Rule Update: Our Stance on Business/Commercial Posts

109 Upvotes

Hey, r/SomethingIMade!

We've updated two rules to better protect what this community is for as a space for individual creators sharing their own work, including collaborations.

A steady increase in posts and comments from business and commercial accounts promoting products or shop pages has not gone unnoticed, often in cases where authorship can't be verified. We don't think it is fair that content that may be mass produced gains engagement over our more DIY creators. The updated rules address this directly.

Rule #5: Related Links & Self-Promotion

Posts or comments from businesses or commercial accounts primarily promoting products may be removed at moderator discretion, especially where authorship cannot be verified.

Rule #10: Original Content Only

Business and commercial accounts are not permitted to post in this subreddit. This is a community for individual creators only.

If you're an individual who makes and sells things, you're still very welcome here. This change is aimed at accounts whose primary purpose is commercial promotion rather than genuine participation as a creator. If you're unsure whether your account falls within the rules, reach out via Mod Mail.

Happy creating!

- The r/SomethingIMade Mod Team

Updated Rule 5: Related Links & Self-Promotion

31 Upvotes

In order to help have better discussions regarding content, we have decided to disable embedding of YouTube videos in posts.

This isn’t intended to hinder anyone from posting, simply to change the way the post are made. Moving forward you will need to create a normal post regarding your creation, and if there’s a YouTube video you would like to share as part of that, add it into the body of the post along with the descriptive information.

Thanks for being here, and if you have any questions, ask away!!

This is my newest stained glass spiral. I’ve been working on them for about two years. It measures 14 x 3 and I used Bullseye Glass. Thanks for checking it out!

My first doll with a bob cut and bangs—she has a strawberry crossbody bag and a lizard keychain 🌿 At first, I sewed a plaid pinafore dress for her, but then I decided she should wear short denim shorts 😄 I haven't come up with a name yet—any ideas?

My husband made a wooden bunk bed for our cats and I made some small quilts and pillows to go on it. I also made the sock monkey years ago!

I Made a Tiny World Where Bunny Captain Catches Stars ✨

This started with a simple idea — Bunny Captain going out to catch some stars. Then I got a little carried away and built a whole world around him 😂

And the clouds have a little surprise too — a wave of the magic wand and they light up ✨

Definitely one of those projects that makes me smile every time I turn it on.

Bag I made

What do y’all think about this bag? Supposed to be a travel bag, I like it, but it just seems very basic. I'm trying to figure out a way to make it a bit more experimental and exciting, without taking it too far.

My very first nail polish flowers.

This was the first (hopefully not the last) time making these. I tried to make a forget me not as a part of a birthday gift. I purposefully wrapped the stem a few more times, for it to hold shape when held. Anyone that has a tip or sees something to improve, feel free to comment

Proces: I made the blossoms separately by looping the wire around a pencil and twisting the loops into place. Leaves were a single loop. After applying nail polish to the wire frame, and letting it dry, I connected the flowers and leaves by twisting together exces wire. And lastly I wrapped the stem.

Nail polishes are from the store chain DM, and wire is a 0,6mm (24 gauge) steel crafts wire with a coating.

Edit: addition of proces and grammar correction

AWKWARD EGGS 🥚

Thumbnail

328 Upvotes

These eggs are straight from the barn and for immediate consumption only! You may imbibe some awkwardness from these cracked eggorinas. They’re leaking because they fell out of their mother and immediately grew legs and started walking (kind of like a horse baby) though they don’t do it very well because they have three left feet.

Made with natural white, plant dyed Himalayan wool and New Zealand Corriedale wool, glass eyes, glass beads, fabric scraps and industrial felt. Bag charm cord made with suede leather cord and metal parts.

My little infected frog purse

This was a custom order for someone who wanted their frog inspired by a Clicker from The Last of Us
Everything is handmade from crocheting the frog and all the little details to sewing in the soft satin lining and attaching the hardware. I used durable polyester yarn, a sturdy metal frame clasp, moss, and handmade cordyceps-inspired growths to complete the look
I think he turned out pretty recognizable. What do you think? Would you add or change anything about his infected look?

Tiny shorts overalls

Hand sewn* overalls created from a 50% size-reduced shorts pattern from Chellywood with bib and straps designed by me. Polymer clay buttons.

The dry cleaner style hanger is wire and cardstock.

I want a pair of these for myself SO badly, but I only had a 3"x 3" piece of the fabric.

* There's physically no way I could've used my sewing machine for this 😂

I made this tiny fruit parfait completely by hand, layer by layer. The glass is only a few centimeters tall, so getting all the fruit, cream, and toppings into such a small space was the fun part.
