It's a double strand bracelet made with hematite and tiger's eye. After I tied it off I realized that I did stagger the beads around the 13mm focal tiger's eye. I kept both hematite on one side and both tiger's eye on one side.

Does it look okay like that or does it look unbalanced? Would you tear it apart and switch those beads? Thank you in advance.

(The ADHD gets me a lot. I tear apart a lot of jewelry because I didn't pay attention before I tied, or crimped. I swear j check and double check and i won't see any issues. The minute I have gotten to the point of no return- I see an issue lmao. It's frustrating 🤣

I have done some pretty large scale prop/decoration builds in the past and have a general idea, but would love to bounce my plans off some other people.

I want to build the sandworm from Beetlejuice large enough to be in my front yard for Halloween. I’m thinking the head section will be maybe 5’ tall as a minimum (would love to feel confident building taller but unsure), for scale.

I’m sure I will be somewhere in the range of chicken wire/paper mache/air dry clay/joint compound, but for something so large I am also kicking around doing something more cardboard based?

Please spam me with any and all ideas you may have.

Are these frames even pretty?!
Comprised of broken plates, I’ve been having fun with it but sometimes feel like I’m just gluing trash to a frame

Assembled this snowflake ornament using glass beads, butterfly accents, and metal spacers. I’m really enjoying experimenting with different color combinations!
