Ok, so I am terrible at tutorials, so here is my best attempt to explain how to make a lunchbag, like the ones in my post from last night.

This is a big more of a crochet-type question so I hope it's ok. I just thought somebody might be able to help me.

I want to make the cute little japanese amiguru animals but can't find a good book in english. There are so many really cute ones in Japanese - which I can't read.

I saw one book in english but the animals weren't so cute and looked a bit clunky.

Can anyone help me out here?

TIA xxx

resin question

[jesusonrye.livejournal.com]

hi there, once again i've only a question:

Its about resin if I took, oh say a really adorable candy necklace pendant that had hello kitty on it and dipped it in resin to seal it, would it stay all cute and nice and not get gross, moldy, etc...?
in other words, Is it possible to just coat the piece of candy in resin and not put it in a block of it? I really only want the one part...not a really big, bulky thing.
or, maybe, is there another form of sealer I could use? really all I want is for the piece of candy not to rot. I was planning on saving the necklace because it is really cute and I love it.
so what can I do? I checked the memories, but it didn't really help much.


thanks!

What is the crinkly material in baby toys called and where I could get some? I would like to make a stuffed animal with it inside.
If this isn't the right place to ask I can delete this.

Thanks!

Another decorated Wal Mart tote.

[gillian-sans.livejournal.com]

I've been (sporadically) reworking $2 tote bags from Wal Mart. I've finished another one (previous efforts are here and here in case anyone is interested) and it is a bit more of the same, except on a black tote bag. I'd like to hear what you like/don't like about this one (just like you guys have done for me in the past), along with any suggestions you may have to make this one (or the next one, really) better.

Before:
