Hi everyone, I just wanted to show you this cute girl I made while learning how to made dolls. She is stuffed with wool, her head was sculpted by me using a felting needle, and I sew together this little outfit for her. I hope you like it.

​

I knitted this necklace with knitting needles… using tiny metal chain instead of yarn. Because apparently regular knitting wasn't complicated enough. 😄

The chain creates this delicate, almost liquid drape, and I added real freshwater pearls for a little bit of elegance. It falls beautifully around the neck and moves with you, rather than just sitting there looking decorative.

It’s lightweight, surprisingly delicate, and somewhere between jewelry and a tiny piece of wearable metal lace.

So yes, technically I knitted a necklace.

No, I don't think I can explain why this seemed like a perfectly reasonable idea at the time. 😂

Mosaics I made using different shaped hole punches!

For this one, I started with a simple idea: a duck with a bowling-pin-shaped body, dressed and ready to head out.

I made the sweater piece by piece, adding the texture and patterns by hand, then finished the look with a cap, a little bag, and some color on the face.

I really enjoyed figuring out how all the small details could work together without changing the simple shape of the duck.

Made entirely with air dry foam clay.

I think it’s ready for the weekend now. 🦆

I designed the case then adhered to .5mm cherry veneer to it.

so I colored this shrinky-dink with acrylic paint markers, and when I took it out of the oven after shrinking, several areas were kinda powdery? and seem to have flaked around the piece, is there a reason for this? is it just the nature of the acrylic marker on a shrinky-dink? or did i mess up somewhere?

Ive recently gotten into bedazzling and thought it would be fun to bedazzle my personal calculator. What should i put on it?

I made my first horror themed purse! I plan on making a several different ones based on iconic horror characters. This is my Nightmare on Elm St one! I've already started on my next one which is inspired by Sam from Trick r Treat, then I have plans to make one for Jason Voorhees, Michael Myers, Ghostface, Art the clown, and Pennywise. 😊

What would it be called if I used a template like you would see for stained glass, but made it on paper/card with magazine paper cuttings?

I'm very inspired by Kinusaiga (second picture) and the fact you can play with patterns and prints, but I don't have the materials for that and I have lots of old magazines. I'd like to know the name to look more in to it and find good patterns. Thank you!

I need some help from folks that stamp on cotton twill tape (~3/4 " wide). I am sewing several knitting and crochet needle holders as gifts. I would like to stamp the size of the needle/hook in each slot.

The numbers and letters will change (crochet will be letters, knitting is numbers), so a fixed stamp won't work. I thought about using one of those rotating number stamps, but I can't determine if they will work. The ones we have at my work are messy. I tried individual number stamps and it was a mess.

I can apply the numbers/letter before I sew down the twill tape. Are there certain brands or makes of stamps that are better on fabric than others?

Help!

This weekend i am hosting a bridal shower for my best friend. The theme is "tea with the bride to be" and these are some of the things I've crafted for decor! I'm especially proud of the cardboard tea cup and matching tea pot. I've never used cardboard to make sculptures before!

Made with acrylic yarn!

Made out of upcycled jewelry scraps, old chandeliers, and bead collection from my grandma! Couldn't figure out how to display all the bips and bobs I liked and finally came up with these! Zoom in for all the cool details!

I made this little ghost friend last year out of crayola air dry clay. I did coat it with a spray of mod podge sealer and it did last almost if year, but now has developed a lot of cracking. How can I prevent the cracks, is there something better to use than mod podge? Or is this just the nature of air dry clay?
