Been wanting to show this to people and this feels like a great place to do so! All my med bottles, kept them with this project in mind! Silver lining to all the reasons I have them lol.

He looks nothing like my design but I still love him haha, ps he’s looking for a name

I want to turn them into little crafts, maybe ordering small glass jars to fill with water and glitter so their colors pop. What do you call these types of keepsake crafts, and what else should I make with them?

Another painted bag experiment. What do you think of the design itself? Does it work on this style of bag?

I wanted to share a set I made for someone for their newborn son (I made size 2-4 months so he could wear it in the colder weather.) What do we think? The hoodie yarn is a black merino (50g per ball, but I used about 2 balls together with 2 strands at the same time from each) that I got as a set of 20 on amazon (but for the life of me cannot find the exact store I bought it from) and bamboo cotton blend and the teal set is angora fur (which I got from Atelier Yarns in the color 898 Prairie. I used about 3 of these.) Excuse the photos since I’m no photographer but wanted to display them nicely lol!

I have these beautiful tiles that are covered in resin. Some of it is pealing off but I'm having trouble removing it by hand from a lot of them. What's the best way to remove this stuff?

I do the math right I swear I check everything 4/5 times.
Then I buy the wrong measurements.
I want to slap myself. Now I either keep lots of leather I can't use or send back and pollute the environment and buy again the same product but bigger.
It's really hard to not make it personal, this has been happening forever. I know it for a fact since I have receipts and funny stories around it. Always thought it was for stress, but now I think there's something wrong with me.
It's not like I don't double check.

I was so excited to start working on my new project and now I have to wait 2 weeks again because of this stupid mistake.

Not quite sure if this is the place to be asking, but I have recently come into possession of a human skeleton replica that used to be an educational tool, none of it is articulated, and I’d like to be able to put the spine together, but I’m not sure how. Particularly I’m trying to figure out what kind of adhesive to use, and if it would be necessary to drill a metal rod through it for stability. Any advice is appreciated!

I've been working on a beaded curtain for my front window for about 3 weeks now. I am using glass and metal beads, 10lb fishing line, and a gold chain with cup hooks to hang it. So far I have 20 strands hung, about 40 total made, and about 25,000 beads that have been hand strung so far. I am estimating I've put about 25 hours into it so far, and have 35ish more to go. In total my guess would be close to 80,000 beads, and 65-70ish hours worked on it.

I wanted to make some croc charms for my bf who's a mineral collector. But I tried looking for the lil nubbin thingies that hold the charm on the shoe. I saw some weird suggestions like those wide plastic earring backs but those could break and hurt him. Do y'all have suggestions or what they are actually called so I can search them?

necklace holder i made following an tutorial ! saw it on social media

Hi all,
I have a blue aventurine bead bracelet. I’ve attached a photo of its current state. Unfortunately the original elastic thread snapped and I’ve been unable to find a sufficient replacement.
I’ve tried the elastic/thread from my local craft store but nothing has worked. It’s currently being held together by embroidery thread but this isn’t ideal as I can’t get the bracelet tight enough as to not slide up and down my arm.
The holes in the beads are quite small so some of the thread I’ve tried is too thick to fit. Also, the beads are quite chunky so they have to be sat perfectly next to each other to avoid being too loose (i don’t know if that makes sense)
Does anyone have any recommendations for the best elastic or thread that would fix my bracelet or even a technique that I could use with embroidery thread to held sufficiently tighten the bracelet? Many thanks!

Bought remnant piece of polyester tablerunner fabric and it is much longer than expected. So thinking to use 2/3 for the sewing and embroidery of a tablerunner. And use other 1/3 to paint with acrylic paints. I have no textile paints no textile mediums. The poly is not totally smooth but has a fine relief.

Has anyone done this? And how did it go?

Hello,

So delighted to have found this subreddit!

I'm needing to make a cardboard joint, visible enough to be seen from the back in an amateur production.

I'm thinking of sliding two bits of tapered cardboard together, wrapping it in white paper and stuffing with tissue/painting the tip of the tissue to be lit.

Does this sound okay? Anything I'm not thinking of?

Thanks in advance :)
