Paint by numbers revival



Image by Bilge Can Gürer from Pixabay

 

For a few years, a few years ago (lol), I did some paint by numbers. I really enjoyed the painting and the end result looks amazing. 

I have quite a lot of hobbies now and my last two paint by numbers I never finished. I think because some of the paint had dried, because I left the painting too long at times and the other painting I just didn’t enjoy the picture, so they didn’t get completed.

I then got distracted with new hobbies such as diamond painting, which is similar to paint by numbers. With diamond painting you match the drill to the number to create a picture. 

However, I have redecorated my home and put up my finished paint by numbers. So I decided to try another one. A few years ago, I had to buy the wooden frame with the canvas and build it together but now you have the option to buy a ready frame, where the company puts the frame and canvas together for you. 

If you are interested, please find the affiliate link of where you can purchase the paint by numbers here: 



Please note by buying something from an affiliate link that I provide you, I get a payment from the business. 

Have you ever tried paint by numbers, what has been your most favourite painting to date? Please comment below.

Reshuffling my craft space for scrapbooking

When you feel uninspired change up your craft space  So I haven’t been scrapbooking as much because I have a set of drawers with stickers, washi tape and other cool stationery and then I have my tub of scrapbooking paper in my cupboard.  I was thinking about what I could do to bring my scrapbooking closer. Here’s a photo of my tub of scrapbooking paper. Look how undesirable it looks. Inside I have large paper about A4 size and A3. Then I have 12x12 inch paper. Plus an ice cream tub full of scrap paper.  It just made me feel unsatisfied and what makes me excited to work on a hobby is that I can see the resources and get excited to get started. But this set-up was not empowering me. I started brainstorming about maybe making a craft space. I found a table from IKEA with draws on both sides that I could put my scrapbooking paper and accessories in as well as my diamond painting. I also found a desk backing which is like a three level high shelving that attaches to the table....

What supplies do you need for crocheting?

So you have started crocheting. Crocheting is super fun and sometimes tricky and sometimes hard. Also, once you get started and if you are like me, you will have multiple crocheting projects happening at once.  There is a logical reason for this. Because you can have multiple projects at once because you may take different projects with you when catching public transport and have to go somewhere. So a smaller, easier project to pack is ideal and also it gives you something to do while you travel. You may have bigger projects like blankets at home, because they are simply bulkier and heavy to carry. Plus, I prefer to crochet blankets at night, while I’m winding down and watching TV. Mainly because I don’t count stitches for my blankets.  So I tend to do crocheting arigumani in the morning or day time on the weekends, so I have a focussed mind to count those important stitches.  Ok, so that’s why you could have multiple crocheting projects. The other reason is you simply ge...

Should I buy a crocheting kit or just a pattern?

  Well, I have written about how cool crocheting kits are previously but do you need a kit or just a pattern? Let’s explore both: A crocheting kit A crocheting kit includes everything you need to make that crocheting project once. It includes the yarn, stuffing, crocheting hook, sewing needle and pattern. A crocheting kit is pretty cool.   As long as you can read a pattern and know the stitches short names to what they actually mean. Such as ch equals chain and sc equals single crochet. If you know the crocheting terms, then you can read a pattern. The good news about the kit, is you literally have all you need to make the pattern once. Sometimes these crocheting kits, have more than one object to make as well. The kit will include all the coloured yarn for each of the projects as well. Because I use a big crochet hook, 5mm and in the kits the hooks are generally 3mm or 3.5 mm, I also know I can’t use the yarn provided. Because using a bigger hook means I need more...
