Sharpie66 November 26, 2019 Share November 26, 2019 (edited) Thanks! I had a whole bunch of almost-done-but-not-quite xstitch pieces that I concentrated on finishing several years ago, so all I have now are the kits for small projects that can be done in days, one Xmas piece I really want to do that will take probably a month that I am holding off on doing until I need a short break from this megaproject, probably next spring, and then several more megaprojects that I bought from Scarlet Quince. None of those are as big as this one, but they are all probably 12- to 18-month projects. I love the big projects just for the huge set of accomplishment when it’s done. My first was a 186,000-stitch antique world map I made for my sister and BIL, which took about 20 months to finish. That one was very demanding, since messing up the longitude/latitude lines would have been immediately obvious. It had a lot of variations on white/ecru that drove me up the wall!

I love huge cross stitch projects, too, but have for some reason never actually done one. I've started one but have been so busy lately that I haven't worked on it much. Crocheting, for some reason, relaxed me and I've managed to make a few things that I've never tried before. I made my first crochet hat last week and just tonight made my first crochet hair scrunchies.

Guest July 10, 2020 Share July 10, 2020 Question for the crafty. Is there a way to fill a small glazed ceramic tray with a clear resin/epoxy, etc.? Its also got a small ceramic sculpture in the center of it. Goal is to protect the sculpture in it, still be able to see it, but be able to use it as a tray. I'm seeing too much stuff about respirators, propane torches, and I'm not entirely sure it will stick to glazed ceramic or be clear when the deed is done.. I'm on this up cycle kick. If the definition of upcycle was buy something new, do craft stuff to it, and spend 5 times what would cost if you just bought a soap dish at the store.

TattleTeeny March 11, 2021 Share March 11, 2021 (edited) This thread looks semi-dead, so I will post this in Chit Chat as well, but here we go: Does anyone know what is the safest sealer/topcoat to use on a pet food tray? The back story: The plastic tray that our cats' food bowls are kept on is not aesthetically pleasing. Not that it needs to be, of course, but, all things being otherwise equal, I prefer aesthetically pleasing to not aesthetically pleasing--especially if it's something that's always visible and even if its' just a basic, utilitarian thing. I have been on the hunt for a vintage midcentury kitschy rectangular serving tray ('50s atomic or tiki or crazy-ass '60s or '70s patterns), but no real luck. So, I decided I'd decoupage the plain one (or make one from a baking sheet). I figured Mod Podge would work, and there is even a dishwasher safe one, but now I am second-guessing myself. The cats don't eat food right off the tray, generally, but, you know...cats -- I can't guarantee that they won't ever eat something right off the tray.

While reading the FAQs for the dishwasher-safe Mod Podge, I saw that it recommended decorating the underside of clear plates as opposed to the surface. The tricky part for me was finding an acrylic tray that had a very short border; most of them were serving trays with handles so they were about 2 inches in height.

TattleTeeny October 8, 2021 Share October 8, 2021 (edited) Fellow crafty DIYers, I am about to attempt to reline a vintage 1960s coat, ugh. This is not something I know how to do, even though I’m an OK sew-er and have made some simple dresses, among various other things. But I decided to do something lazy — and probably crazy — before trying this completely from scratch. I bought an inexpensive satin robe that I turned inside out and put inside the coat. This Frankensteined thing is now on the mannequin lady ready for me to figure out where to begin! If it works, I have two more coats to do! ETA: This is tricky. But tricky in a way that I don’t think would be any less so than making the lining myself—the trickiness seems to be figuring out the best way to begin attaching it.

If I had room, that would probably be my next obsession. I could build a few structures for the garden, like a potting table and maybe a trellis. It's not crafty, but gardening will keep you moving especially if you start pruning trees and need to both cut branches down and then break them up. But even just with planting and deadheading and weeding, there's always something to do. Not so much over winter but from about March to late November depending on where you live. 1 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/32088-craft-corner-if-youre-crafty-and-you-know-it-make-it/page/2/#findComment-7065235

Outside of the kits I made a Thanksgiving turkey, some holiday lights, a hot chocolate mug, mini hockey jersey holiday tree ornaments, the USS Enterprise, and a few other things. I'm going to start experimenting with the big fluffy yarn and this winter I'm going to attempt a throw blanket.

Anela June 23, 2022 Share June 23, 2022 I used to crochet. Another thing I abandoned, when my life imploded. I started out knitting, but it would irritate me after a while. I loved it when I managed to actually finish something, but when I was stressed, it never relaxed me, and my tension could be too tight or too loose. I see people talking about how much knitting makes them feel better, and I can't relate. But crocheting squares for an afghan, that worked for me for a while. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/32088-craft-corner-if-youre-crafty-and-you-know-it-make-it/page/2/#findComment-7519379
EtheltoTillie September 27, 2022 Share September 27, 2022 (edited) Time to bump up the craft thread. I'm always a sucker for the Mary Maxim Christmas catalog. I just received my my order: A kit to crochet two reindeer and a Santa Claus jigsaw puzzle (from White Mountain).

(I'm stitching a design onto a sweater.) I'm slowly finishing an embroidery project. It's a wedding gift with different items shown that are important to the couple, including their two dogs. I'm taking it very slow, as I've been learning a lot as a go, and I had to draft my own pattern. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/32088-craft-corner-if-youre-crafty-and-you-know-it-make-it/page/2/#findComment-7839450
merylinkid January 23, 2023 Share January 23, 2023 So glad I discovered this forum. I quilt. As many of you know, I do family law in the day job. Quilting is how I relax. The sewing can be almost zen. Plus when you are done you have a pretty project that STAYS done. Unlike a custody case where you may be back EVERY SINGLE YEAR arguing about something. Here's one project I finished several years ago but it remains my favorite. 6 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/32088-craft-corner-if-youre-crafty-and-you-know-it-make-it/page/2/#findComment-7839481
