I have said it before and I'll say it :YOU HAVE THE PATIENCE OF A SAINT. I would've ragequit at the first lamp. I put together this like super mini lego ish thing that my friend got me for Christmas of a crocodile (I love crocodilians), and it took me 1.5 hours and the instructions were so hard to follow that I nearly DIED from frustration. I finished it under duress.

When masking for fine detail like the early steps, use a bit of varnish first after putting the tape down and let it dry before painting it. The varnish seals any of the slight gaps that paint can get through

💡💡💡Persistence over perfection. I definitely needed to learn that. I live with a chronic illness & spent the holidays in the hospital. Coming home & restarting my life yet again feels so daunting, especially as New Year's & my 44th birthday approach. Thanks for sharing your process. I definitely needed to see your persistency. My greatest flaw is I want things to be perfect so badly that I freeze & do nothing. I think it's time to retire the motto. "If you can't do it right, don't do it at all." I wish you all the best in 2025. Happy New Ye ar's Eve

When mixing lighter colors, it’s best to start with white and then add drops of color. That way you don’t use so much white. Likewise, add drops of black to darken the color. Remember, wonky IS whimsy, perfection is overrated, and figuring it out is the best part of the process. It looks so cute because you did it your way.

I’d love to see you do intuitive/thoughtless art!! I used to be the same as you - perfectionist beyond all logic. But I’ve been in art therapy now for about 5 years and I have been able to push through that toxic mindset and actually just ENJOY creating for the sake of its self. I think an art exercise that is simply for the sake of creating and not a final product could be immensely powerful for you. Then you can feel like you are a perfectionist when you WANT to be and just enjoy the process and not negative self talk or require it do be redone because it’s not perfect to you. Gives the power of perfection back to the person instead of perfectionism controlling me.

You have to really stare at those teeny instructions, lol. But I am encouraged that you tackled that electrical bit. 🙂 Anyway, the customization is looking really cute so far. I'll be surprised if you manage to finish it in a second part, instead of making it a 3 part series; I hope you're able to have fun with it, and that it doesn't become a chore. 🙃

I've got 4 New black pens too, so far this holiday I have completed 21 of 20 minute sketches of Lions, Tigers, Giraffes, Kangaroo & Sleeping too.

@RoseRequinCrafts Hi Rose it's been since the 12th of December & it's been SO FUN ! I got 24 Twistables Crayons & Coloured Pencils from Crayola, I want to know what the Fuss is about Bad Mouthing Crayola. I forgot that I got them for Christmas & received them later in the Day. I felt Crap for a few seconds as I received only 2 gifts, but I found my others since my Sister moved them. I'm not sure what I want to put in my 3 New Sketchbooks , but I'll work it out. I'll be working on my DRAWINGS of Mugs & Glasses with Dessert in them, I might do some as Felt Badges Next Year. Though whether I need to work on What Will be my popular make next Year, I have 15 done so far. Well Drawn onto Felt that is, I'm very tempted to put my Popular Mini Bear inside my Felt Mug or Put a Penguin inside it instead, though I'm not sure That I should SINCE that is a ready a Design in someone's Advent Calendar Colouring Book.

Both the piece that I cut and the piece that I added it to were the same length. So lets say each piece was 10 units long. I cut 2 off one piece making it 8 units and glued it to the other making that one 12 units. Didn't know you'd be doing math on a Sunday, did ya? 🤣
