ysabetwordsmithI've been doing some garden crafts lately, so I thought it would be fun to gather project links that might inspire other folks...

Humble Bundle craft books
Jan. 28th, 2026 06:06 ammerrileemakesI just snagged the Humble Bundle quilting and embroidery bundle, 17 books on quilting (mostly with precuts), crazy quilting, sashiko and embroidery. I bought it because I wanted Purr-fect Patchwork, which is worth more than the whole bundle itself, but I'm excited to check out most of the titles.
The bundle is about $US20 (I see it in my own currency) and is available for the next 17 days.
Humble have also just released a knitting bundle, $US20 for 17 knitting books available for the next 10 days.

I installed the branches, air plants, and other decor. \o/ (Start with Photos: Fairy Garden Lantern Deconstruction, Photos: Lantern Terrarium Assembly Part 1 Gathering Materials, and Photos: Lantern Terrarium Assembly Part 2 Testing the Fit.)

ysabetwordsmithI spotted this video about harvesting, shaping, and firing wild clay. I did that back in high school at Ancient Lifeways Camp. It was a lot of fun to dig and clean the clay, then make things. Our theme was Sumeria, so we made oil lamps (harder than you'd think) and cuneiform quotes. I also made a ceramic goddess figurine. We used a pit fire, which helps keep the temperature more stable. If you have a source of natural clay, this kind of project is well worth trying.
We could use tags for Clay or Ceramics and Video. You might want something like Ancient Crafts or Historic Methods or the like.
