I designed my own character and her name is Melody.

Hey everyone, meet Melody. She’s an introvert who loves music and doesn’t talk much. But when she does, she sounds like a philosopher.
She’s the kind of person who notices all the little details that everyone else misses. She loves her hoodies because they’re cozy, comfortable and make her feel safe. She also loves strawberries and carries one with her all the time, right alongside her headphones, just in case she gets hungry.
What do you think about her? Did I do a good job bringing her personality to life? ♡

Made this Bubu Dudu toothbrush holder for a custom order

I’m always really nervous when it comes to making bigger pieces because they usually involve a lot of trial and error. But after a few attempts, I finally managed to bring this one to life.
I honestly love how it turned out, although I still feel like there’s room for improvement. What do you think? 🥹🫶

Should I make more flower themed bag charms?

I think people are really loving lily and orchid flowers right now and honestly, I love making them too. I feel like a sunflower bag charm would be really cute as well. What other flowers do you think would look good as bag charms?

What are worry stones and how do you use them?

Worry stones are small grounding tools, kind of like fidget toys. They’re designed to give your hands something repetitive and soothing to focus on during moments of stress, anxiety or overwhelm.
Anxiety often pulls our attention away from the present moment. Our minds start racing with “what if” thoughts, our breathing becomes shallow and our bodies go into survival mode. Grounding techniques help interrupt that cycle by bringing our attention back to what’s happening right now.
One simple way to do that is through touch.
To use a worry stone, place your thumb on the indent and gently rub it back and forth. As you do that, try to focus on the smooth texture, the shape of the stone and the movement of your thumb.
This works because your brain can only focus on so many things at once. Shifting your attention to a physical sensation can help reduce the intensity of anxious thoughts and bring you back to the present moment.
Worry stones can also be helpful for people who tend to bite their nails, pick at their skin, or pull their hair when they’re stressed. Having something in your hands can redirect that nervous energy into a healthier and more calming habit.
That being said, worry stones aren’t a cure for anxiety, and they’re not a replacement for therapy or professional support. Think of them as a small tool you can keep in your pocket for those moments when you feel overwhelmed and need a gentle reminder to slow down, breathe and reconnect with your senses.
I hope this helps 🫶✨

Which finish looks better? Matte or glossy?

I personally love a matte finish, but glazing seals the piece, makes it more durable and gives it that shiny glossy finish ✨ that a lot of people really like but which one do you like better? Matte or glossy?

Also, can you guess who this is? 👀 If you can, then I guess I did a pretty good job! 🥹

Made a custom strawberry shortcake Keychain for a customer

A customer asked me to make her favourite childhood character, Strawberry Shortcake. I absolutely love how she turned out! 😁 ✨ 🌷
I had so much fun making her because she was a part of my childhood too. I used to love that cartoon! 🥹It feels extra special when I get to recreate something that I have my own childhood memories with, and I’m so glad I got to make her in my own style.
And the best part? The strawberry GLOWS IN THE DARK! ✨🍓 I seriously love making pieces that glow in the dark. They’re just so much fun!
