great tip for restoring dull/scratched plastic surfaces

do you have plastic windows in a house or roombox you've build? Or have plastic accessories  like vases and so on? Then you know how easily plastic scratches and becomes dull and not very nice looking.

wish to know how to get rid of that and give them a nice polish that makes them bright and like new again? With only that what you have in your home?
I think you might, here's how.

door handle

just a little something. Because I had to finish some 'gummyfrub' (mold-making stuff) that was almost past it's expiration date and I had recently been looking at our doorhandles (and decided that I would like to make them for the toiletdoor in my Oldtique Store) I decided that's what I would use the 'gummyfrub' for along with some other items I wanted molds for. But had to make the handle first :)

tutorial imaged metal signs

hi again, hope you've had nice holidays and I wish everyone what you wish/need for 2013 and of course lot's of inspiration and fun mini-ing!

I'd like to start this year with a tutorial of how to make the metal plates as shown in my Give-Away. As I promised Jo, from Jo Mini in a reply to her comment, so here it is!

the sign in the front appeared rusted once it had dried up, probably because the surface of the sodacanmetal was tarnished from the fire, it started rusting that easy and fast in the short time of being in contact with water after applying the decal. I love the natural feel of it, would be impossible (for me) to mimic like that
