2025 February Thing-A-Day Craftalong

2/4: No tidying today as of yet, though I may get a token amount in.

But I did go to Creative Happy Hour, where I finally managed to bind my new art journal…

…at which point I obviously needed to check out the makerspace’s alcohol ink kit to christen it (plus play on a couple of other surfaces).

The look on his/her face :joy:. So unrepentant. My cat lives to rip up paper. He’s an absolute fiend.

@Magpie Thankfully it was on a part that was getting trimmed anyway. But I hear the crunching and ran across the room.

@Tapestry Rabbit loves paper too! Her Christmas present this year was just a wrapped squishy thing so she could chomp on the tissue paper to her heart’s content.

lol, maybe! I have 3 mostly done now, and I’m down to the yarn leftover from other fish hats. I’ll have to try & be creative when combining them for more fish, but I think I can get a couple more:

I think any of those yarns together would look great, fish are very colourful.

2/5: A brief but productive tidy.

I also measured and cut a piece of kraft-tex for my new whatever journal. I might actually get that sucker bound this week.
