Got the idea from Pinterest and put my own little spin on it.

It’s taken a few months, but as of last week I finally finished this monster of a project.

It’s a combination of hand and machine sewn, though mostly done painstakingly by hand. It’s made primarily out of a heavy wool blanket, but features duck linings in the pockets and in the faux fur hood attachment. The faux fur trim around the hood is removable if desired. The pockets feature drawstring toggle closures with buffalo horn buttons.

It was a blast to make, but man am I glad it’s finished. I worked with a Missouri River pattern for the base, but made a lot of customizations and winged a few ideas for it along the way.

Useing different acorns some cooper wier and glue. This little fella can predict the weather some what as the humidity causes the pedals to close or open. Anyway it was fun to build

I’m working my butt off to prepare for opening a storefront and I made these beauties today. I want to keep them!

Hello everyone! Thanks for letting me join!

I need some advice for some birthday gift ideas for my wife. She loves to craft in her spare time. She likes to canvas paint lately, but has always loved decorating wine/liquor bottles. Works a lot with clay! She's into natural landscape/naturistic vibes in most of her work. She is also wanting to get into some small resin projects! And of course, loves coloring books as well.

I'm looking for any ideas on some of y'all's favorite craft ideas, projects, books or even tools that help make your life easier when working on certain crafts!

Any advice is much appreciated:) TIA!

SO PROUD of my farmyard barn! Gifted this to my friend and her boyf as a baby shower gift.

My daughter is getting married in October, and I'm hosting a rehearsal-adjacent brunch at our home. I'd love to add some handmade, personal touches to make it feel extra special for her.

For all you talented crafters, what are some of your favorite DIY ideas? Decorations, centerpieces, signs, favors...I'm open to anything that's beautiful and doable. I'd love to hear what you've made for weddings or other special family gatherings!

Work in progress… but I feel proud of my background so far! Trying to achieve a “street art” style. Really interested in mixed media, and perhaps even plaster to blend and take this to the next level. Recommendations are welcome! I’m a newb to this kind of stuff, but having a ton of fun in the process 🤓

Bench and chair I took apart. I don’t wanna toss it if I can make something out of it. I’m just not sure what any ideas? :p

I found this cute little guy on YouTube,,, ain't it just adorable 🧶🤟

These are all 6 of my new jelly’s! Which ones your fave so far:

- Croissant 🥐
- peanut 🥜
- Leaf 🍁
- Egg 🍳
- teabag bag 🫖 (in progress of course)

How much should I charge someone for making something for them? I make a lot of stuff for family and I always feel bad giving them a price even when they offer to pay me. But at the same time it takes me a lot of time and material costs. I had a family member ask me to make her 3 shirts with a front pocket design, both sleeves, and the back done. She supplied the vinyl and the design was simple but in total it probably took me 4-5 hours to design, cut, weed, and iron everything. If I’m going off even just $10 an hour that’s $50 is that too much to ask for? Too little? Help!
