All kinds of things! I sell stuff on etsy. Earrings, rings, keychains, bracelets, really just whatever I feel like making! I have a rock tumbler which I love, and I do quite a bit of wire wrapping. I need to go do a big listing soree and upload a bunch of things. Polymer clay is also a big medium for me. Oh! And I adore painting and scratch art.

Spoiler: Too many photos.... 😬

Wow! You're very talented. I love those little chicken earrings! So cute! And your scratch art is impressive! Who would have thought you could make something so detailed with a scratch board!

Thank you so much!

I know! It's become one of my favorite mediums. My obsession started when I had to do it as an art project a few years back. I haven't been able to go back! Super easy too! You don't need a ton of supplies, all I use is a scratchboard and tool like this, and that's it! Nothing special or lots of tools required.

What a nifty thread! I've found some cool crafts on BYC. Awhile back I saw a lady who made potholders here and I'm so glad I ordered some from her, they were so beautiful.

My husband and I have a little sawmill so I am making little wood projects all the time. I take pallets from businesses that will burn or toss them, and make things like pallet crosses, pallet signs, etc. We pick up deer hides and other things from a processor that just disposes of them, tan the hides and make hair-on or buckskin. I got a lace maker and love to braid the buckskin. We take the legs and make bone needles, incense holders, all sorts of cool things. The pine needle hand brooms are always really fun to make, they're so handy to keep in the kitchen or in the shop - used one the other day to sweep up some spilled coffee grinds from the countertop. I have made walking sticks for years, ever since I was a kid, and I just use a pocket knife to whittle it down and sometimes leave bark on in designs. My husband is about to set up our woodshop better where we can make cutting boards and maybe even photo frames. We have our hands in alot of different craft pies, but I enjoy it. It's so relaxing to me to just be able to work on little projects like this.

So cool! I would love to see some pictures! It sounds like you're experienced in many trades!

@CluckNDoodle - I was actually about to share some, thank you so much! A few photos of some of the mentioned things - pallet cross, bone needles, walking stick, pine hand brooms (old style before I brought the binding down further), buckskin "pony" doll, buckskin lace.
