      @marygatdula2744 Thank you Mary 🥰 I'm quite shocked at how realistic it turned out. The fibres in the card stock really helped it look so good. The whole things only took around 30 minutes to make start to finish 😄

    Excellent! Love the smoke technique! Also, great idea keeping shaved pastel powder in those little tubs, I never realised how much I would be using pastels before makeing minatures! Great time saver!

      @JoF999 Thank you Jo 😊 honestly jo, storing them in the mini paint pots is an absolute time and material saver. I used to rub the pastels off on to fine sandpaper use what I needed n bit the rest. Now it's all shaved n ready to go. I keep them in categories of things like, greens, red, neutrals and so on so I know what is what when selecting the pots I need

    Oh Joy, another tutorial😀. The cigar and ashtray are brilliant, I have used fibre filling for smoke before but cotton wool is a game changer. Thank you for sharing.🙏

    Hello Xander, your ashtray and cigar are fantastic, the cotton wool smoke is really effective, it really looked like smoke before you zoomed right in.
    Have a lovely week ahead.
    Best Wishes from Yorkshire 😊

      @Mary-mv2kn Thank you Mary ❤️ It is indeed. I reckon if Professor Okeo smoked.. he'd be a cigar kinda guy 😄

    Great short diy video ^^
    I want to make a pipe for my gnome, do you have any tips or suggestions for me?

    • @craftsbyxander
      @craftsbyxander  7 днів тому

      @bitcreativeilse ooooh, a gnomes pipe would be so cool to make.. depending on the size of the gnome the 1st thing that comes to mind is an earing back for the tobacco bowl part. Or I would probably paper quill the bowl if the earing back was too small. For the handle I would use clay I think 🤔😬 🥰
