’m sure everybody would want to know. We hear snowflakes are a bit tougher but look better.

We saved the best for last. An eco-friendly flower pot.

Tuna can plant pot....saw this on someone's post but forgot who..thank you though! Very simple #diy Empty and wash out can of tuna. Clip on clothespins (I had some laying around from baby shower). I purchased a potted #hydrangea and slipped it in. I may put twine in the middle for more decor. #houseplant#greenthumb#crafty#craftideas#hobby#crafts#flower#tuna
