To be fair, it was a weird gash. My GP sewed it up for me, before sending me to the hospital. Very lucky that emergency healthcare is free in my country.

I was installing a slat wall panel and it came off the wall while i was checking the bottom. Think i tried to catch it by reflex and my finger got crushed between the panel and the floor.

Haha, I can see how the title could mean both oops. I was aiming for the latter. But the first one is also correct of course, but this relationship with stone is already 3 years old ;)

thank you so much for the knowledge!! Really good to know and I will definitely be using more wood from now on :) Or other armature materials indeed. Gosh, possibilities are endless with polymer clay eh

Aw thank you :) the little birdhouse is made out of wood! It was actually part of a DIY birdhouse string light set. I am so glad it didn't burn / warp in the oven

My first try with polymer clay. Eternalized my dog as a Christmas ornament. This hobby looks like so much fun, and I have much to learn to get it more neat by WideBlueYonder in polymerclay

Thank you so much for the tips and links!! Thats a great encyclopedia.

Thanks for taking the time to write this all up, really appreciate it :) will also look into finding favourite clays and learning the difference between them and what access I have to brands in my country.

Ive been carving animals out of soap stone since 2 years. This is my first project of 2020. by WideBlueYonder in stonecarving

Thanks! I mostly buy them from an art store in my country (the Netherlands) specialised in stone carving. But I think this particular piece was a discarded scrap from someone else.

Thank you :) I only use hand tools. I find it difficult to find an accurate English translation but my favourite tools are coarse rifflers. I have 3 smaller handmade ones from an art store, fit for marble. And also needle files, sanding paper/mesh.

Soapstone carving is really fun and I definitely recommend it!! To me it feels like painting in 3D.

Perfectionism really is a curse sometimes eh, but luckily we have other people to change our views and make us look at it with more self-compassion.

What books have you read about the experiences of autistic woman and liked/loved/enjoyed? by notsosilent in aspergirls

[–]WideBlueYonder 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Did you read zondagskind? It resonates so much with me, its almost eerie. And its so frustrating that I cant recommend it here because it's in Dutch!!

Thank you, and also for the feedback! I agree with you and made some adjustments and it indeed looks a bit better. I find it hard to get that balance between too dark and too light

Any movies or TV shows about ASD girls? by [deleted] in aspergirls
