♥ #PolaroidDrawingChallenge Update 2

Leave a Comment

Hey Lovelies!

Time for another update of my #PolaroidDrawingChallenge! Well to be honest, there’s not much to say. I missed a lot weeks to draw at least 1 polaroid. But a lot is going on and I really had to take care of myself first, instead of pushing myself, like all the time.

I only got 7 polaroids done for the second quarter of the year, instead of 13… That’s just half of the polaroids that had to be finished. Let’s hope I can make up for these the next 3 months! I feel like I have to! SO, if you have any idea’s for polaroid, LET ME KNOW~~! Haha

I started to practise drawing some animals as well. Specially Owls! They are some of my favorite birds and I almost never draw them >_<. So, I hope I can draw some like furry animals in the future as well! I’m scared of the fur tho, it’s so hard, I tried before and didn’t liked it at all xD good luck to me!

This was my little update! Next week will be a very cute and fluffy crochet project! Look forward to it~~!

Love

♥ Crochet! How small can you go?!

Hey Lovelies!

How are you all doing?! This week I decided to challenge myself, crochet something as small as I could go! I always love to make small things. In school I always heard that I worked way to small haha, it’s just my thing, I guess.

On the internet I often saw people crochet these tiny plushes. Always amazed by them and wondered how that was possible. Never thought of making one myself… until now. I thought why not try it, I can always quit! xD So, I grabbed my embroidery floss (I was cleaning it out anyway), devided it into 3 parts (so 2 threads in a bundle), and just go. I used a 0,9mm hook.

At the beginning I was like.. HOW do you do this >_< annoyed a bit, but I kept trying. I just don’t give up easily! And after a while of trying and doing my best to make it look like crochet xD, it actually started to get like normal crochet.. only small! It wasn’t so hard at all, easier as I could ever imagine! In the end I enjoyed crocheting so tiny. Can you imagine that?! haha.

I made a dragon from my own pattern (Which I will not share, I’m sorry!) And it’s just 4cm in length! I love it! I made the eyes from a bit of UV resin and black paint, then glued it on. In case you were wondering! I hope you can see in the pictures how tiny it is!

I made 2 other dragons to compare: for the big one I used Royal Acrylic yarn from the Zeeman (100g, 241m), made with a 3,5mm hook, it’s about 12cm in length. For the middle one I used Supersoft Acrylic yarn also from the zeeman (50gr, 199m), with a 2mm hook, it’s about 8cm in length.

I think, I’m addicted to crocheting small now… xD I wanna make so many more! I might try to go a bit smaller and use sewing thread with a 0,75mm hook. Let’s start another Ufufy! haha. I will keep you updated on my instagram and probably make a blog post about it, when I made plenty.

NOW I challenge you as well! How small can you go?! Tag me on instagram/twitter/vero if you tried! love to see if you could do it too!

Have a wonderful day everyone!

Love
Daniëlle

Hey Lovelies!

This week there will be no DIY! Nuu~~ I hear you haha. But, remember I set a challenge for this year?! My #PolaroidDrawingChallenge?! Well, let’s give you an update how it goes so far. I wasn’t able to do one every week, that happens sometimes. And when I can’t finish one in a certain week, I try to catch up the next week.

Here are all the polaroids I have drawn, from the first 3 months. I love how they look together. So, different from a Single shot. And, Yes, 1 is missing, that one is shipped. (goodbye my loved one xD).

And as you can see in my Bullet Journal Tracker, there are weeks that are still white, and stay white. These are the weeks I missed. But in some weeks you also see a doodle, this means that I have done 2 polaroids that week. ^-^

I love how it is gong so far and I definitely wanna stick to it. I have still 2 polaroids to go that I missed, I need to catch these up. Let’s see what I can do this week.

Have a lovely day everyone!

Love
Danielle
