Pokemon Flip Coin Cufflinks

And I have finally found a use for the hundreds upon hundreds of pokemon coins my boyfriend has accumulated.

Cufflinks!

How is this not awesome? They are available in my etsy shop :)

Depending on the feedback I get about them, they will become available in a variety of the TCG coins that were released.

Pokemon Perler Project

Slowly slowly i'm creating an ABC poster type thing made from perler beads. Only, each letter will be represented by a pokemon. The reason this is taking me so long is a mixture of me not ordering new colours and getting my shop ready and sorting out a few orders I already have. But, this shouldn't be too far away, and it will look quite awesome!

Donkey Kong Dice Bag

I've started a habit of needing to buy pretty dice. And with that I need a place to keep them. This isn't it. Instead of taking time to make something for myself tonight, I caved and made a dice bag for my boyfriend. At his request it has The Donkey Kong logo on it.

I thought I'd do something a bit different and use a button closure instead of a drawstring. And since my sewing machine is still not fixed, it is hand sewn.

Johto League Badge Magnets

Johto League Pokemon badges, in magnet form. Very happy with the result and they're so bright on the fridge. These are so addictive to make and I could have easily spent so many hours making more.

And just because I could...

Navi Cat Stick Toy

HEY, LISTEN!
 
Based on Navi from Zelda. The body is made to look like a ball of yarn for the lucky cat who gets to play with this, and the wings are a soft tulle sewn around some beading wire. Of course I had to include the bell to hopefully get my cat to play with this. The light made it look purple in the photo but the yarn I used is actually a light blue. I'll try to take a better photo during the day tomorrow


Unfortunately my cat lives 2 hours away since my landlord won't allow pets, so if I get a chance to visit her this weekend, I'll let you know what my cat thinks of this. But how could it fail? It's Navi after all.

Power Star Pin Cushion

Just a quick late night project after I realised I don't own a pin cushion. This Mario Power Star is much cuter in real life and it was fun to make as well. I just used scraps of felt that I had lying around after previous projects.

Jigglypuff Needle Felt

Yep, it's Jigglypuff. My favourite of all pokemon. The only real reason I chose to do this was because it is so hard to find a Jigglypuff other than a plastic one that doesn't look weird with a badly proportioned curl.

I started this project having had no prior experience with needle felt, other than watching a 4 minute youtube video, so I'm fairly happy with the result. I think the arms should have been smaller, but I don't think they're too bad.

 

Question Mark Block Door Stop

My first of hopefully many projects for this blog. A door stop based on the question mark blocks from the Mario series.


The cube is made entierly of felt, the brown is woolen felt and the yellow and black is acrylic felt. Inside is a cube made out of calico filled with uncooked rice. I decided to use the two cubes for extra strength, so down the track I wouldn't be finding bits of rice everywhere.
the design is held on by a ultrahold iron-on adhesive and the edges of the yellow squares are sewn.


I plan to get in the habit of making at least one thing each week or at least every fortnight, and posting it here on a Tuesday or Saturday. For some projects I'll also post a tutorial. I promise they will all somehow be game or anime related.


Emly.
