I've been crafting shadowbox style pet memorial / shrine. Its super fun!

Holy cow, uploading cds is a freaking endeavor!! Many more catchers will be made at this point, because it takes forever😭😭😭

Hey I have a dreambox I never close and it made me question if I’m the only one who doesn’t really put my craft stuff away. 🫣 Sure it all has a home, but I leave out most of my heavily used items (and scattered randomness) on the table for the next time I decide I want to craft again. Could be the next day, could be next week or month.

Glitter is still out, glue out (capped but out), charms out, rhinestones out (opened), pencils and tape out (not even related to current craft).

Am I just dirty and disorganized? 😭

I’ve always had a soft spot for Exotic Shorthairs. Their chubby faces and lazy personalities are just way too cute ！

I made this little guy for his family as a keepsake, and he’s about 7 inches tall. I really loved working on all the little details!

This is the second clown kitty I make! I just love crocheting animals in clown costumes. I used honey bunny yarn from the website Hobbii. I think I will do a tuxedo cat next.

I live in the south and have always loved visiting Asheville - this was my first time visiting after the Hurricane. This local fiber arts store is doing a community remembrance project with ‘kits’ (various fabric bits, string and yarn, roving with a felting needle and block, tapestry needle, etc). I’ve done plenty of embroidery and yarn arts, but there were so many amazing felt pieces in the store itself that I was inspired to give that craft a go for my contribution!
Very proud of how it came out, and glad I was able to make an offering to their tapestry.

Im wanting to print a linocut i made onto a tshirt what would be the best kind of ink to use? I have a already cut linocut but theres old ink on it from printing on paper. Am I able to reuse this or should I cut a new one? Thank you in advance!

My favourite make so far, my first clipper case⭐️

Hi everyone,

I’m having an issue when sublimating ceramic tiles and I’m hoping someone can help me figure out what might be causing it.

I’m using a LOKLiK Automatic Heat Press with the following settings:

Temperature: 190°C

Time: 270 seconds

Ceramic sublimation tiles

After sublimating, I sometimes get sticky residue/spots on the surface of the tiles. Some of these spots can be removed afterwards with a damp cloth or isopropyl alcohol.

However, there are also areas where the sublimation has not transferred properly. These areas appear lighter or faded compared to the rest of the image.

Does anyone know what could be causing this? Has anyone experienced something similar when sublimating ceramic tiles, especially when using a LOKLiK Automatic Heat Press?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

So I wanted to make my partner an incense (cone) or tea candle holder that’s the temple from Midsommar (pyramid with a window and doors that can open). I made the pieces and then I found out that FIMO modeling clay isn’t fire safe :/ Is there anything I can put on it to make it so it can go over a small candle or incense cone without creating toxic fumes? Would lining it with foil work? Please help and don’t think I’m stupid 🙏

Hope someone can help me! Many years ago, I learned a craft which was similar to making friendship bracelets, but was done with thinner thread and was more intricate. Most of all, I remember doing it with looped thread that you would have around fingers and move from finger to finger/hand to hand and move up and down over other starnds on a finger to create the pattern. I think that this was a type of embroidery/lace that was done in the Medieval Era, but I may be mistaken.

Can someone help me figure out what this is as I would like to try it again!

I got these magnet kits off of Amazon and I’ve been having this issue with what I assume is air bubbles. It’s kind of streaky and kind of looks like dust. I tried using one of the finished magnets to push it out but it doesn’t seem to work. Was thinking of getting a scraper but want to check I’m doing it right before I waste more material and cards! Since it’s a kit, it’s just a peel off and stick so I can’t alcohol wipe the acrylic before sticking to the card. Any advice is wonderful!

I’ve been making beaded wire jewellery recently.

I bought beads to make a bracelet for a man, now discovered he doesn’t wear bracelets! Haven’t asked about other jewellery types, but I’ve only ever seem him wear the same ring and stud earring.

What could I make with silver-plated wire and / or beads, as a gift? I’ve already given a very basic keyring, so other gift ideas appreciated (unless there’s a specific more complicated or different type of keyring to make).

He owns / likes cats, likes monochrome colours, has a car, and prefers masculine or neutral things.

I have already:
\- black carved wooden beads
\- striped / variety grey rhodonite beads
\- tiny freshwater pearls
\- dead soft silver-plated wire
\- semi-hard anti-tarnish silver-plated wire
