Sort of Self Sorting Tool Bin

This unique creation is by Wulf over at at Craftser.  He works as a theatrical prop builder and made up this self-sorting bin:

"At the shop where I work we just toss loose screws, bolts, nails and other bits and pieces of hardware from the workbenches and the floor into a bucket and, every couple of years when the bucket gets too full, somebody has to dump the whole mess out and sort everything back to where it belongs. When that job fell to me this Spring, I decided there had to be a better solution. So I designed a bin that would help to at least divide things by type to make the final sorting easier. Though built for an industrial situation, it would work equally well in the home craft room for jewellery findings, sewing notions, etc."

I think this would be wonderful for tiny craft notions or even in a garage.  What do you think?

Candyland Board Game Turned Into Real Life Garden

I remember playing the game Candyland as a kid and thinking it would be a cool place to live, and Craftster user KandeeCorner did just that by turning her garden into a real-life Candy Land game!

This was the 2nd runner up entry into this month's Crafter Challenge to of "Total Board Game Revamp" and it is amazing.

It consists of 17 little micro-gardens and she indicates:

"Each little micro garden matches the board game (more or less). They have a theme, smell, color and -where I could a taste made with interspersing herbs (lemon balm in the yellow garden), Licorice in the purple one, etc."

DOLLAR STORE SCARLET O'HARA DRESS

This is by user grenouille78 on Crafter and was submitted as part of the Dollar Store Challenge where users create an item spending $10 or less at their local Dollar store.

She created this amazing replica dress out of a hula hoop, a no-skid kitchen mat, a green drawstring laundry bag, a package of 200 coffee filters, shamrock garland, 2 white tablecloths, a package of garden stakes, and 2 water noodles.
