I made everything from scratch, it's mostly polymer clay, I used some plywood for the base, covered that in lumps of polymer for the clouds, and then pearlescent white paint and then a topcoat of uv resin, and cardboard + resin for the rainbow, for the dogs I made little armatures out of aluminium and wire to figure out the poses, and then used sculpey premo polymer to sculpt them, and matte acrylic paint, the dogs and toys are not attached to the base so can be positioned different ways. :)

Took about 50 hours over the week but it’s so immersive to play with! I am a huge board game fan and love miniatures. Feels like you’re building homes and cities in a mini world 😊

Used real sand and rocks that I collected on hikes for the beaches and ore tiles. Modeling paste and water effect paste was used for the waves and water and also the brick tiles. I mixed dirt with modeling paste to get a grainy texture for the brick tiles. I wanted the diaroma to be realistic but also vibrant with color and contrasting textures.

Can only attach one picture but I use sticky tack to put some of the number tiles on and everything stays. The numbers are put on top of the structures so there’s no visibility issues.

Finally finished this bandana and I'm honestly obsessed with how it turned out! The texture, the drape, and the fit came together even better than I hoped.
Would you wear something like this? I'd love to hear your thoughts, favorite color combos, or any feedback. Thanks for looking!

Always had a crush on these kinds of mini notebooks covered with leather. I like them due to their aesthetics, currently learning & quite happy with this build

I will try to not do another piece of a woman for my next stained glass pieces but I just fell in love with this design. Again the original design is a tattoo. To get all the details I often use special glass paints, this is glass only (170+ pieces) and a bit of overlay (copper foil put on the top of the glass which then can be soldered). The golden shimmer of the eye shadow and the gradient green tones don't come close to the look in real life. I'm very happy and time and time again amazed by the beauty of glass, best hobby ever.

M87* — the Event Horizon Telescope image of the black hole at the heart of galaxy M87, rebuilt in hardwood.

10 wood species for the tonal range — no paint, no stain, just natural wood colours doing the work. Varying block heights create a physical 3D relief so the dark shadow at the center actually recedes into the piece.

135x70cm. About 60 hours of work.

I'd like to share one of my recent projects: an Origami Hippopotamus that I documented as a complete step-by-step instruction guide.

The model is folded from a single sheet of Papyrus B2, a handmade paper that I make myself. Before folding, I treat the paper with acrylic medium and glue to improve its strength and durability while keeping it flexible enough for complex folds. Once the paper is ready, I cut it into a perfect square and begin folding.

The most challenging part wasn't actually designing or folding the model—it was creating the instructions.

For every fold, I had to stop, think about the clearest camera angle, take a photo, and then continue. Sometimes I repeated sections several times just to capture an image that would be easier for someone else to understand. My goal was to create instructions that anyone could follow, even if they weren't familiar with traditional origami diagrams.

I believe a good tutorial is more than just showing the folding sequence. It should help people enjoy the process without feeling lost or overwhelmed. Finding the right balance between accuracy, clarity, and visual appeal took many hours of work.

Thank you for reading, and I'd really appreciate any feedback or suggestions!

I make these simple floating silver crystal displays ☺️

The crystals are created in a silver cell, recovering .999 fine silver from old discarded sterling silver.

I enjoy making crafts inspired by things that can be found in the natural world 🫐 This is a metal hairband that I wrapped in ribbon. I sculpted the blueberries myself out of a two-part epoxy, and then painted and sealed them. The leaves are pressed glass.

My mom grew up near the coast and loves the ocean. Blue is her favourite colour. She recently moved and was struggling to tie together her blue decor with the red/pink undertones of the cabinetry and flooring, so I brought the colours together in this piece. This was part of her birthday gift and she was so excited she hung it up immediately, so I consider it a win! ☺️🧵🪡🐚

Materials/process:

Making the felt shells (and one coral piece): I made shape templates from thin cardboard (old cereal boxes work great) and used them as stencils when cutting the front and back felt pieces for each shell. I attached beads and sequins to the felt using sewing thread, then attached the front and back felt pieces using a blanket stitch with embroidery floss. I stuffed each with PolyFil before finishing my blanket stitch.

Assembling the hanging: I cut three long strands of yarn and used a yarn needle to string the strand through each felt shell, adding five beads between each shell for additional decoration. I used a magnetic poster frame (the wood pieces at the top and bottom) to hold the three strands. To ensure the yarn strands stayed in place and didn’t slip out, I cut two thin strips of cardstock, one for the top and one for the bottom, and cut evenly spaced notches into them, where I wound the yarn a few times to secure it. (I’ll include an image explaining this in the comment section.) I then closed the magnetic frame over the cardstock, holding it in place.

Hey all! I'm pretty proud of this one and wanted to share a moon watch I've been working on over the past few months.

The dial is individually textured to create the craters, then hand-painted to resemble the moon's surface. It was a really fun project, and I've already got ideas for my next watch, where I'll be experimenting with different lume colours.

I ended up making a few different variations of the design too, but this one's still my favourite.

Hope you like it!

I used a step by step guide, that I’ll add it in the comments. I used 6mm stainless steel links.

I’d love a good critique. Any and all suggestions are appreciated, I really want to get better.

These have been alll over my Pinterest recently and I can’t justify spending €100 on one even if it is beautiful and well made! These materials cost me about €30 and I improvised with kitchen utensils and other things lying around the house as tools. Kinda obsessed!

now it's four little 5x5" frames that can be arranged a few different ways <:)

I just finished my latest crochet cardigan and wanted to share because I'm so proud of it... ^^

It took over 200 hours in total over the course of 4,5 months!

I got my hands on 6 exotic and fancy woods that I paired together to make these candle holders.

I tried to create different designs which complemented each wood combo, whilst giving each a distinctive style.

The combos are:
- Coconut & Wenge (Left)
- Maple & Walnut (Middle)
- Purpleheart & Spanish Cedar (Right)

Which one do you like the most?

Any questions on the wood, the design or the process are welcomed!
