I’ve been playing with my spirograph a lot the last few days, working on a book proposal before I came to my senses and realized that no way in hell do I have time to write a craft book. Anyway, I had fun coming up with ideas, so I’ll post a few of the ones that turned out cool.

First up, spirograph on shrink plastic. I tried this first on some smooth shrinky stuff that I already had, but it smeared too much. This type has one side textured so that it doesn’t smear.

Necklaces. One has a little hole punched in it, and the other I cut a bigger hole from the center for stringing.

Pushpins ala the famous Wee Wonderfuls tutorial. I found some little short “sequin” pins made for applique that are just perfect pushpin-length. (btw, I wasn’t going to include these in the proposal since it’s not my idea, but they clearly had to be made once I saw the necklaces.)
