I've recently been playing around with some uv resins. They're pretty neat in what they can do, and how flexible controlled curing can be.
I've learned some nice lessons and tips from a couple of trials though.
I used to start with adding a clear base layer …
Last week I wrote a tutorial on how to make a cat pillow. It's a simple tutorial on something that is admittedly pretty basic. It is a pillow after all.

So, to simplify things, I've went and painted some mason jars black …
I've been playing around with some of Spoonflower fabrics. One of the small challenges that I've had is matching the colors they've picked as their fabric palette. They have a palette file (a .ase, used for Adobe products), but since I try my best to …
New option!
Some ideas are obvious after they've been thought, including the fact that cats love jingly things!
