1  Re: HP Craftalong ~Summer Semester 2013~ *Join at any time!* in Craftalongs by ErinAquaheart on: June 18, 2013 02:45:55 AM
Maman! He is just beautiful!!! Congrats!

Class: July Detention
House:Slytherin
Project Name: Shrinkydink Rectangle Earrings
Project Description: I cut out and sharpie colored a TON of extra leftover shrinkydink chunks a while back and today made it my goal to turn all of them into pretty wearables.  So I cut out these rectangles and made two pairs of these rectangle stacked earrings.


Class: DADA
House: Slytherin
Project Name: Hinkypunk Fireflame Necklace
Project Description: Hinkypunk's will lead you into or out of danger depending on their whim so I made a nod to this very fickle creature by creating a necklace that might get you into trouble or out of it. Inspired by the flickering flames of the will-o-the-wisp, this necklace will flicker in the dance club lights.

Class: Herbology
House: Slytherin
Project Name: Putrefied Troll Eye Cookies (yummy)
Project Description: So I decided that I would experiment with jam cookies. And make something that I would like to enjoy during the halloween season. I made these jam filled cookies with jalapeno jelly with a green candied cherry for the eyeball part. When they were done they reminded me of some horrible creatures eye floating on a cookie.  The jalapeno jelly experiment turned out really well too.  The cookies are slightly savory instead of really sweet. Very different but very good.

2  Share Bear the Care Bear in Trinkets and Jewelry: Completed Projects: General by ErinAquaheart on: June 15, 2013 08:11:04 PM
One of my favorite cartoons growing up was CareBears! I loved that show!!!! So when I had some care bear stampers that had shriveled and crumbled I cut the care bears off the stamper part and turned them into necklace charms. For the longest time Share Bear has been proudly worn on a ball chain without any thought to "upgrade." I recently acquired a purple necklace for repurposing and when I added it to my necklace collection immediately realized how awesome the two would go together.
So....voila!


And a detail of my beads. The shooting star came from a Clair's necklace from LOOOONG ago.

Class: Flying
House: Slytherin
Project Name: Broom Polish Reminder Necklace
Project Description: I have Such a hard time remembering to polish my broom to a shiny gleam! Especially after a really hard quidditch practice...but I do always remember to pamper myself and get all girly afterwards. *blush* So to remind me to always take the time to pamper my broom before myself I have a little charmed friend. What better way to remind me to share the pampering than Share Bear the Care Bear!?!?! The shiny purple, metal, and pearly beads are an excellent reminder as well....and what can be shinier than a shooting star? Anyway. I KNOW it will work for me.  Grin



and a detail of all the shiny!

Challenge: Root for the CANNONS!
House: Slytherin
Project Name: Orange and Black beaded necklace
Project Description: This challenge was really hard for me!!! I started going through my things and could NOT find ANYTHING orange! Apparently it isn't one of my top colors. I FINALLY found some discarded earrings leftover from my Radioactive Teddy Bears. The orange beads from those and some black accent beads that have pretty orange details turned into this.  It's cute, understated, and simple. When I tried it on I immediately thought that it would look great on a elementary teacher....I guess around Halloween I'll be wearing this too my sub jobs.  Smiley
 

P.S. I desperately need a new camera for these pictures. I am getting increasingly frustrated my the inaccurate colors that I get from my stupid camera.

There are SOOO many great projects that I can't even begin to be jealous enough! I love them all!

Challenge: June Detention
House: Slytherin
Project Name: Cool Sweet Toffee Dip
Project Description: I was flipping through my instagram and came across a lovely post with a recipe for Toffee Dip and couldn't resist whipping up my own. It tastes amazing with pretzels and graham crackers. And I've been told apple slices are yummy too.
2 8oz packages of regular cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup toffee bits (I used heath bar toffee bits. Adds a little chocolate.)
1 tsp vanilla (but of course I used more like 2 tbsp....I really love that stuff)
 Just mix all ingredients (minus the toffee bits) with your mixer until creamy. Then stir in your toffee bits.  Then just dip and enjoy.

So yummy!


Class: Arithmancy
House: Slytherin
Project Name: Protection Lion
Project Description: I got this garden statue lion last semester for my spirit animal and never got started but when I saw the prompt for arithmancy I new what my lion was meant to do. One: this project took a lot of time and care so I know that it definitely falls under complicated. Two: Curse-breakers often find themselves working with cursed or charmed objects that are meant to protect and defend the entrances to dangerous places.  I feel that my crafting artistry often times makes my home a dangerous place to be (for other people that is.) So I have created my lion to be something a curse-breaker would have to face before entering my sanctuary of creativity. Very similar to having to face a sphinx or Dumbledore's ghost.  If you can't take the spell then GET OFF MY PORCH!  Grin Cheesy Grin Cheesy Grin lol

right after I got started...forgot a before pic!

and front, side, and back views of finished lion.

6  Let me see the Peacock!!!! in Trinkets and Jewelry: Completed Projects: General by ErinAquaheart on: June 09, 2013 04:41:01 PM
I love peacocks so I couldn't resist making this necklace when the idea hit me. Shrinkydink really can do amazing things!

And now for a class.

Class: Care of Magical Creatures
House: Slytherin
Project Name: Peacock Necklace with individual feathered tail
Project Description: This is all shrinkydink and prismacolor pencils. It took FOREVER! and there are 21 feathers in the tail pieces. I love how it turned out though...thinking that I may make other ones that are barrettes and pins.

I really need to work on my picture taking skills. All my pictures do NOT do my crafts justice. Anyway...I was a busy little Slytherin yesterday and made some awesomeness.

Class: Study of Ancient Runes
House: Slytherin
Project Name: A Birthday Gift for MommaAquaheart
Project Description: MommaAquaheart's bday is just around the corner so I thought that I would make her something that she would love to wear. I took a necklace that I have hated for myself for a LONG while and snipped it apart and then reinvented it with some pretty metal accent beads that I've had in my stash for a while. (and though the pic is blurry...it really is very nice looking now)



And then I had some leftover beads and decided...Hey! I should make some Slytherin Pride up in here! So...

Class: House Pride
House: Slytherin
Project Name: Slytherin Pride Bracelet
Project Description: Leftover beads from my SOAR became the perfect way for me to display my massive house pride. Now even at the most fancy Hogwarts events I can show my Slytherin Pride with style!

10  Blue and Purple Peacock inspired dangle earrings in Trinkets and Jewelry: Completed Projects: General by ErinAquaheart on: June 08, 2013 12:27:43 PM
I used shrinkydink and sharpie to make these. I love the gradient of the blue, teal, and purple that happened when it all got put together. All the pieces are irregular. I really is one of a kind.
