I didn't care much for the blocky IKEA table we had so I made one with similar dimensions inspired by Alexandre Chappel's design.

Made these for my wife :) She drew the board shape and asked me to make it look like a circuit board. Everything on there is actually functional because I couldn’t bring myself to put down random components.

Yes he's lumpy, yes his paws are mismatched, but it's my very first completed amigurumi and I'm proud of my little boy :)

Chiptunes, yo! The Game Boy can only play four sounds at the same time, so it took some trickery to cram the song into that sound chip.

Here's the original

While I was building this book nook kit, I realised that it would look super boring if it remained unpainted. I asked my brother's girlfriend if she could paint it. After nearly a year this is the result!

Basically title.

I have two left hands, but sometimes I stumbled upon a nice creation from a small artisan on the Internet, and would like to share. Is it allowed?

LED Pendant (lemmy.world)

Sometime during the pandemic I bought a basic woodcarving kit on a whim, tried to follow along with Doug Linker's beginner wizard tutorial, but got discouraged and put everything into the closet when my wizard turned out lousy.

Today was such a pretty day that I figured I should try again. Wizard #2 turned out much better.

Behold the socks that created my obsession! These were actually the third pair I knitted but the first ones that made me understand why knitted socks are so great.

The pattern is the classic Hermione's Everyday Socks, and the yarn is a special blend of all kinds of things including silk and bamboo, bought as a souvenir from a shop called Yarnia in Portland during a big US road trip we took in 2015. You can sort of see the different strands in it in this pic here.

These are my lucky socks. I wore them to job interviews, I wore them the day I got accepted into uni, and I wore them for confidence whenever I was doing something scary.

Alas, after years of heavy use, one of them has a hole in the ball of the foot and I expect the other one won't be far behind.

So given that for once I've managed not to overburden myself with Christmas crafting this year, I think my project for the holidays is going to be to learn how to fix these. At least they'll be usable for wearing around the house, and given they're 8 years old that's pretty good going really!

(Please excuse the wildly different colours from one image to the next, this was a long time ago and I did not know how to camera)

Failed diorama (lemmy.world)
submitted 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 
 

They can’t all be winners, so I thought I’d show off the failed island diorama I was working on.

I tried putting some blue ink into into pour resin to tint it and due to bad technique ended up with a lot of cloudy swirling. Might look good otherwise but not the look I was going for. There were also some resin curing issues between layers.

This diorama is trashed but I thought I could show it to the world.
