Hey guys! In this video I thought it would be fun to go through a few of my older projects that didn't exactly go as planned. It's always been my goal to show you projects that actually work - but sometimes things just don't hold up! (PS - hopefully the audio isn't too messed up - I need to set up an indoor filming space before I do any more "on camera" videos!)

No, it’s just my favorite color! (It’s been my favorite color my whole life - long before BTS was popular) They’re fine, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to listen to them/buy their merch.

My dad got me this scented modelling clay set once, so I made fruits out of every color and piled them up inside a plastic container and put it on a shelf and forgot about it. Fast forward a few years later when I was cleaning out my room and found it. I was excited to find an excuse to stop cleaning and start playing with the synthetic strawberry scented stuff again, but as soon as I opened the container it stank up my whole room with the smell of car oil, and the clay was so degraded that it crumbled in some parts and had a layer of yellowish grease in others. My hands felt so gross and slimy and I had to wash them in vinegar to get rid of the grease. I threw em all out. R.i.p clay fruits :'(

so last year i got posca pens and was so excited to use them. I decided to put them on my tablet case and it ended up looking horrible! The paint chips of, the colors don't looks good and it is just not a good idea. So, if you have a tablet case that has the 3 sectioned thing so you can fold it up and hold up your tablet, you might want to rethink before you paint it. Anyways, i enjoyed the video, can't wait to see another one:)

I had major flashbacks to my woodworking horror when you mentioned, "power tools are not as scary as you think." Back in HS, I ended up starting one of the saws directly on top of the wood while our teacher had told us not to do this... Alas, I almost took out several students as that piece of wood went flying.

Actually it's been a while since I've made any projects... but when I paint or draw something, I first like it and then I find a point which I wanna make better and try to make it better, but it just gets ruined and I end up regretting the fact that I decided to edit it!😑 Anyways, Lots and lots of love from India 😊❤❤❤❤

One of my crafts that didn’t work well, was when I used a card board box and made cardboard panels, so that I could organize my pens, pencils, and markers. The thing is I don’t own hot glue, so I tried using tape. I was considering to paint it, which I’m glad I didn’t , because in the end it all crashed together, so there’s hardly any organization now…
