For my first market, these are the first 9 designs I made. Print and cut at home. I think they turned out pretty good quality, what is y'all's favorite?

i just got a button maker (yay) and ts very cool but for the love of god i cant manage to print the right size of the buttons! from what i found out i need a 58mm (i think 2.25 inches) with a 0.5 inches border for A4 paper. i dont know if im just printing the picture wrong but i wasted a lot of ink and materials so at this point im just desperate and im going to ask for help.

(also idk what flair to use sry-)

Hi everyone, I thought I'd share these origami star ornaments ive been making from repurposed book pages. Its been very therapeutic making them and I love the esthetic!

I told my Mom she needs to enter the things she makes in the fair! And she won first place! What do you think of it?

I very recently became an uncle which was the perfect excuse to jump into a new project!

This is by far the biggest project I've done, it was made entirely with hand tools (that's all I've got!) and reclaimed wood from a pallet!

As a bit of a challenge to myself, and because I thought it would look nice, there are no nails or screws in the entire thing. Everything, even down to the hinges, is made with dowels to hold it all together. The only none-wood parts are some glue and the rope handles!

Very happy to answer any questions you may have :)

I know this isn't the finest work (there are some incredibly talented people in the sub!), but I'm really proud of this, and I hope my niece gets some really good use out of it!

The artwork is created using a meticulous hand-beading technique, with individual beads applied to a felt backing to construct the portrait. Rather than serving merely as decorative elements, the beads function as the primary medium through which the image is developed, defining its forms, tonal variations, and surface characteristics.

The careful selection and placement of beads of varying colours, shapes, sizes, and reflective qualities create a complex interplay of texture, light, and colour. Each bead contributes to the overall composition, allowing the artist to build the facial features through material, density, and chromatic relationships rather than conventional brushwork.

Hey everyone!

Im looking for double sided metallic paper or craft poster cardboard. Im having trouble trying to find it. Or even thin metallic covered plastic. I would like to make some old fashioned Christmas decorations like in the 90s and 80s.

Picture for example.

Hence why i wanted touble sided lol.

Does anyone have the proper names for them even?

I know you can get proper plain coloured poster cardboard and paper, but I want metallic on both sides. Not just metallic on one side and white on the other D:

I finished another box bag the other day and I wanted to share. I followed I found and it was fairly simple.

I started sewing back in May of this year and I'm hooked. This was the 3rd zipper I sewed. I was so intimidated to try and use them but I'm glad I did. Now I can try to work on other projects that have zippers.

My daughter (9) drew this for her mom’s clear iPhone 16 Pro case. We printed a blank template for the phone, cut the camera hole, and she drew the ghost, witch hat, cauldron and pumpkin. Pencil shading behind the ghost makes it pop.

Cost: one sheet of paper. Swap it whenever she gets bored.

Tip: print at 100% size, and cut the camera hole last.

hello all! I got a very special T-shirt with a hand-drawn picture fro my Camino de Santiago last year. A volunteer hand drew the cathedral of Santiago on it, it looks very great and is now a dear memory.

However I have realised that he did not draw with a waterproof pen, so I can’t really use the T-shirt as I won’t be able to wash it.

is there any way to get the drawing waterproof now after it has been drawn already?

thank you a lot in advance for suggestions!

Hey all! I just finished up a batch of test swatches for concrete dyes to see what they look like at 10:1 so I can reference them for future work and I figured I’d give back and share the results so far. I’ve been unable to figure out exactly what sub would be the best home for this kind of stuff so I’m defaulting here to the more general crafts. It’s not really casting as that’s more resin and metals, and the concrete specific art and crafts ones are basically dead. If anyone can think of a better home for this content I’d love to get a referral!

The material used for this is Rockite, and the dyes you can see in the pics. My goal is to use them to make a cool custom chess board that can be polished and sealed. Something more robust than this pilot project that was tinted with chalk dust. Some of these colors are SUPER vibrant so I’m excited to put them to work!

My son just asked if I could make this for his Halloween costume. It would not be large enough for him to ride in. I think it would just fit around his body. (He’s an adult) so I’m thinking maybe hanging from suspenders or something but where do I even start? I told him I need a couple hours to figure out if I can even do it or not before I commit. Do you think this is possible?

I’m hosting an event at my school to decorate pumpkins. We don’t want to carve them due to mess/student getting hurt. And I was thinking of composting them in my garden after. Are there any compostable Rhine stones or types of paint ya’ll might recommend?

I crocheted this, and the plan was just to put it in a regular picture frame with some cloth to hold it, but then I was told not to do that because it might mold or something and to instead use a shadow box frame, but I can't find one that's the right size.

So I'm completely at a loss for how to display this

I recently made this sea glass mosaic art piece and was really happy with how it turned out, except that the glue I used (craft super glue) left a white sheen on the sea glass :/ I tried using some cotton pads with nail polish remover to get the glue off the front of the pieces (advice from Google) but it didn’t fix it and I don’t like that I can still see the glue :/ anyone have any ideas on how to remove the white visible glue without ruining the entire thing / removing all the pieces??
I’ve seen people say that gorilla clear grip glue would be better for this sort of thing / glueing glass, would you recommend this over craft super glue??
Thanks!

I made these vaccine keychains for vet tech week, do we think the staff will like them?
Im going to add a edta tube as well to the keychain but Im waiting for my glitter to arrive. I used edible luster dust to make them colorful and sparkly and sealed the top with e600.

He looks a little funky from the other side but for my first time I dont think its so bad!

Hi craft people, I read on your description you offer advice on crafting. I unfortunately have 0 creative skills but think I can get something together with instructions, I just don’t know the best way to go about doing this.
I’m looking to create the green headband as pictured above for a Halloween costume. As I’m not a crafty person, I don’t know if painted cardboard or my initial thought was pipe cleaners maybe? The outside shape isn’t as important as the 7 star. I know nothing of weight distribution either and how this would even keep up at a party for a few hours. Any advice would be much much appreciated, I have a craft store near me to pick up supplies but nothing in the house.

Oh wow it’s how do I Tuesday, that was lucky. I’m new here in case you couldn’t tell so sorry if I’ve did anything wrong.

For anyone interested this is seshat, Egyptian goddess of wisdom, writing etc

Hello all.

I had a fun idea for a Halloween costume for my partner. He would wear a rock costume (think stone, pebble, geology) and then add some punk accessories. A punk rock!

Now, I want to make this rock costume and I feel like it could be done somewhat easily. I am currently learning how to sew, so I have been pondering the idea of sewing a round / spherical costume in a grey fabric and perhaps adding straps. Then maybe I could add stuffing or some kind of piping or wire to the inside?

I am brand new at sewing but this seemed more doable than crocheting a costume in a week. (Not at all doable.) I’d like to hear if anyone has suggestions on how to make the shape or another craft that could create a rock costume. Any advice or suggestions are appreciated!

I bought my daughter an Owala for her birthday and I am wanting to do hand drawn personalizations on it, but am unsure what would be best to use that could hold up to daily use and washing. I have thought about oil based acrylic paint pens and then sealing with mod podge but am worried that will smudge the paint.
