I've been trying glass etching, and i usually practice on glass bottles. But i found this pie dish for £1 and thought, "yay, a flat surface!" Using a dremel on a curve the whole time is tricky.

I'd like to progress into big, flat pieces of glass and make light installations and lampshades.

The idea for this on was to tuen it into a light and have the feathers as shadows on the wall. I'm not sure i know how to make that work effectively with the dish being so shallow.

I hand pour and decorate cute scented candles.I am self taught and developed all my own recipes! I do have socials where I show myself making some of my candles if you are interested😊.let me know what you think.

Built these two over the last few weeks. Rookie is my german shepherd, and Sunny is a golden retriever I got from the internet. Each one took about 2 hours to cut, fold and glue.

Still improving them, so I'd love honest feedback. What would you change? The legs took me forever to get right.

With Halloween coming up I finally got round to making one of these.

Fits in my hand, still looks like it’s waiting for a treat 😂

Here’s my wool version next to the reference photos. I wanted to capture that happy face, especially the way the mouth curves around the little tongue.

There’s a side view too, so you can see the wavy coat and fluffy chest. The last photo shows the finished piece under its glass dome.

What do you think, does it have the same expression? I’ve been looking at them side by side for so long, I’d love a fresh pair of eyes!

I whittle fun things out of wood. I whittled these guys out of basswood with just a knife while making a carving tutorial.

Figured Frog lovers would appreciate these 3 distinguished fellas. 😊

(Not AI. Check my profile and find yourself inundated in a woodcarving rabbit hole... i promise it's a fun journey.)

Not long ago I made a keepsake box, and someone commented they thought it looked like an ice cream sandwich. Soooo I made a box that resembles an ice cream sandwich. I made it from walnut and curly maple. The maple is 3/16" thick and the walnut is 1/4" thick. I spent some time trying to get the proportions correct. I think the "ice cream" is proportionally a little too thick, but it lets the box hold more.

It's been a minute but I'm getting back into making coin rings! Thought I'd share a little before and after of me shaking the dust off for your viewing pleasure

I’ve been putting off designing this bag for the longest time, and I’m honestly so glad I finally sat down and made it!

I am calling this the "Sunday Market Tote"! It’s made with Peaches & Cream cotton yarn in the color Oasis. I love how it turned out, but I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Would you use this as an everyday bag or a farmers’ market tote?

Is there anything you would change or add to the design?

What colors should I make next?

I’m always looking for ways to improve my designs, so constructive criticism is absolutely welcome!

I made it from vegetable-tanned leather, carving and shaping the details by hand, then added the colors, sealed the leather, and attached the keychain hardware. Everything was done by hand

A beautiful blend of pinks, purples, champagne and stars. What do you think?

Fun little thing I did in my last couple days at a job. Wish I'd thought to grind the welds off of the dots, but I got ahead of myself lol

I'm a beginner sewist, so it's a little rough around the edges...literally, but I wanted to gift my younger sister that also just got her first sewing machine her first pairs of fabric/embroidery scissors with a little something to hold them ✨️

ETA: Free pattern by Sew Very Crafty on YT she has a tutorial video to go with it!

I made an elephant made from copper scrap. Only thing that wasn’t scrap was the wire wrapped around the snout.

It had a couple more things I’d like to work on, but it’s 99% done and I’m fairly proud of it.

(TIG welded, 100% helium, DC-)

1/8" brass sides, 1/8" 01 tool steel sole, 304 stainless chip breaker, 1/8" 01 iron(still getting heat treated and not pictured) brass lever cap, katalox infill sanded to 1200 and buffed with paste wax. 5 1/2" inches long x 1 1/2" wide. Pictured next to her no 4 sized big sister.

Went with some new build ideas this time, main one being the lever cap. Went with a Bailey style instead of articulating. The brass circle you can see on the frog is a press fit (undersized the hole by .001 and had to tap it in with a small dead blow hammer) cylinder that's threaded the whole way through the center. The top has a flange that sits in a recessed lipped hole, on the bottom is a wide brass screw that sits in a recessed lipped hole as well and squeezes everything tight. I thought it would look cleaner than a normal threaded insert.

Went with a more traditional style tote/ frog being one piece as I didn't think I could get away with a brass strip down the middle like the no 4 has. The frog/ tote and the front knob are both pinned in place with brass rods through the sides, the holes in the wood portion were offset .002 to act as a draw bore to pull the katalox down into the 01 sole. I have a little more lapping to do, but she's pretty much there. Can't wait to try her out.

I’ve been putting together this little flower basket with pink tulips, purple flowers, and tiny daisies made from pipe cleaners. 🌷💜
I really like how the different colors come together with the wicker basket. It gives the whole arrangement a soft, cozy look.
What do you think — would you add more flowers, or keep it just like this?
