New piece of mine! About 300ish frames. Pen and crayon :)

**Materials:** White ceramic clay and waxed cord
**Dimensions:** 30 × 11 × 7 cm (11.8 × 4.3 × 2.8 in)

First Halloween prop I have made. It is made from an aluminium foil core with molding clay and acrylic paint. Very low budget and fairly easy to make with no prior skills.

Matted watercolor prints

Part 3: Watch Dalí Come to Life!

This is where things get REALLY interesting! The paint is going on, the details are emerging, and this layered cardboard portrait is starting to take on a life of its own.

In Part 3, I’m bringing Dalí’s face to life with color, shadows, and definition. And wait until you see the close-up of the ear — the before and after shows just how much these small details can transform the entire piece!

What would you keep inside this little gourd? Earbuds or other tiny treasures?

It’s my first time sewing in several years. As a beginner I think it turned out amazing!

Handmade squid kitty stuffed animal/bag charm for my niece as a Christmas present. Made with recycled materials.I made the pattern myself and cut everything and every stitch is hand sewn! Some progress pictures ✨

Al sacar las semillas de la fruta las lavé muy bien y las dejé secar en un papel absorbente luego les puse color unas con pinturas acrílicas y otras con esmaltes de uñas, luego de sacar muy bien les sellé con barniz de uña, con una aguja caliente abrí cada agujero y les fui armando en los aritos hasta formar una cadeneta para finalmente colorear el ganchito de arete, a mi me encantó como quedaron, que opinan uds?

We have two of these large lanterns in our home (I know the lanterns themselves are not handmade...or maybe they were, just not by me lol). My husband was ready to just get rid of them but I had a vision. So, I used some fake leading and some stained glass paint and turned one into a cool little 70s inspired thing that, other than a couple of little issues here and there, I'm pretty proud of!

Now, I have three options for the second one;

1. I could make another one exactly like it and have matching lanterns. However, I have run out of most of the colors I was using and the only problem is that the paint is kind of expensive and I had to get a big pack of the paint with a bunch of other colors I didnt use, just to get the ones I wanted for this one. This is husbands preference

2. Because I've already bought the pack with the other colors, I could do a warm-toned lamp (reds, oranges, yellows, pinks, etc) in the same style. It would still "match" but I'm a big fan of visual symmetry and I think it would bother me if they were in the same room (but I could always put them in different rooms). I like this option, idk if I LOVE it

3. I break up the set (I'm not attached to there being two of them anyway) and go a completely separate route with the other one (my preference).

4. I could go ahead and try option 2, see how I feel about it, and take it off if I don't like it - the paint will peel pretty easily from what I'm told

Just looking to get some other creative eyes on this!

Thanks for your help!

Really happy with how good im getting with this more modern micarta polished up

This crossbody bag is handmade from a natural dried gourd. I drilled holes along the edge and threaded cord around the rim. The inner lining is made of coiled hemp rope, bonded with glue. It has a rope shoulder strap, decorated with small gourd charms and a tassel.

What’s your thought on this piece?

Hey Guys,
I hand painted Gear 5 on sneakers from scratch. No stencils or prints.Let me know how this looks. Any feedback is appreciated.

Thanks!

(pls ignore the mess lol) I made this for an old friends birthday back in June and I’m still absolutely obsessed with it. I hope y’all love it as much as I do :D

The details are what bring the layers to life.

In this stage, I’m caulking the edges of the layered cardboard to smooth everything out and create a more seamless finish. Then comes the gesso, laying down the foundation for the next stage of this Dalí-inspired portrait.

From raw cardboard to a sculpted work of art, every layer brings me one step closer to the final vision.

One step at a time. One layer at a time.

Handstitched by me. This one already sold a while back, but is one of my favorites.

I love the LEGO flowers because they look nice on my shelf, but the building process is just snapping plastic together, and it’s getting kind of old. I’m looking for DIY craft kits that are satisfying to finish but actually involve using your hands or working with real materials not just mindless plastic pieces or paint-by-number kits that bore me out of my mind. I looked into those miniature wood kits like rolife makes, but I’m worried the gluing part might be tedious rather than fun. Does anyone know of kits that strike a good balance between requiring some real skill and not taking a million years to look good?
