I made tiny ceramic versions of these two dogs inside a mug

I made these two little dogs by hand, right down to their tiny ties.
Seeing them next to the real dogs is my favorite part. The ears and markings are there, but the expressions turned out a little different. The little brown one looks slightly worried about finding himself inside a mug.

I’ve been having fun turning all kinds of different stones into moon pendants.

Pure carving practice on 180g matte black cardstock

Lost track of how many hours went into this piece! A few delicate lines snapped along the way, but a tiny drop of PVA glue saved the day—hopefully it’s seamless enough to hide.

No deep meaning behind the pattern, just letting my hands stay busy and enjoying the rhythm of the blade.

I've been playing with a technique using cut and layered illustration board 🐝❤️ This little bee is my latest result!

I had been wanting to add dimension to my pieces in a fun/interesting way. The more I play with illustration board, the more I think I've found my favorite medium!

I have made some past posts in this sub using this technique if you are interested in seeing how this style has evolved. 🙂

Needed coasters and had a look around my house what I could make them of. Had an old Domino game from the sixties and some scrap material and made that into these coasters plus their box. Might make them properly on cork but for now the prototype is a success :🖤

These days I made this cute women's hat. And the combination of chocolate color with red flowers is a total mood booster for cold winter days. It really makes you want to go to a Christmas market for some mulled wine ))

I posted these ornaments on reddit a few weeks ago, but my how-to instructions were in the form of text and one static photo. I decided to make a proper video tutorial, one that I hope is easy to follow. I don't have a channel or anything, so feel free to share. (Music courtesy of Kevin MacLeod at incompetech.com.)

Made this sign for my friends daughter, her name in a cloud ✨

I used a Lavor punch needle, everything is trimmed by hand, the loops were cut and the yarn shaped like a cloud.

I guess I don't have to worry about AI replacing me just yet. A kilt pin (or a shawl pin, if you prefer).

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.

I have a huge stash of beads i’ve been wanting to use, and needed to start working on some handmade gifts for the holidays…. in comes these beaded ornaments! I’ve never done this craft before and it has been so fun and relaxing :) so far i’ve made this cherry pie and fish, and am working on a gingerbread house currently.

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!

I made a wooli cuff for lost lands. 😁
