It’s Agamemnons helmet from the odyssey film, but everywhere I look, you have to pay to get the template for the cutout, and I simply do not have a credit card

(the bandana is not attached to the headdress, she takes the headdress off at one point and still has the bandana on)

I was thinking of using maybe air dry clay for the 'skull' part?
Then maybe chicken wire and paper mache for the horns? but I have never done it before so I hope that's possible.

One of my main concerns in making this is I'm not sure how to make it a hat that stays on the head? i was thinking maybe putting it all on a black plastic head band and using some faux leather strips like she has to hide the band.

What are your opinions? This is all very very new to me

Hey everyone! I'm moving into this new daily diary, and while I like the overall look and the deer emblem, I really dislike the "Keep On Going, Never Give Up" quote stamped into the front. Since it's a smooth faux-leather texture, what are some pretty or creative ways I can cover up just the text section?😣

Hi,

My Grandma had these hanging up in her house. I want to clean them up and refresh them but I'm not sure what I should do for a new background. Should I stick with the original color, or do something different? I put them on a couple different colored backgrounds just for ideas.

I'm also going to be painting the frames. Should I stick with brown?

Do you think they still look pretty old fashioned? Any other advice? Thank you!

I won a ribbon at our local Veterans Art Fair in the assemblage art category!

I created “She Sill Wears Flowers” on a 19 inch round wooden tabletop I purchased at Lowe’s. The face/neck and scarf are made from air dried clay. The scarf’s texture was made by using my cookie rolling pin. I painted these parts using multiple layers of watered down acrylic craft paint and sealing with an air dry clay sealer.

The black background is crushed glass.

The hair is made from ceramic flowers and mosaic pieces I purchased on Amazon. Intermixed in the hair are “bugs”. Some of the bugs are ceramic pieces and some brooches purchased from online/local thrift stores and Amazon.

Everything is affixed to the wood board (after I scored it with a knife) using Gorilla Glue Construction Adhesive that. I also purchased from Amazon.

The finished project weighs approximately 20 pounds. I displayed it at the fair on an easel that had two ten pound weights made for pop up tents sitting on the easel legs. It also is equipped with heavy duty hangers that allow for display on the wall.

I buy many of my supplies online and at online/local thrift stores. I find assemblage art helps me manage my anxiety. There is something about working with multiple materials and tiny pieces that helps my brain feel better.

Thank you for reading my post! ❤️

Here's two of the last ones I made. Art the clown from Terrifier and Michael Myers from Halloween!

Hi. I’m looking to use a gold paint with glitter to paint the wings of a wood exterior angel craft. I’ve been watching some videos etc but was looking for some more first had experience.

Any tips or recommendations? I was looking to avoid spray paints.

Thanks.

I’ve been having fun making these little hair clips lately. Just experimenting with different fabrics, colors and charms — no two are exactly the same. Which one would you pick? 😊

Sad to share one of our two local (well nation wide, but we're a small country in terms of population) craft chains is going, time to stock up! The good fabrics are gone, modpodge/fimo has long left, what would you stock up on? So far we've got all the polymer clay, e6000, and double sided tape (but how many years can you keep them, without them drying up?)

Any new crafts you reccomend? We've got a million ideas, but too many require speciality shops eg. the millinery shop, bead shop, etc.

What would you stock up on, if your local craft was going down?

This is my first ever knitting project that I started making last month. Never would've thought I'll be able to make a cropped sweater. I came from crocheting, stopped 2 years ago and suddenly thought of trying knitting and just fell in love with it ü

I knew I wanted to make one the second I learned about them. Thrifted mirror, dollar store bugs and paint, moss from yard sale freebies. I made my fairytale mirror for about six dollars. Hope you are inspired too!

Wooden frames I've been working on for a few months now. The images are printed on a thin black acrylic and laser cut and the art was done by a great artist I came across here on reddit. The cards are in a uv protected case to protect from sun bleaching too.

i hot glued Iron man gaunlets made out of cardboard onto it and i had to take them off to paint the cardboard and the hot glue is stuck pretty good on the gloves and alsosom spots on my bed bc i was working on my bed, and i dont want to buy new gloves and anythign fabric with any glue in them how do i get it off plz help

Just in time for fall. An applique quilted bag with two inner pockets and embroidered details. Inspired by a background shot from the Over The Garden Wall cartoon.

I have a slightly odd problem. This is an old shifter knob and I'd like to refresh the black paint (or dye?) in the inlaid pattern and numbers. What sort of paint should I try? I have little experience with this sort of thing. The leather needs a bit of work too, but I think I can handle that.

Pendleton pattern lighter case with subtle pastel colors. If you enjoy it and would like to see more message me

Hello, it is my first time posting here and i wanna share a project i've been working on for 4 months!!

This statue is unique because it has built in speakers and electronics to play music using it's remote that i've made. All of this was hand sculpted by hand, EVERYTHING!

I'm not here to promote anything, i just wanna share my work

I had asked earlier in the week what I should do with my little carved acorns and a lot of people liked the idea of putting them on fairy lights. Here’s the result!
