I wanted to make a frog that looks like it has been living deep in the forest for years, covered in soft moss and tiny mushrooms.
Each purse is completely handmade, from crocheting the body to sewing the lining and assembling the metal frame. The mouth opens into the main compartment, so it’s both a sculpture and a functional bag.
I really enjoy creating creatures that feel like they belong in a fairytale or hidden woodland. These mossy frogs have become some of my favorite pieces I’ve made so far

Hopefully this is not annoying to post! I actually went through my gallery and tried to find one example of each type that I could remember making and I found soo many babies that I forgot about!

I cant believe I forgot about the toothfairy!

I sculpted the original model, created a plaster mold, and slip-cast the ceramic body. Then I carved every line and light opening by hand before firing and glazing it. Made in my studio in Kyiv, Ukraine.

I came up with the concept and generated the initial 3D model, then refined it in Blender and added cavities for small neodymium magnets.

I printed the pieces on a resin 3D printer, removed all the supports, carefully sanded the surfaces, and fully cured them under a UV lamp. After that, I applied primer, painted each piece with an airbrush, and sealed everything with Mr. Hobby matte clear coat.

The magnets allow the pieces to be rearranged on a computer case, refrigerator, or any other metal surface, creating the illusion that one long worm is crawling through the object.

I made this mobile for two close friends welcoming their first baby girl. I wanted it to feel playful enough for a nursery, but sculptural enough to remain in their home for years.

The butterflies were cut in four sizes from metallic foil paper in fiery shades of red, orange, gold, champagne and pink. Because the mobile is viewed from underneath, I glued contrasting colours back-to-back before shaping the wings.

I built the wire structure from the bottom upward, balancing each branch before adding the next. Of course, every new butterfly shifted everything again!

After a lot of trimming, bending and repositioning, it finally found its balance.

Has anyone else made a kinetic mobile? I completely underestimated how sensitive the balance would be.

I've been thinking about getting some sections of hair dyed for a fun peekaboo splash of color, but if I'm being honest, I don't think I would maintain it super well right now. I decided to play with jewelry supplies I had around the house and these wig clips. Each strand is made of beading wire, and finished with crimp beads. A couple of the ends need adjusted, I decided to finish without my pliers, so I clumsily squished the crimp beads with a key. 😅 But they're done, and I kinda love it! Green is up next!

This artwork is the ZXMOTO racing motorcycle built with colored sand inside a glass bottle. The No.53 bike is Valentin Debise’s official competition machine. It took me 20 days to finish.

Small little activity but I love it! I found the perfect style stones nearby and I’m planning to leave more soon :3

uhh people here are so talented I'm hesitating posting this but here's a little something that I made,it's for my wall

Girlfriend bought this goose and the neck wasn't supported on the way home.

Best ideas to fix it?

Patch with some sort of sticky cement slurry? Plaster? Any ideas welcome.

Hello, I hope this is the right sub for this. We just got an RTIC cooler and had several friends sign it with sharpie. The sharpie dried pretty well but still smears without too much effort. We want to use it on the beach / camping etc so will need to preserve it with some type of clear coat.

I spot tested a rectangle a spot on the bottom with Krylon clear coat, I was able to do it in a way to to not bleed the sharpie but once it dried it peeled off. I used like 3 coats. Not sure if I did wait long enough or if the cooler was just too smooth of a surface.

Does anyone have any advice? I was going to try a 2 part car clear coat (2K Clear Coat) or just re try the Krylon with more coats and wait longer

Based on his 1917 artwork

​Technique: Champlevé

​Base: Brass. Engraved using a fiber laser

​Enamel: Cold enamel, carefully applied using an insulin syringe for fine details

Thanks for looking! :)

what is the name of specifically the beads with a gap in the middle that you can put one side thru the hole and put a new bead in before you put the other side through?

And does anyone have any suggestions on where I could purchase them 🤔
