Misc. Crafts!
What are some cool crafts your working on? Or do you have an awesome idea for one? Post here! Right now, I'm making clay versions of My Little Ponies. I'm working on Fluttershy!

Re: Misc. Crafts!
I got myself a sewing machine (finally!) maybe I might make a few new plushies. 
Everything is better when you add a little cheddar, because when you have cheese your life is at ease

Re: Misc. Crafts!
Planning on making a cool USB drive out of an old 4GB one and an old USB A->B cable. Looks like a broken cable cut off near the A plug and frayed at the end, but in truth, it has a 4GB USB drive in it... let me see if I can find a picture of it to link to.

Something like that, but quite differently made, although the end result will look similar

I am totally doing that when I get a new, but cheap USB.
EDIT: I just realised that if you do a similar thing with a male-female USB thing, you can make a wrist band USB.

Re: Misc. Crafts!
I love making puppets, I've made a few paper puppets and one puppet made of of tops of root beer bottles [that turned out to be a lamp] But I'm making a full, muppet-like puppet right now, and I plan to enter it into the local county fair

Lotsa hard work and either glue or sewing. I'm no good at sewing so I just glue felt together
They are a lot of fun though, yeah.
