Whimsical little bookmark I found at a homemade gift/craft store yesterday ✨

Crotched this sweet little cow posing with a strawberry for scale!

I have a project runway brother sewing machine and used one of the settings to add this floral stitching to my dress! It's very subtle, and there are definitely a few mistakes but I couldn't be more thrilled about it! Now I'm eyeing the rest of my closet.. and fabric belongings.

Said daughter is 13 and loves anything bright and rainbowy, and she’s learning a lot of excellent kandi patterns from online tutorials. She made me this little octopus, who now lives in my backpack and sits out on my desk when I’m at work, a lovely touch of whimsy for an industrial environment. I’ll occasionally look at it and get this little captivated smile on my face and my coworkers probably think I’m goofy 🤣

(The octopus’s name is Philomena, Phil for short 🐙)

I've painted the side of my door, and 4 of the awning supports. I want to do the inside of the awning next.

If you’ve been influenced by all the snail mail clubs going around, try becoming a volunteer pen pal!! I’ve been doing it for a while and it’s the most fun ever! It’s a nice little creative outlet and can bring some joy to someone who will appreciate it. I even started learning origami so I could include them in letters. You can be a volunteer pen-pal for the elderly, hospital patients, people detained in ICE centers, etc. It’s a really cool way to give something back to your community AND it scratches the itch of sending fun mail!

This prop features:
✨ A bubble machine mounted on top
🌸 Flower petals made from bubble mailers
💡 Fairy lights inside for a magical glow
☂️ A collapsible umbrella base for easy storage and transport

🌸🫧 Meet my newest creation—a giant flower umbrella that blows bubbles!
I built this prop using an umbrella base, a bubble machine mounted on top, flower petals made from bubble mailers, and fairy lights inside so it glows beautifully. Best of all, it still folds up like a regular umbrella for easy storage!

I always thought this sticker residue on my dishwasher kinda looked like a whale. I walked past it today and thought “I should try to get that off it will be so easy, but wait I might miss it.” Then I remembered I have the perfect sticker for this occasion :)

The pattern is the dragon scarf by Feerie Telle 🥰

I turned some of my favorite little toys and trinkets into keychains and I think they turned out really cute! 😊

Added fairy lights and stained glass window clings to my new living room (featuring a few skeletons)! It’s still a work in progress though!
