DIY, Recipes and Crafts!
Wow! It feels like forever since I have sat down to write a blog post. I have been very active on my YouTube Channel, but I have had so little time that this poor blog has fallen into the wayside. I figured that since The Mandalorian is FINALLY coming out this week, it would be a perfect time to get back to work! This week I made some super simple, and totally awesome DIY Mandalorian Soap!

If you have been around for a while, you know I have a passion for my Silhouette cutting machine. You can use it to make decals for shirts, design and print your own stickers, the projects are endless! I love cutting vinyl designs, but I always felt like I was wasting the negative of the cuts. But, did you know you can use the negatives to do your own DIY Screen Printing with vinyl?
For this project I used I used the negative of a decal I cut, of course I went with a Star Wars theme. You will also need the following:
If you are careful and wash your screen with cold water after, you can reuse the screen and vinyl to make multiple prints. Check out the video below to see how to do this DIY Screen printing with vinyl project!
The key to getting a good print is to make sure you press your vinyl down and remove as many air bubbles as possible. Thicker fonts and designs also work better with the project.
If you want to use the same template that I used in this project, you can grab the free template below!

I must say, I am loving my Poop Emoji Mold. While you can make fun food with it, I have found that crafting with it is so much more fun! Last week I shared how to make some fun Mermaid Poop Soap, so I had to stay on the poop theme and make some DIY Unicorn Poop Candles!

I have already mentioned how much I love the Nightmare Before Christmas. Because of my love for the movie I even made a Nightmare Before Christmas Wreath that I have hanging on my front door. Today I am sharing a fun DIY Jack Skellington Necklace which would be the perfect accessory for a Jack Skellington Halloween costume or Cosplay.

I took a few weeks off to prepare for summer, and get my new Etsy shop up and running. I have to say though, I have missed doing DIY projects. To kick off the summer months, I found a bunch of white shirts on clearance and decided to give them an upgrade. This DIY Vintage Shirt is so easy to make, and you probably already have everything you need on hand!
You can customize these DIY Vintage shirts with any design you want! I had to go with a classic Captain American shirt, but you can do any design you want!

Mother’s Day and Father’s Day is right around the corner! One of my favorite things to do with the kiddos is make hand made gifts to give to their Grandparents. This DIY Faux Stain Glass Art is simple enough that the kids can make them, but can also be customized!
I decided to make a Spider Man Faux Stain Glass, but like I said, you can do what ever you want. If you have to buy everything, it cost you under $5 to make! I already had everything on hand, so it cost me absolutely nothing!
To see exactly how easy this DIY Faux Stain Glass Art Project is, check out the video below!
The only down side to this project is waiting for everything to dry. You can always speed up this process by using a blow dryer on low heat to dry everything. If you have a steady hand and an eye for drawing, you can free hand your image. Since I have neither, I just did a quick Google Search for coloring pages and found one that I liked.
This project turned out great, and it was so much fun to make! If you love Nerdy Crafts, be sure to check out our Nerds Only section. We also put out new DIY videos on our YouTube Channel every week, so be sure to subscribe!
When I first started this blog, one of my first projects was a DIY Apron. To this day it is still one of my most popular posts. The directions were a little lack luster, so I wanted to remake it. I also wanted to include a free printable pattern to make the process easier. For this Easy DIY Reversible Apron I went with a Deadpool theme. But, the options are endless with this pattern.
The pattern I included two different options for the waist and neck strap. Option A includes a banded waist, while Option B is a more simple option without the band.
