Hello! I hand make these 3D Wire Galaxy fidgets. They were once popular back in the 1900’s, and were mostly enjoyed as a fun trinket, or hair piece. Enjoy this fun video of me making one from scratch! :)

Sometimes the fun of miniature making is capturing something— in this case, the feeling I had watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer on a bulky tv in my bedroom as a teenager and finding her room to be a comforting place ❤️🪦 Wood box with an interior of cardstock, chipboard, fabric, wire, paint and scrap material, 7”x7”

I know I’ve mostly been posting about my dress, but B’s waistcoat has also been an important work in progress! I finally pinned all the painted embroidery today and started sewing on the pocket flowers. I think it’s going to be absolutely perfect. 🌺🌿♥️💍

And that’s why I craft on company time

I did a faux rebind of Dune as a birthday gift for a friend of mine. Thankfully, his girlfriend sent me pictures of his own Dune Edition (in German) and its measurements. That way he can use this book sleeve for the German edition too. He’s been complaining about that design for quite a while, basically every time we enter a book store.
I also hand-stitched this little desert design into the book cloth, because I don’t own a cricut lol
And here is how it works:
Here’s the tutorial by bindrebindery on ig
And here's the tutorial for all the tiktok kids
She's been a huge help throughout my adventures in rebinding books, and straight up just deserves more recognition.

Cyber goth dress + my favourite way to make patches
I thrifted this dress a couple of weeks ago for £1. I believe it started life as some sort of costume, possibly a sexy firefighter, but the fabric is really good quality cotton, and I thought it had some cybergoth potential with the yellow and reflective bits. I also really like the metal fastenings.
Tumblr media
I already had a high-viz coat in my wardrobe from when I used to go bicycling more often, so I was able to steal more reflective bits from that. Not yet sure what I'll do with them, probably cut interesting shapes and glue or sew them on. Photos with and without flash.
Tumblr media
And then yesterday I got a half meter of cotton fabric for £1 which is an almost exact colour match, so I can make some stencilled patches.
I already had fabric paint at home, so this entire outfit has only cost me £2! Cybergoth clothing is usually super expensive.
Tumblr media
There are lots of tutorials for making stencilled patches on YouTube, (@rattusrattus3 has some excellent ones) but I lack patience and don't like cutting out intricate pieces, especially for lettering, so I had the idea to use alphabet stickers. You can pick these up really cheap from your local pound shop or dollar store depending on where you're from. I think mine were 40p a packet.
Tumblr media
Stick them to your fabric, use fabric paint and a sponge, then when you peel the stickers off you'll have the words in relief. You can go thicker than I have here to make the surrounding area totally opaque, but I like the edges being messy and faded out. These are both song titles from cyber/industrial bands that I like.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here are some other examples that I've done in the past. These were all done with pound shop spray paint which isn't ideal for fabric, but it's cheap! You'll also get more of the original fabric colour showing through with this kind of paint, which is nice.
If you're using black fabric, gold or silver paint will generally work better than white. These are all Devin Townsend song lyrics.

The only negative to this method for some people may be that the letters will be very uniform, but I like that. And if you want to you can space them irregularly to break things up a bit. Or you might be able to find more interestingly shaped alphabet stickers than I did!

I woke up with the sudden knowledge that we needed a wisteria vine outside the kitchen window. I was correct.
Before:

After:

During:
(I went with DIYing a fake one because A. instant gratification, B. they don't do great in Denver winters and C. we didn't want to court structural damage around our windows since vines can be a very pretty bitch once they latch onto a house).
