"Barn doors are in and if you have ever wanted one but price was to high then make your own with this tutorial with some great step by step pictures to go with it. You can use the door anywhere you choose and can make it any color you like and any handle you want. The best part is the cost is no here what a purchased one. So what are you waiting for go ahead and make one."

"When we go over to one of my sons house for a barbaque they play cornhole. I have never heard of it before that. It is a great game for the whole family or friends and it would be a great idea to have more sets for all my kids. I will have to get some of these made as the boards are quite pricy. I will use soe leftover fabric for the bags. This is a great tutorial to know what the exact measurements need to be. I love that you can paint and decorate the board as you like. Very well put together totorial."

"I really wanna try this. I have a toner I love, but man is it expensive! If I could avoid that and make my own that works well, I'd be so happy."

"Man, this sounds like a life saver. I have such bad split ends, that I always have to get my hair trimmed and can't keep any of the length I'm trying to grow!"

"Love this. Store bought perfumes don't smell natural enough for me, and I'd much rather be able to choose my own scents and know it's non-toxic."

DIY Project Instructions

Start by determining how long you want your tassel then double that length. Cut the yarn to that length.
Cut several strands to that same length. You want your tassel to be nice and full!
Put all of the strands through the hook portion of the keyring.
Pull the keyring to the center of your yarn pieces.
Cut another length of yarn (this one should be really long and you can trim it later).
Tie the yarn around the tassel as shown below. Then wrap it several times.
Tie it a second time with a double knot.
Trim all of the yarn to the same length (including these tie strings) with scissors.
Your tassel keyring is complete and ready for gift giving!
