I’m enjoying making #resin leaf pendants for #handmadegifts.

Resin must be handled with care. The pink device was advertised for nail art, but it’s really useful because it pulls the fumes downward, adding one element of safety. It’s very important to have ventilation and wear protective masks.

Round abalone beads! Crushed abalone shell in resin. Handmade, limited quantities.

I’m making paper flower packs now, they’ll be listed in the shop soon. These are 2-sided flower pieces that can be layered as you like to create a colorful garden scene for cards, junk journals, and other paper crafts. Some of the flowers use my paper bead rollers to create beautiful 3D flowers.

I make clip-on weights for round #knitting machines to reduce dropped stitches. I almost tossed my #Sentro until I realized the fabric needs weight to counter friction and static that make the yarn stick to itself and push the yarn up off the pegs then drops the stitch.

Freestyled #crochet inspiration: tropical pitcher plant. I crocheted several long leaves and wrapped them around reach other, folding them down at various angles. I attached the pitchers to floral wire woven through the leaves so they can be arranged as desired.

Wee Casting on for the 5th time because I keep changing my mind about the hem 🙃 #handknit sweaters are my favorite thing to make because they’re the only thing I’ll actually use, but black yarn is a special kind of frustration 🙇🏽‍♀️

I don’t think BànBàn wants to part with some of these clothes

Quick experiment encasing #paperbeads in #resin using a resin bead mold. It’s a tedious process to get full coverage, and some of the colors muddied so I know I need to be careful about what is used to decorate the paper.

Look I am making thing! I’m enjoying #needlefelting pictures right now. I find it easy, quick, and engaging yet relaxing. 10/10 recommend the craft, -200/10 on the experience of catching my finger with one of the barbed needles! 😩
