Happy Halloween~! As a special treat, I got some costumed boys from @kunogi.bsky.social 🩵💛 I wanted Western style costumes this time and had this adorable idea. One kiss from the prince and the frog also transforms into a prince~🤭💞 #ZhuiLing #Halloween #mdzs #princeandthefrog

If you think some sort of handmade item is too expensive, learn how to make it yourself. Then you'll either know the worth of what that artist is charging, or you'll be able to make your own stuff. And this is coming from someone who has, on multiple occasions, learned how to do it myself.

My crochet qilin is finally finished! He's a little uneven and wildly imperfect, but I made him by hand almost entirely with my own pattern, and I love him dearly all the same~ 💕 #crochet #qilin #handmade #laboroflove

My progress so far trying to create my own crochet creature and write a pattern while I'm making it~ I've just got the head and the feet so far; the body is proving tricky and harder to pattern 😅 But my plan is to finish that today. Hopefully... #crochet

Crochet creature head, that looks like a blue deer with light blue tipped antlers that fade to white closer to the head. It has grey sewed on eyes with 3 white dots of varying sizes in a curve underneath.

Here's the thing, I'm a bit of a "recipe pirate" when crafting. Once I learn the basics and understand the instructions for how things are supposed to be made, I can't resist adding my own twist onto things, regardless of whether I know how to do them or not 😅

Made a little cockatiel Hunter based off @foxyjoy.bsky.social's art~ 💛 He's just a little guy 🤏 I may have cursed a lot during the detailing, but he really turned out so nice considering he's only the 3rd crochet birdie I've made ✌️😅 #crochet #bird #TOH #Hunter #cockatiel

Well, after one watch through and minimal cursing, I learned how to make wolves~ 🐺 In my typical fashion, I altered the pattern a little to better suit my vision of a wolf (and because I couldn't manage one of the steps, tbh), but I'm very happy with the result 💖 #origami #wolf #qjj

Cursing and grumbling while I look up instructions for an origami wolf after reading QJJ V8 this morning. Mentioning folded paper wolves just means I have to figure out how to make them now, but most of the instructions push the limits of video length I'm willing to watch. 😩😮‍💨
