Finding a new place

Over the weekend, I found a new place for inpiration.  It is a website called Instructables (http://www.instructables.com/).  Seems to be a good place to have good instructions for dyi projects.  I saw this website while listening to the CBC News Network.  Two colunmnists were talking of websites we could go for learning new stuff.  I was curious about Instructables.  I haven't finished browsing it more deeply.  They cover a lot in their projects.  I saw a few of those areas that I am sure to look at (for example jewelry making, homemade beauty products and using some items for other purpose than intended).

I have alteady seen many projects that have catch my eye (http://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-Burts-Beeswax-Lip-Balm/ , http://www.instructables.com/id/Scrabble-Badges/ or http://www.instructables.com/id/Classic-homemade-toothpaste/).  As usual, they are jumpstarts and I may do them my very own way ( at least for the scrabble badges anyway).  For the homemade toothpaste, I will follow the recipe.  I don't consider myself an expert when it comes to homemade beauty products, yet.

It was a bit weird to discover this site now.  Not long ago, I was thinking to do something along the line of that website.  It is not the first time I am beated at this area.  In high school, I created a character, to find later on, that a certain videogame had a character in the same vein than mine.  Seems to be that all creative minds can tap at the same source, that ideas make their ways to different minds at the same time, all to be sure to see the light of day.
