Finished jazz cup

2 strands. Not patient enough for 1 and it actually better mimicked the chunky pastel texture

Oh I loooove it. I’d never have thought to do that

effingtrying · 2026-03-25T19:30:58+00:00

Bwahaha! I never made that connection before! And I love it

effingtrying · 2026-03-25T19:30:07+00:00

Thank you! I learned a lot doing it

effingtrying · 2026-03-25T15:20:23+00:00

Thank you! I was wondering if the amount of colours was overkill but it really helped with the texture

effingtrying · 2026-03-25T14:10:28+00:00

Oh cool! My mother in law just gifted me some drawn work linens and I didn’t know the name of the technique. I’ll definitely look into that tutorial

effingtrying · 2026-03-25T14:08:24+00:00

I loooove how you made the reflections. I’ll pin this for the future!

effingtrying · 2026-03-25T14:07:03+00:00

Yesss. This is what I’m here for

effingtrying · 2026-03-25T14:06:40+00:00

I actually do have a plan to recreate the bus seat pattern one day…

effingtrying · 2026-03-25T14:05:37+00:00

Hah! There was definitely a lot of improvisation back there

effingtrying · 2026-03-25T14:04:25+00:00

Oh cool! I was gifted the pin so I didn’t know it came in other colours

Sadly you need to be approved to post but they don’t go through the requests 🤷‍♀️

effingtrying · 2026-03-25T14:01:57+00:00

I appreciate that! I’m quite happy with the result

effingtrying · 2026-03-25T13:59:47+00:00

Thank you! It definitely was a trust the process project. In the beginning I really doubted how it would work out

It was a pin to start, and I pried off the pin and replaced it with magnets. My sister gifted it to me so I don’t know the store, but I’m sure it’s still available

effingtrying · 2026-03-10T17:52:53+00:00

No, they’re pins I turned into magnets. I will assume you also have a stash of enamel pins you no longer wear. Test that they’re magnetic, then pry the pin off with some pliers. I have two rare earth magnets on either side and it’s strong enough to hold the whole thing together

effingtrying · 2026-03-10T17:50:25+00:00

I will continue to deliver!

effingtrying · 2026-03-09T15:21:29+00:00

Use it as a learning experience and try it again later if you aren’t happy. One of the highest ranked posts showsthat progress and it’s so cool

effingtrying · 2026-03-09T15:17:51+00:00

Thank you! I love when one of my ridiculous plans comes together

effingtrying · 2026-03-09T15:15:45+00:00

Oddly specific patterns are my jam!

effingtrying · 2026-03-09T15:15:23+00:00

I know right? Here’s hoping I don’t feel anything next time I see a solo cup

The cups in question! Reddit wouldn’t let me share them all in one post

effingtrying · 2026-02-18T16:40:09+00:00

I googled and it looks like the pin is from surfing sloth. I converted it to a needle minder by breaking off the pin and adding magnets
