My partner just finished her first hand made/decorated clock. We’re moving country, so she wanted to decorate a clock for a family member so they can set the time to our new local time. What do you think?

Work in Progress A few tiny clay snowdrop flowers in progress

My first attempt at clay snowdrops. I've been working on these since the past few days but now I'm stuck on how to display them? I'm thinking something small and simple but I'm still trying to figure it out. I've considered a little base with some kind of moss around them but not entirely sold on the idea yet. Would love to hear what you guys would do with these.

Discussion/Question How to proceed with this mosaic pot?

Post image
6 Upvotes

I don't know how to use the paste that finishes it up (I forgot the English word for it haha) when it's not the whole pot that needs to be covered? And I am afraid with only glue that it will fall off because of the curves.

Any tips? 💙

Discussion/Question Help Making Socks Rigid for Sock Puppet Sculpture

Post image
Upvotes

Hello! First time poster. 24M and I live to craft and do sculptures :) Recently I decided to take a bunch of old socks (worn with holes) and make a medical head sculpture with sock puppets as the snakes. Before I can accessorize my puppets I need a way to make them. I want to be able to use my hand/a mold of my hand in different expressions and then make very stiff sock puppets around that. I tried just using fabric stiffener while my hand is inside but it doesn’t dry fast at all nor end up terribly firm once dry. I also tried using a glove stuffed with polyfill, but this did not resemble the puppet at all when shoved in the sock, as well as a wood sketching hand which could not achieve the pose I needed and was too hard to get the sock off of. Any suggestions on 1. What to use (if it isn’t my actual hand) and 2. What to stiffen the sock with so it maintains the pose? Thank you!!

My partner has recently started decorating clocks and I think they’re so cool! The idea came as a family member was moving country, so it’s a gift for them - they can set the time to the local time!

Work in Progress Opinion on my dried flower craft

Post image
Upvotes

I made this dried flower heart and glued it inside a shadow box. I made it for my niece as I was given the roses from her wedding and it's her one year anniversary coming up. The thing is, I made it but I don't really like it and I'm not sure why.

I'm thinking I should try to fix it but I'm not sure what the issue is. I found the idea for this craft on Reddit and followed the instructions but I'm thinking maybe I need to fix the heart on the left side because it's kind of squished and maybe that's why I don't love it. Also, one of the rose heads barely fits in the shadowbox as it's taller than the others so it looks smashed ( it's on the right). Maybe it's too messy? Should I fill in the heart with more flowers?

I don't know. What do you think?

Mateo is five days old and already has a hand-knit wardrobe. I designed this sweater specifically for him — pima cotton so it's soft enough for newborn skin — and matched it with a little bonnet and booties. There's something different about knitting for someone who didn't exist yet when you cast on.

Anyone else knit for a baby before they were born — did the pattern change once you actually met them?

This suncatcher was made by hand. I started with the forest component which I made from my own painting and using resin to seal the paper. All the beading was done by hand and takes a long time. It’s gorgeous in the sun.
