Painting by numbers

Image
Saw this painting by numbers canvas quite a while ago. Finally got it to complete as a gift. The set comprised of 3 different size paint brush, the set of colors required for the painting, the canvas with the color numbers printed, a small picture of the colored painting and the hooks. Overall was fun but took me a few days to complete because I didn't want my painting to be accidentally smudged by the paint colors. The completed version I started with the smaller/inner areas and/or colors that are lighter tone. Took roughly 2 weeks for me to complete because I stopped in between a few days as I want it to be completely dry.

Craft Ideas - Alphabet Characters Resin Keychain

I spent more time on mix and match than putting them together. (LOL) (Flower piece for the ladies) Another design that was made simpler and neat, but I wanted that edgy feel so I didn't sand it off so it look more defined. (And just a simple alphabet part for the men)  

Home Improvement: My own mockup drawing with Paint

Image
My living room has quite space. When I reached home with big bags of groceries or other stuffs, I struggled to find an area to leave them on. It's either my dining table or the kitchen but I won't be able to close the door until I am done with unloading the stuffs from my hand.  So I came up with the mock up below (did it with Paint) But in the end, I overestimated on the space I had. The space wasn't long enough for such a table design. So I settled for a kitchen shelf, a bag hanger pole and a shoe rack with seat. The mock up
