I've been making lanyards for the last few months.

There are so many more possibilities when you move away from plastic lacing.

Leather, paracord, silicone, etc. all create wonderful woven structures. Making these is a lot like fiber arts, but I'm not sure if it would be classified as such. I'm focused on splitting and merging forms to create these tiny projects.

After figuring out the stitches, I was able to weave longer pieces of deerskin lacing into a necklace.

The image below shows a few that I saved from when I was a kid.

I'm considering making some free video tutorials and selling kits for simple leather keychains. Would you ever consider trying this craft?

got various colors of boondoggle for christmas and really only know the butterfly stitch lol so I did one in yellow and red like Tracy Lynn Cruz & Christopher Khayman Lee's Space colors lol (this stuff works well but stitches are a little hard to see 'cause it's thinner than usual)

If anyone wanted to see all my designs for the UDM students, here they are! Whenever I draw them I tend to age them up to like 13 years old or so? Also I don’t care what you say I’m gonna headcanon all the characters as queer and neurodivergent

Nory: upside-down Fluxer, bi, half black half white (canon)

Elliott: Freezer and weak Flare, pan, white

Willa: upside-down Fluid, bi, white

Andres: upside-down Flyer, bi, Mexican

Pepper: Fierce, lesbian, Chinese (canon? She’s described as Asian-American and Phan is a Chinese last name)

Bax: (MY BOY ‼️🫶) upside-down Fluxer (I also headcanon that he’s an upside-down Flicker as well, with the whole being able to turn stuff into stone thing from the second book. Originally it was a side-effect but as he got older he learned to do it on command), aroace, half Indian and half Filipino

Marigold: Fitter, pan, Spanish (I also headcanon she can speak English, Spanish, and ASL!)

Sebastian: upside-down Flicker, gay, white

I hope you like them all! 🫶
