One thing I found easier to do is to use tiny glue dots (3/16") in place of the double sided tape.....you can directly press them onto the paint chips and keep your fingers sticky-free.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-14374708546529730462012-08-05T13:17:23.565-05:002012-08-05T13:17:23.565-05:00such an awesome idea!!!

It is frustrating though that there doesn't seem to be much action you can take stop content being lifted (aside from not posting). I guess you could place watermarks of your own over your images but I'm guessing you might find that unsightly.Bellenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-35144757532426293582012-05-01T09:25:34.106-05:002012-05-01T09:25:34.106-05:00Hey Belle,

I quickly found other posts of mine that have been lifted (no text, just all the step-by-step photos, which now have Duitang watermarks on them and some Chinese text.) And no credit or link anywhere that I could see, so it's annoying, alright. But I don't know what I can do about it.Jessica Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10111703670084066670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-19862522121004002182012-05-01T00:22:25.451-05:002012-05-01T00:22:25.451-05:00Hi Jessica,

The only thing was it was a text-free version sourced from duitang.com, what appears to be the Chinese version of Pinterest. I might not have thought this was an issue if it were properly credited but it appears as though someone has laid their own text and imagery over your photographs. The link is below if you wish to see it yourself:<br /><br />http://www.duitang.com/people/mblog/24309641/detail/<br /><br /><br />I'm not sure if you want or can do anything about it, but I thought you might like to know.Bellenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-26687898831762682762012-04-24T21:33:47.128-05:002012-04-24T21:33:47.128-05:00:) Thanks...:) Thanks...dDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14930715252808383806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-9069876843136275072012-04-10T08:20:06.637-05:002012-04-10T08:20:06.637-05:00Hi Ash, what link are you referring to?Hi Ash, what link are you referring to?Jessica Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10111703670084066670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-64349054068727020952012-04-10T02:36:11.389-05:002012-04-10T02:36:11.389-05:00The link isn't working.

If you start with a 5x5 square for the bottom of the box, making the sides slightly taller than 1.5" results in a box bottom that is just a hair UNDER 2" wide. Making the sides of the lid slightly shorter than 0.5" results in a lid that is a hair OVER 2" wide. So the lid should fit over the bottom of the box without falling in.Jessica Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10111703670084066670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-28581090537805510332012-02-20T15:49:44.768-06:002012-02-20T15:49:44.768-06:00I made the box following your instructions and the...I made the box following your instructions and the lids falls down into the bottom.
