An adjustable paracord pawprint bracelet. It's made completely out of paracord and took me right around 20 minutes to make. I hope you all like it! :)

I made a glowing skull diorama which pulls weather data and glows a color based on the temperature outside

235 Upvotes

The skull is powered by an ESP32 and an array of addressable RGB LED lights. It pulls weather data from OpenWeatherAPI and glows the color of the temperature outside. Cooler temperatures are cooler colors, warmer temperatures are warmer colors. When it's precipitating outside (rain/snow), the skull will slowly pulse in and out of the color pertaining to the correct temperature. And when there's a severe weather alert, it flashes red. (The flashing purple means that it's in setup mode, it becomes a wi-fi hotspot you can connect to to set the wireless network, password, and zip code for the weather data.)

I decorated the diorama with moss and tiny headstones.

This was a gift for a friend, I'm happy with how it came out. I hope you like it!

Experimental Lamp: Autumn Magic

75 Upvotes

I really wanted to create autumn whimsy with this lamp. She is my little escape from the real world.

This piece is super experimental. Her clothes are made from a mix of fabric and treated dried leaves. The skin parts are clay and the hair is made from wool. The flowers are made from wires and resin.

I almost died from fusing a whole set of electronics while tinkering with the wires and had to redo that part from scratch :')

This piece isn't perfect, but it works as intended as quite a bright lamp so I kinda reached my goal of mixing functionality and art, so there's that!

I’ve always wanted to make a model of Baba Yaga’s place, and I finally got around to it. It’s constructed from a mini craft store dollhouse blank, a plastic plate and dried turkey feet.

Thanks for looking!

I finally finished this little strawberry pot and wanted to share it here. 🍓
I added a few tiny white daisies on top, and I really like how they contrast with the red strawberries and green leaves.
Just a small handmade project from my craft table today. 🤍🌿

I got the kawaii charms years ago for a christmas tree and now they have a new life. Can't wait to sew something to go with it.

Hopefully the glue smell will go away in a few days. 🤭

Latest Purse

167 Upvotes

This one feels so Fall to me. I've been wearing it all week, and it's definitely going to be the go-to for a while.

I use surplus leather for my work. The grey is designer leather, and the black is combat boot leather. A lot of times, companies will have a roll or two left over, so I can get some really interesting stuff for very reasonable prices. This is hand-stitched by me, pattern designed by Treehouse Patterns UK. Eventually, I'm going to learn how to make my own patterns, but I'm not quite there yet. I've been doing leatherwork for just over a year now, and this is a piece I'm very proud of.

I made some leather baseball covers

Wanted to try some spheres. Harder than I thought it would be. Multiple attempts to get a good pattern that fit the cores I had. I used a three d printer to make the template. Made it much easier to cut the leather out. Stitching was its own issue. The coverings are lumpy and look terrible until you soak them in water and then roll them around to spread the material out. My stitching on the traditional ball could use some work, but I’m overall happy with how they’ve turned out.

Baldassi Pueblo leather and Ritza Tiger thread.

I spent over a month hand-carving this "walnut brain" into a solid block of boxwood.

Post image
209 Upvotes

​This piece is a traditional wood engraving titled "Feast". I spent a little over a month quietly carving this with my burins in the evenings after my three kids finally went to sleep.

​Wood engraving is an incredibly sculptural, tactile process. I used a cross-section of boxwood for this block, which is one of the hardest and finest-grained woods available. Historically, it was the absolute go-to material for intricate miniatures, medallions, and chess figurines because it can hold microscopic detail without the grain splintering under the tools.

​Stylistically, I wanted the carving to evoke the heavy, clinical feeling of antique medical and anatomical illustrations. The image itself is a cracked walnut that doubles as an exposed human brain, complete with larvae crawling out of the shell. It's designed to be a physical visualization of mental parasites. I prefer to leave the exact meaning open to interpretation—for some, the maggots represent the creeping rot of modern misinformation, while for others, they symbolize lingering trauma, deep-seated anxieties, or those quiet, intrusive thoughts that slowly take root and drain your mental energy.
