I've been spending a lot of time rolling paper into bowls, ready to be filled with teeny portions of cereal. I've also made the cereal boxes as well as some waffle boxes. I still need to fill the bowls with cereal, and I want to make a waffle machine as well as some waffles, though… Continue reading Project Roundup

This little shield is something I started making on impulse, just for fun. It'll make some fun photos, either way. I've also made progress on the walls of Sarah's renovated kitchen/living space, here's the exterior: and the interior so far: I want to glue the kitchen benches into the main box alcove, which is why… Continue reading Project Roundup

The Hogwarts bunting is going well, I'm 6 flags per house away from finishing all the flags. Then I just have to crochet them all together in one very, very long string of bunting. Sarah's been knitting a new scarf out of some yarn ends she's had hanging around for a while, and the eventual… Continue reading Project Roundup

I have quite a few projects in progress at the moment, actually. First is a new badge design, which went very quickly from an idea to being made! I'm trying a new stitch with it, too, so we'll see how that goes. I'm confident it'll turn out well. I'm also making a few small furniture… Continue reading Project Roundup

In-between projects, I usually check over my previous makes and perform maintenance or give them updates, as I'm currently doing with this sword I made a long time ago. The blade is getting definition, I'm freshening up the crossbar on the hilt, and I might wrap the hilt in leather, or change its colour. I'll… Continue reading Project Roundup

I've had the idea for Hogwarts house bunting bouncing around in my head since I finished the Three Broomsticks, and not long ago I did the maths to figure out just how many flags I'd have to make. It's 100, 25 for each house. 12 down, 88 to go! I also started on the front… Continue reading Project Roundup
Painting Space
I acquired these two canvases around Christmas time, for a painting I wanted to do for my room. In this painting, I wanted to have galaxies, stars, and several of my favourite spaceships. Both canvases are 20 x 24 inches, and I put them together to double the space I had for the painting. Here,… Continue reading Painting Space
2017 In Review
Whew! What a year! I believe last year I re-capped the year in 12 photos, and I thought I'd do the same this year, so we can see how my skills have developed. Starting with January: February: March: April: May: June: July: August: September: October: November: December: Looking at the pictures I chose, I seemed… Continue reading 2017 In Review

I'm making good progress on the life-size Christmas wreath, all the individual elements are done, they just need to be sewn on. I also put fold-down awnings on all the Diagon Alley windows, to add a 3rd dimension to what was previously a flat facade. (I also made the Three Broomsticks external windows yellow, as… Continue reading Project Roundup

These felt flowers came in a Mollie Makes freebie, and they're meant to go on a wreath. However, I want to make a mandala to go into the plastic ring provided instead, so suggestions for what I could do with them are much appreciated! The red one is a poppy, the pink one is a peony… Continue reading Project Roundup
