The craft market gave me some great ideas for DIY projects. Check out this framed beach scene, it is actually a collage made from fabric. The artist used linen, denim, and other fabrics to create an ocean scene and added a tiny seashell and small twig for dimension. While I thought this piece was very cool, I couldn't justify spending the asking price of about $200. I think it would make a great DIY project though.

At the nearby Clocktower Mall, I saw these very cute mosaic candle holders in one of the shops. These votive holders had a very Moroccan look and were covered with glass pieces and beads. I'd love to try my own DIY version of these mosaic cuties by covering a glass votive with grout and then adding some colored glass or beads.

I love all of the project ideas my trip has given me. Have you ever created something based on your travels?
