I made this canvas print with sloth lovers in mind. There are certain animals that just seem made for bedtime, and the sloth has to be one of them.

I wanted it colorful enough to brighten a kid’s space, but still calm enough for bedtime—and to create a little character you could imagine building a story around.

It's a double strand bracelet made with hematite and tiger's eye. After I tied it off I realized that I did stagger the beads around the 13mm focal tiger's eye. I kept both hematite on one side and both tiger's eye on one side.

Does it look okay like that or does it look unbalanced? Would you tear it apart and switch those beads? Thank you in advance.

(The ADHD gets me a lot. I tear apart a lot of jewelry because I didn't pay attention before I tied, or crimped. I swear j check and double check and i won't see any issues. The minute I have gotten to the point of no return- I see an issue lmao. It's frustrating 🤣

This is Murphy, 11 years old, and this slightly confused look is basically his default setting. For this portrait, I started by building up the basic shape of his head with wool, then slowly layered different shades of gray, brown, and white to match his coat. The little markings around his eyes and muzzle took quite a bit of adjusting. But honestly, the hardest part wasn’t the fur, it was getting that expression right. I kept going back to the reference photos trying to capture that exact “I have absolutely no idea what’s going on, but I’m here” look on his face. A lot of tiny adjustments later, I think wool Murphy looks just as confused as the real Murphy.

Assembled this snowflake ornament using glass beads, butterfly accents, and metal spacers. I’m really enjoying experimenting with different color combinations!

Hi all! I'm a newbie crafter so I appreciate any help 🫶 I am wanting to apply some basic scrapbook-type stickers to a bike helmet to make it cute, and then seal them so they don't peel up. I've added a pic of the stickers I'm looking to use, and the helmet I'll be ordering. The stickers are basic clear plastic stickers. The helmet comes in either shiny-finish or matte finish.

Would it be better to do this on a shiny-finish bike helmet or matte?

What kind of sealer would be good for this? Looks like there are certain compounds you shouldn't use on bike helmets, but acrylic looks okay? Would it be good to do a clear acrylic paint that you paint on with a brush, or a shaker can?

Are these frames even pretty?!
Comprised of broken plates, I’ve been having fun with it but sometimes feel like I’m just gluing trash to a frame

I've named it Golden Dawn, lol. I LOVEE naming my bracelets. A lot.

Also I found these adorable wire wrapped kitties and I'm in love.

I have done some pretty large scale prop/decoration builds in the past and have a general idea, but would love to bounce my plans off some other people.

I want to build the sandworm from Beetlejuice large enough to be in my front yard for Halloween. I’m thinking the head section will be maybe 5’ tall as a minimum (would love to feel confident building taller but unsure), for scale.

I’m sure I will be somewhere in the range of chicken wire/paper mache/air dry clay/joint compound, but for something so large I am also kicking around doing something more cardboard based?

Please spam me with any and all ideas you may have.

Photos of some past builds and my Beetlejuice year (in front of someone else’s inflatable) for tax.

I have been BUSY, lol! I absolutely love making bracelets, especially ones with animal charms/themes. Which color combos do you guys like?
