We love these collated design ideas for printing with potatoes from fun-stuff-to-do-with-kids.com that show a variety of great ways to carve a potato to produce some really modern stylish print designs.

This certainly isn’t just for kids but a great DIY to do together with great results.

Simply use fabric paint to print on fabric and you can create unique patterned fabrics to turn into cushion covers, table clothes, bedding, napkins… the opportunities are endless.

Concrete fans will love the collation of great DIYs with concrete that Remodelista have brought together.

Some are so simple purely using the weight and strength of concrete to create the structure.
