What did you make?

I have noticed that members in here are rather creative, yet we need a thread where you can share your creations.
This is it! I'll go first.
I made a Slytherin themed wand.

That's really cool.

Have you ever had Neuhaus chocolate? I got a package from my friend in Denmark the other day, and he sent me a whole lot of wonderful chocolate, including a box of Neuhaus... which I think is the most complex and delicate chocolate that I've ever tasted. It's amazing.

I made another :P I know both wands are very short, but I had nothing longer that I could not be without.

Whoa, Timeless. When I first saw these I almost thought it was blown glass. Impressive.

Thank you
Feels much more comfortable than blown glass, because the paint and glue gives friction when you hold them, so they don't slide, and that is awesome

Just out of curiousity, do you have a craft store or home decor store nearby? I'm thinking you could maybe use dowel rods as an armature or maybe a small curtain rod. (I was almost thinking an old car antenna, but I don't know where you'd get one). Would any of that work?

Well, I suppose they could, but I prefer brushes or chopsticks because of the size and the fact that they are already wood. I just need to go out and buy some cheap brushes that are longer And crafting the entire handle from glue is preferable because you can do so much with it

Okay. I get you. Yeah, brushes and chopsticks would work better (but I hear where you're coming from. I would be hard put to part with my brushes, or chopsticks for that matter). However, if you really got ambition someday, I think this would look so cool on the end of a walking stick. Hmmm.

Well, I would need larger lava beads then :P But that could be cool, decorating an entire walking stick like this!

Turns out one of my long brushes was worn and needed changing soon, so I let it serve it's final purpose by becoming a Gryffindor wand.



(Getting tired of me posting wands soon?)

Oh those are WANDS!

...Man. I was getting increasingly nervous with each one.

Good work.

Xombie. Are you a metalworker/blacksmith by chance?

Well since I kind of posted my last one in the picture thread I won't put it here as well. But when I do anything new I'll chuck it in here

I have an idea needling away for a sea themed head-dress, involving leather and auger shells, pearls and dried sea fan, seagull feathers and if I can get any, some old vintage sealskin from an old coat or mitten or something .

I have absolutely NOWHERE to wear such a thing and haven't the figure for the sort of outfit it would go with . But it's poking the back of my brain more insistently so it will get itself made soon enough I reckon..

.... I made scones... they didn't work...

Maybe I need to sit next to Timeless and get some creative abilities via osmosis.

Fruity: Thanks :3 You make me feel special
Ashley: Do I even want to know what you thought they were...? o.o
Honeythorn: That does sound awesome And hey, who says you have to have a use for anything to make it? I don't go to Hogwarts, yet I made wands :P

Xombie, love the bottle openers.
TR, re: "...who says you have to have a use for anything to make it?" Thanks for that. I've had a hankering to make another Southwestern style wreath, but I already have one. (Tried selling them, but people just said they were nice, and, "You know, with the economy, and all that ...," so I gave up). I think I might just do that. After all, I've got a spare wreath form, and feathers, and leathers and pony beads, and ... hmmm.

You totally should The creative process is worth more than you could make from selling whatever you are making

This is so true. Sometimes, you just need to create, and it doesn't matter if it can be sold, it's good for your mental health/spirit/soul - whatever you want to call it.

I'm sewing toilet roll holders - but I've run out of patience with them, and now we are having a staring competition to see who is going to give in first.

Sometimes, I don't even care if what I make is good or bad, I just want to create
