I took a 5-year-old T-shirt and gave it a new life with some embroidery 🧵

I added a small cat design using simple embroidery techniques to turn something old into something I’d actually wear again 🐱

I didn't have a good set of coasters, so l thought why not make one. I've always seen lily pad coasters and plates on Pinterest, but I always found them to be incomplete without a lily and a pond.

I had so much fun making these from air dry clay. And they are so simple to make, especially the coasters. 💫

My bag straps needed some personality, so I crocheted these adorable dangly frogs in fab outfits. 🐸💚

Followed a crochet tutorial by .studi0

Tried pixel art for the first time!
I sketched a grid, painted each square, cut them out, and made this tiny giraffe. 🦒

It took way longer than I expected, but the final moment was SO worth it.

Used a picture reference from Pinterest.

I’m rediscovering two things I loved as a child - Pokémon and watercolours. I painted this cute little Cyndaquil as an evening project. I love how it turned out. 🔥

Slowly trying to get back to watercolors.

I had an old shirt with a tear that I didn’t want to throw away.

Instead of hiding the damage, I tried repairing it using sashiko embroidery. What started as a simple fix turned into something that looks more like a tattoo than a repair.

I took the buttons off this shirt and added a tiny floral embroidery detail 🌸🧵

It’s a simple, quick embroidery idea that completely changes how the shirt looks. It’s perfect for your spring - summer wardrobe.

If you enjoy DIY fashion, embroidery, and upcycling clothes, this is something you can try yourself.

Made the cutest little lady bug. 🐞✨

I’m experiment with more materials and trying out new techniques.

My specs were always just lying around and I always wanted a place for it. I came across this idea on Pinterest and immediately knew that I had to try it. I’ve been learning crochet and trying to get the hang of it more. This was a very fun video to make as well. 🧸🐻✨

Made the prettiest spring tote bag. 🌸🌼

I started by painting the sky and field. Then embroidered a flowering tree and tiny sheep frolicking in the grass. 🐑🌳🌸

I get very excited for spring, it's my favourite time of the year. I especially love all the spring flowers, so this was a lot of fun to make. 🌸🌼✨

Would you try something like this?
