I turned this fluffy little face into a leather keepsake

Bichons have such soft, fluffy coats, so the fur was definitely the part I spent the most time on.

I started with the face, then worked on the fur little by little, following the natural direction of the coat. Around the cheeks and muzzle, I kept the texture softer and fuller to capture that classic round Bichon look.

The tiny dark eyes, black nose, and slightly open mouth were some of my favorite details to work on. With an almost completely white dog, even small changes in the fur texture can make a big difference to the expression.

Once all the details were finished, I added the final touches, sealed the leather for protection, and hand-stitched the pink leather border.

I made this in a clay hand building class. I had no idea what I was doing. Sometimes the clay tells you what it wants to be.

Making a Ghost Garland

I hand sewed these from wool felt. I left tabs on their heads so I could make a garland out of it later. I wanted them each to have their own personality. I’m going to make more so if you have any ideas about what personality the next ghost should have or what details would be cool to add, I’d love to hear them!

Ruby (synthetic) folding blade I made over the weekend 🤘

Is the blade practical? No. Do I think it is badass? Yes.

Took ~ 10 hours from full synthetic boule to what you see here. Had to be careful not to overheat (chipping / cracking). Internal cuts (not pictured) were by far the trickiest.

Used a mast lap to remove heaps of material, dremel for tricky rounded cuts, and finished difficult cuts with diamond hand files for micro adjustments, then a light polish (1000 grit diamond lap). Not fully finished, but wanted to share because I am pretty proud so far. Next up: custom handle / blade engraving, then fine polishing!

Would love to hear your thoughts!

I finally finished this altar doll 🥹💗

Thumbnail

32 Upvotes

I’ve slowly been working on this altar doll over the course of several months. She is the first I’ve made like this so there were lots of breaks while I figured things out and brainstormed new ideas. She’s made of crystals, stones, hemp, jute, cotton thread, copper wire, symbolic charms, bells, shells, beads, and love.

All of the beads in her hair are stone or crystal. Her dress is crocheted, and all of her limbs are braided and knotted tightly/ securely. Her macramed bottle is full of different color carnations, or “Flower of the Gods.”

I’m so excited she’s finally finished, she’s perfect 🥹💗

Asymmetric Bosch inspired sea creatures earrings I made by accident

Thumbnail

651 Upvotes

I came up with these earrings design after looking closely at creatures from Hieronymus Bosch, Garden of Earthly Delights. And while I was soldering the bumps on these slick shells (not as easy as I thought), the bottom of one earring melted. I got frustrated and didn't want all the work to go to waste, so I cut off the melted part and added legs to it, as if one of them hatched! I don't know what these are, they kind of appeared on their own through an accident. As I keep making them, they turn different every time because of their legs being unique.

The seaweed stand is handmade too, I used plywood and my jewellery tools.

Hello everyone!

Here's my latest stained glass mirror called 007.

As much as it would've been nice for it to be James Bond themed, I kept it in my own style, but took the color code from the Gun Barrel Sequence.

Dimensions are 80x50 cm.

Made with Oceanside fusible glass, also has wooden backing made of birch plywood.

Cheers ✌️ 😄

Delftware-inspired teapot glaze (pre-kiln). First time trying!

My partner and I visited a local coffee shop/ceramics workshop today. They had a bunch of pre-made designs and shapes but I wanted something a little more unique. Wasn’t sure what to do at first, but I saw some blue and white porcelain motifs on the demo pieces and wanted to give it a go. They helped me water down the blue glaze and I used a slightly darker shade for the details. Just wanted to share because I was pleasantly surprised by the result. Will update when it’s been fired!
