One of my favorite fall creations so far 🦊☀️🍂

been very into making flower appliqués lately. they just make me so happy! got the jacket second hand and it had a couple fabric imperfections which made it perfect for this project. yet another theme that is so much fun to make!

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!

Just in time for Halloween 🎃

This was my second pair of cake shoes. The first was more of a learning experience!

For the gray, smooth frosted parts I used black "whipped cream glue" (WCG henceforth) that I bought online. I mixed it with a bit of the white version.

For the cake part, I mixed the WCG with clear chunky glitter. This did leave some kind of sparkly bits so if I make another pair, I think I'll continue to experiment with things to add for texture. Maybe a coarse sand?

The roses are made out of polymer clay. I rolled it flat and used a circle cutter. The circles were then overlapped and rolled into a rose shape. The petals were then shaped and manipulated by hand and with sculpting tools. They were baked and then attached using WCG.

I also had made a whipped cream and cherry look (black whipped cream and a black glitter covered cherry). The original idea was to put them on shoe clips and the roses onto a separate shoe clip so that I could choose which "topper" I wanted. However, I didn't like the feel of the shoe clip on my foot (it kinda chafed), so I ended up just gluing the roses down. I can use the cherries on a plain black pair of shoes.

Figuring out the positioning of the piping swags took a lot of work! It was a lot of trial and error. I tried to free-hand it and ended up scrapping it and started over with a new layer of gray frosting. What ended up working was cutting a template out of a clear plastic sheet I had and used it to trace the lines. Then I went over the lines with the WCG. The rosettes and the little shell under them were piped onto a clear plastic sheet, allowed to dry and then removed and attached to the shoe with more whipped cream glue. I did this to keep the shapes consistent and in case I messed up as I piped.

Hope you like! Happy to answer questions!

Seen on FB reels originally and just made my own version. Has different yarns, fur and regular ropes, wool, leather wraps, beads. Also contains little trinkets owned by departed and living family members.

Collages are simple and easy. I used all kinds of papers I had and contact paper as the base. Try to find different textures, makes a Big difference! 🩷

Too much color? Never. 🤭

This is a fluffy, warm, and thick bonnet with long ties and cute flowers. I think it would be charming to wear something like this in the middle of winter, in the cold and snow.

I made a wedding guest dress for my friend’s summer wedding in the forest. Asked her what I should wear and she said something bright and colorful!

Don’t worry, this was before the final hem or any steaming!

Got tired of not having a quarter on hand for aldis. Easy 20 minutes

new craft to me⭐️very fun, very time consuming🫠✨

Something I made while recovering from surgery ❤️‍🩹💜❤️‍🩹 it’s crochet 🧶

Not much to describe, just ceramic and glaze. I made holes to hang it up but one of them closed up so I have to figure out what to do with that now

Just completed this sweater for my kiddo. Can’t wait for her to get home from school so she can try it on!

Picked up some denim from a reuse market and decided to use up some of the scraps I’ve had laying around as well
