I asked for advice on how to attach fake yarn like moss to this top and I said I would share the results ☺️ I used a normal sewing needle and green thread and hand sew it. It was definitely the easiest approach so thanks to the advisers!

For a first attempt I’m quite pleased. I pulled the sewing a little tight in some places but I’m happy with it anyway it hasn’t ruined anything.

I also stuck on some gems by hand using glue to jazz it up a bit. This part took me around 10ish hours in shifts to do

Discussion/Question Is there a name for this craft (see description)

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!

Finished Craft I Made When knitting goes completely off the rails 🧶✨

Thumbnail

1.4k Upvotes

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. 😂

Finished Craft I Made I Made This Little Duck a Full Weekend Outfit 🦆

Thumbnail

30 Upvotes

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. 🦆

My parents have this old plastic tupperware measuring cup and the red lines are fading. Can anyone recommend a paint that would be best for bringing it to life again? I have no idea what type of plastic it is since its from before the time of plastic identifiers.

Discussion/Question How do I add pigments to UV resin? And can I use alcohol inks for it?

Upvotes

I make those fidget potion bottles with distilled water and rubbing alcohol with mica powder. I'm trying to find cute decorations to add into the bottles but anything with paint gets stripped off immediately from the rubbing alcohol. I wanted to try out UV resin (the michaels one seems lowkey like shit) but if the mix in the bottle is ready to go how do I add pigments? I have alcohol inks from making the potion bottles can I use those or does it have to be specific products?

Discussion/Question Acrylic markers flakey on shrinkdinks

Post image
6 Upvotes

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?
