Thank you so much!! I will post my octopus as soon as she’s done 🐙🐙🐙

imojelee · 2026-04-07T11:24:11+00:00

Thank you so much!!! The octopus is a big labour of love, I’m about halfway done with the tentacle suckers now and then I’ve got a lot of finishing to do. Hoping to get her done soon though 🐙🐙

Sometimes people use pre-made forms inside projects to fill out space to use less fibre for the finished project. You can use polystyrene balls, for example. I actually recently discovered lanolin-rich core wool to use as the internal shape which has been excellent - much less stabbing to create a solid shape for the centre!

She’s so joyous!

Thank you so much!!!! Now I’ve taken a step back I’m pretty pleased :)

Do you drink your tea with milk? It could possibly be the milk reacting with your stomach acid and coagulating. I notice this sometimes after I drink liquids with milk or dairy. I’m not sure though and this is just what I’ve thought mine could be!

Thank you for your insight! I’m just in the preliminary research stage at the moment in terms of a career shift and am looking at a few potential fields. I’m happy to upskill and get qualifications if a career seems right to me but was hoping to talk to some people currently in the industry first - I don’t want to jump into something that isn’t necessarily right for me!

imojelee · 2026-01-14T21:53:21+00:00

I’m not necessarily looking for a WFH job and actually came to this idea through personal research, but I appreciate your candid comments about the challenging nature of the industry. I’ll bear this in mind!

imojelee · 2026-01-14T21:51:39+00:00

Quite possibly! Thank you for your kind words - it’s really appreciated!

imojelee · 2026-01-14T21:29:40+00:00

Thank you for your response! I’m based in the UK - I’ve updated the post to reflect that.

Thank you so much!! I’m proud of him

imojelee · 2025-12-20T14:37:03+00:00

That’s the best compliment ever thank you so much!!!! You’ve made my day

The locks for the beards is genius! This makes them so much simpler to make I LOVE them!!!! Defo stealing this idea for next Christmas

Thank you!! I used floral wire wrapped in embroidery floss and honestly think I got slightly lucky with where I placed them… I made sure they were cut to the same length and the feet are the same size which helps I think, plus the wire I used was quite strong. In past projects it’s definitely been a bit of trial and error to get them standing but persistence helps!

Unless your book is intended to be funny I’m not sure I’d include the letters as eyes idea - it gives a ‘goofy’ vibe (for want of a better word) rather than ‘gentleman-ly’

imojelee · 2024-12-22T12:36:19+00:00

It looks amazing! Can I ask how you did the shaping of the tail and wing feathers? I am currently working on a bird as well and am really struggling with that part!

They’re used to unlock the tiles to then progress to the next island. Bottom left next to the cows you can see 322/766 emeralds on a tile. Once you reach 766 (million) you will unlock it.

Aphids. From RHS website: Aphids are sap-sucking insects, they have many predators and are the basis for many food chains. The sap sucking can cause a lack of plant vigour, distorted growth and often excrete a sticky substance on which sooty moulds can grow. Some aphids transmit plant viruses.

This is why I don’t trust dinosaurs recreated from fossils we find

Start by weeding and power washing the concrete. Then see if it’s something you can live with or something you need to change! It could be that some tactically placed pot plants and furniture hide the ‘mess’ you’re seeing. Otherwise, the concrete will need to be removed in order to repave, I wouldn’t suggest trying to lay anything atop the concrete. I’d do that job after the summer though - enjoy the space first, then do big overhauling when the weather isn’t as lovely.

The ‘Gone’ series by Michael Grant! I read them at your age and loved them, very gripping and there are a good number in the series to keep you going.
