The third season starts in August! Who would be up for a late Summer Mad Men-themed swap?

This was made as a Christmas gift for my sister in 2007.


Based on various works by Frida Kahlo. Made of clay, wood, lace, beading, ribbon, artificial birds and flowers, and ceramic tile as the base. Painted with acrylic.

I'm not sure if this belongs in this category or "More Art, Less Craft", but since it is a sculpture mainly made of clay I've put it here.

Here is a necklace I made recently.


I used silver chain, some silver charms, rose quartz beads, other beads, and a white stone.


Action shot - I really love how it is lying flat.

I'm not sure what to do with it since I don't wear silver jewelry, but I'm really happy with how it turned out.

Thanks for looking. :]

This is my first jewelry making excursion in awhile so bear with me! Just an old chain, a few charms and found beads and some gold wire, et voila!

Thanks for looking. :]

It's the thing that keeps me going!

I threw a Marie-Antoinette/18th century party last Summer and figured I'd post pictures here of all of my hard work!

Food!

^that's me!

"After party":







Everybody:




Thanks for looking! It was so fun, but definitely hard work to plan. Started planning in May for an August 1st party.

For those who love anything pertaining to France and Paris and all of the culture, film, literature, music, history, food, etc. that goes with it.

Who would be interested?

Cranberry-apple filling, and I went a little wild with the crust design, then brushed it with warm milk and white sugar before baking.

Ta-da!

A new crafter here! My name is Hannah, I'm 18 from Ontario, Canada. I like to make lots of different things, collages, scrapbooking, illustrations, paintings, jewelry, odds and ends, baking, a bit of sewing, and I want to learn how to knit!

There's not much to say. I have some links in my signature with my flickr and deviantart if you'd like to see my photos and artwork. This seems like a really inspiring place and I hope to get some great ideas and inspiration and be able to share all of my things with you.

Thanks!
