Quite a few months back someone in my neighborhood was going through recently passed moms things and clearing out a lot of crochet related items. She had thread, hooks, notions, just about everything a crocheter would need. Not only that, she had an INSANE collection of very old/vintage magazines and pattern books. I collect them…

Woohoo!! FINALLY…A real update! Hahahaha… Getting his body just right has been one hell of a process. Not to mention getting a good amount of “movement” into him but still keeping a natural look. I’m honestly very thrilled with how he’s turning out as a whole! I’d say I’m confidently halfway finished with making him.…

Lots show the end result of their art, but how often do you really see the behind the scenes look into how they go about making them? So here you go! A wonderful behind the hook look hahaha! This body is now as big as my torso 😅 making it increasingly difficult to work up…

If you’re new here…Welcome! Those that have been here a while should know by now that mixing mediums is what I do! And this Falkor custom is no different! I want this to look as legit as possible, so I’m pulling out ALL my chaos for him. Started with his nostrils and now to his…

It’s very easy for people that don’t make things with their hands to forget or just not realize how long handmade things take. Regardless of the media being used, be it knitting, woodworking, sewing, crochet, or any number of other art forms. It all takes time and skill. It has happened to me, unfortunately more…

It has begun! I have officially begun working on Falkor and I’m already pushing my brain 🤣I knew before I even started that his nose was going to be a bit of a headache, so what better place to start! Know his nose and mainly nostils were going to give me some grief…Not only did…
