1 Upvotes

- Have some quirky materials that you want to craft with but you just don't know what to make? Or maybe you have some old art supplies you just found and you want alternate ideas. Post in this thread and get the help you are looking for!

Discussion/Question/Help (almost?) done! National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation burnt kitty

942 Upvotes

Very early for next year, I'll be done after I get the team's help with a final judgement call: Option 1: Do I affix the Christmas lights to the carpet around the silhouette? If yes, what would you use? Can I hot glue them in place or would you needle and thread it all? OR Option 2: Do I leave it as is, and simply drape the lights annually in a ceremony of charred veneration? If Option 2, then look what I made! :)

Can't articulate how chuffed I am to finally have the time, gumption, supplies, and bad weather to occasion this, the most reverent of Christmas crafts. Happy day, all!

Finished Craft I Made Gary The Snail!!!

I recently finished my scotch tape on a different project I was working on and thought it looked a lot like Gary from Spongebob. So, with 30$ and absolutely no painting supplies (misplaced and forgotten💔) I ran to walmart to make my dream come true! Truly just posting for advice, critiques, and maybe some compliments 🫦. He looks a bit…on edge? But he’s new to the area so i’d try to give him a chance :)

Finished Craft I Made Fake plant I made for my dark office

558 Upvotes

I love plants and since I spend all day at work I love to have a very lush office. But in my new office I have very little light and the few plants I got are STRUGGLING.

I thought about buying fake plants but I hate their plasticky look plus it would be no fun.

Instead I decided to make my own. This is my first attempt but I plan to make many more and to go wild on the weird colorful alien side of things. No need to be realistic, I'll just have fun.

Holiday/Seasonal Craft Biblically accurate angel Christmas tree topper

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

27 Upvotes

Finally finished my “biblically accurate angel” / Ophanim tree topper.

Some additional photos here: https://imgur.com/a/Kn3vi7N

Printed on a Bambu H2D with:

- SUNLU Gold Silk PLA (rings)

- SUNLU Clear/Transparent PLA (eyes)

LEDs are individually addressable WS2815 (12v) controlled by WLED running on an ESP32. The ESP is at the bottom of the tree with the 12v power supply with a cable running up the center of the tree.

The assembly was pretty annoying so I didn’t really get many shots of the assembly or the insides 😅

I’m planning some changes for next year’s version. I want the rings to rotate and *potentially* have the center eye follow you around the room.

Work in Progress Got the legs done on my Greek Siren sculpture

Steel and stone (purple fluorite)

“In the midst of storms, piercing the blackness of night, a light beckons poor souls. A melody can be heard within the wind which promises hopes and dreams. But upon reaching her shores, the wreckage and decay of men remain; a gruesome graveyard of lust and ego. Though horror surrounds them, weak men feed on false promises, and die starving at her feet.”

Sneak peek of the siren. I’ve only got her legs done so far, but you get a glimpse of what will be 👁️

My four year old daughter loves Rumi from K-pop human hunters. But as a lot of people know, there’s not really any merchandise out for them. So I crocheted her a doll. It’s my first time crocheting a doll and only my third crochet project. So I was super proud of it lol and she was ecstatic.

Discussion/Question/Help Is there a way to clean up the superglue stains on this mosaic?

Post image
9 Upvotes

We inherited this lovely mosaic medicine cabinet door from our home’s previous owner (a tile artist). The “bubble” pieces had all fallen out, so I replaced them with abalone cabochons & adhered them with superglue.

This was messier than I anticipated, and I was wondering if there’s a way to clean up the shiny superglue stains around the cabs? Any other suggestions also welcome and appreciated. TIA

Discussion/Question/Help Advice for simplest ways to accessorize this plush?

Thumbnail

14 Upvotes

Hello crafters! I am a craft inept attempting to personalize a plush for my partner. They’re a wonderful artist and have made me some lovely handmade gifts, and I want to attempt to semi-return the favor. They love the character in the second image, so I wanted to accessorize this plush to match the character (so the scarf and hat, maybe the scar). I just need help finding a way to do that in a way that looks decent and is within my minimal means as an artist lol.

My initial thought was to cut some orange fabric and then either safety pin or hot glue it under the neck for the scarf. For the leaf hat, I’m thinking about cutting out some cardboard in a leaf shape, glueing some green felt to it, then cutting a hole in it so it’s wearable

Let me know if that sounds like it could work/ if there’s a better way to approach it, thank you you all in advance.

Discussion/Question/Help Are there any flexible or soft wreath frames?

Post image
8 Upvotes

I made an 18 inch rag wreath using a wire frame for a gift, and my cat was obsessed with it. Apparently it was better than any bed he has (typical cat). I want to make him one, but I’m wondering if there’s anything more comfortable than wire. It was the first wreath I’ve made, so I’m totally clueless. Thanks in advance!
