I have flowers from my late grandpa's memorial service that I'm pressing/3D preserving for all my cousins.

I preserved/dried the 3D flowers (roses) in flower drying crystals and all went well but how should I seal them so they aren't so fragile? I was thinking mod-podge or some clear glaze spray paint. Any recommendations?

I live in a college town, and a lot of people don’t care too much about their stuff at the end of the semester and throw out a lot of nice/cool things. I just found mannequin arms in a dumpster, and (after giving them a THOROUGH cleaning) I want to figure out some kind of craft I can do with them. they’re black, plastic, and none of the parts are bendable. feel free to contribute any ideas that may come to mind :)

Hello,

I finished painting my 2 piece pleather outfit with Angelus leather paints and even though my project is definitely dry, when I wipe very hard, a bit of color is left on the tissue. It isn't paint consistency, is the consistency of eyeshadow. If I put a towel over the project and use an iron, can that fully set the paint?

I'm getting a head start on Halloween decor and will need a bunch of newspaper. Sadly, I haven't collected much over the years as we don't get the right kind of newspaper material for paper mache. I contacted a local newspaper company and they said I could buy 50 copies for $10, but I would prefer to try some free options first. Aside from contacting local colleges and neighbors, does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Trying to use/organize all the odds and ends I've collected and held on to over the years...making some bookmarks...maybe put a box of them up at my lical library for folks to take for free? Anyone have any ideas for me?

Why can’t I find any answers on the Internet about this?

Ideal would be a stick on wheel beneath the paper. I want swivel joints without the big ugly pin :)

Hello! I was recently gifted a bunch of tulle alongside some fabrics I needed for an unrelated project, and I'm wondering if anyone would like to show off their tulle projects to help with some inspiration, or just share any cool crafts they've seen/heard of?

When I was looking around online, I found a limitless number of dresses, tutus, bows and basic pompom/bow accessories, and while there were a few things I found interesting (attaching tulle to lighting, wreaths, and embroidery), a lot of the results were very repetitive.

Tulle's fun texture seems under-appreciated, so if anyone had particularly creative uses for tulle, I would love to see them!

Hello all, im making suncatchers with gallery glasss paints, and Im wanting to make a custom shape suncatcher, ive got some thin sheets of plastic, however when I tried cutting them into the shape i wanted, my xacto knife let me down. Wondering if theres any easy ways to cut plastic without it splintering and cracking.
I would include a picture but the suncatcher is going to resemble a dissected frog, and I dont want to disturb any of the more sensitive viewers of this post (no shade intended)(i dont use reddit much so idk how to put a spoiler over pics lol)

Thanks for reading please help if you can 🙏🙏

from regular wear, stored folded up, and especially in the wash

Hi I’ve used the machine for paper and shrink plastic . I was told it works with balsa wood as well. Can anyone please suggest how to set up the plates for successfully cutting ? I am getting an impression, not a cut. The thickness of the balsa is: approx.2mm / 0.08 inches Using regular dies. Thanks!

Just bought some matching frames, printed the silhouettes, and had some fun with buttons, flowers, jewels, etc. Such a simple and fun project and my niece loves them ❤️.
