You know we love a good handmade stamp here. Not only is a stamp something that even someone with zero drawing skills can make, it's the gift that keeps giving since you can wipe, change inks and keep stamping! The idea of using rolling pins (which normally live in the kitchen) is brilliant because think of all the cool patterns you could make with this, for tea towels, curtains, pillow cases, napkins, shower curtains…all sorts of home ideas!

And this is basically where the helpfulness of this post goes down hill. We spotted this idea on the Spanish blog SuTurno, and you can see tons of photos of the stamps in action on their Facebook page. But we're at a loss to see how they made these suckers. Maybe glued-on rubber bands? We'd love if anyone who's familiar with this idea to give us some hints on how to do it! In the meantime absorb the inspiration and MacGyver it yourself!
