The Introverted Crafter

I have been working on jewellery this week. First, a set of bicone earrings.  A bicone black and red beaded bracelet.  Snowman earrings.i love the minimalist look.  Ive also been working on the stitch. 16.5% done! Until next time Ems

Made a get well card on request this week. Why it so much harder making a card for guys?! Anyway, saw something online that gave me inspiration.  I would have personally gone for a funnier theme, but I was outvoted.  Here's the update on the stitch. 15% done.  Until next time Ems

I tried something new this week. First time so not perfect, but quite good. I poured clear resin into moulds and when they were dry, glued a scene on the back with sparkly glue. I then painted resin onto part of the mould to make it clear, painted the other bits black and added wax. Finally, I added magnets on the back.  Where it didn't quite work was the extra coat on the resin, which was a little lumpy in places. Something to work on.  I also made a bracelet.  Ive also been working on the stitch. Finished this colour, so onto another now.  Until next time Ems

Got a few things to put on the blog this week, courtesy of being off work and not well enough to go and do anything. Let's get to it! You might notice i did a couple of other colours on the stitch. I got bored of the same colour so took a break from it for a day. A beaded necklace, using various beads including peanut beads.  A birthday card, using spellbinders dies from the 2024 advent calendar and some paper from my stash.  Same thing, with different dies obviously. I wish I'd found spellbinders earlier. I've got the 2025 calendar to look forward to for Christmas as well.  A card for a man, using papers from my stash and some stamps.  Until next time Ems

Strange title i know, but apt to me. Im off sick at the moment with a nice middle ear infection and burst eardrum. At least i made things earlier this week. Here is the stitch update.  I made a couple of snowglobes using resin houses and various tim holtz ephemera.  A pair of earrings, using sead beads, larger pearls and bicone beads. I found the tutorial on facebook. A bracelet. Im still not getting the stringing tight enough, but its getting better. Until next time Ems

I saw something on the tim holtz Addicts page on facebook, and I knew i had to try it. I have different sized paper dolls, so I mixed small bodies with big heads to make a card.  I get vibes from monty python and from the Canadians in south park for some reason.  I've also been working on the stitch. Here's the latest update. I'm definitely gonna run out of a few colours though, so im hoping I have spare in my stash. Until next time Ems
