Recycled Branch – Nature’s Toilet Paper Holder
Made from an old branch we found in the backyard.
1. Cut away bark.
2. Sand using various sand papers (40-60, 80-120 then finally 150-180).
2. Use strong glue to attach to your wall.
Wrapped cord
A great way to use fabric leftovers- sew them together, wrap it with thread and then use the cord to make for example a basket (check “coiling” from google).
I made 22 metres in 2 days, working on the cord for 8 or so hours.
We got the idea from this book.
Candle holders from old food cans
2 easy way of doing these:
1) fill the cans with water, freeze the water, hammer holes with different size nails.
2) attach a round stick of wood to a table and let the can lay in it while you´re hammering the holes.
(the ice / the wood stick keeps the cans in shape while your hammering)
Embroidery Hoop – Night Vision Upgrade
We added some LEDs and a battery pack to an embroidery hoop to allow for stitching at night.
Consider this Version 1 since there is no on/off switch – you have to remove the batteries manually 
Build time: ~2-3 hours.
Arduino and Breadboard Holder v2
Original idea taken from SparkFun’s holder.
Build time: 3-15 minutes, depending if your Lego pieces are pre-sorted or not
Parts list: 1x 16×16 base plate, 2x Fence 1x4x1, 1x Wall Panel 1x2x1, 4x Square Brick 1×1, 2x Plate 1×6 and (optional) personal engineer.
Warning: This works perfectly with our particular (Conrad) breadboard which has grooves on 2 sides (left and bottom), making it necessary to use smaller pieces. Required Lego pieces for your own breadboard may vary somewhat.
Arduino and Breadboard Holder v1
Original idea taken from here.
I just used some old cardboard and cut slits on all 4 sides. Then I cut up some small pieces and put them into the slits. Voila!
Build time: ~15 minutes.
Recycled Keyboard Magnet Scrabble
Old keyboards + magnets = scrabble for your refrigerator!
8 x 2mm magnets from this site which have self-adhesive tape on the bottom – no glue required.
