Popple tutorial

So it dawned on me I never posted my Popple tutorial video here! I was FINALLY able to get one recorded and uploaded after 5 different attempts! So without further ado here it is: http://youtu.be/vosGTDrAEx4

Popples!


I have paused the woodland creatures again because I was inspired to make popples! 





There are 9, I have made 7 of them. The last two I don't have dark pink (fuschia) bands to make them. The hunt for bands will be on this weekend! 

I have been trying to get a tutorial done for the popples but for whatever reason every video or time I try to do a tutorial something happens and it doesn't work out. Hopefully one of these days it works.  Lol.

Next up in the woodland creature series:

So I have created another woodland creature. 


He still needs some work. I need to make his mask stand out more. Once I do that, then I have a great idea! Which I am keeping to myself until I make it. ;0)

Today's Fun

So today I made a care bear:

And after I made him, I was inspired to make a pig:


After I made him, I made another with a different nose:


And then I decided to make a third one:



And if you have 3 little pigs, then you need a big bad wolf:



Here's the group: 


I think they turned out great!

Two tutorials are up!


Ok, well playing around, I made the Super Mario mushroom and then I attempted a Koopa, which resulted in an epic failure, but it did result in a very cute turtle. 

I posted it on a group I belong to, and a few asked if I had a tutorial for it, so I made one. I also made one for my Super Mario Mushroom. 



Check them out!

Woodland creatures got put on hold.

So my last post I talked about how I wanted to make a series of woodland creatures. Yeah, that got put on hold. I found a tutorial for a toadstool by Emily @ Loom Love and then from there I had the idea for a Mario mushroom. 


So I have been making them right and left (obviously). And this morning I finally complete a tutorial on them! 


We'll see if I get back to the woodland creatures, or see if I get distracted by something else.

Woodland creatures are becoming my favs

So not too long ago, I altered a design by Marloom Creations and made an adorable squirrel.



I love him! He turned out perfect. So did his tail, which was a complete accident. But hey, it worked!!!



So the other day I was sitting here and I thought a skunk would be cool to make, especially since they're similar is shape. So I gave it a try. 



So making these have got me thinking of doing more woodland creatures! A whole little cute family! 

I'll definitely keep you posted on my progress!

Made my own tutorial

Well after being asked quite a few times by a few different people I broke down and made my own tutorial for my Girl Scout cookie. It's not the best video but it's my first! It's a learning process for me. I'm sure I will get better in time.

Overnight Instagram Sensation

So, the video was posted and my Instagram handle was posted, I have over 100 new followers that I did not have before, granted a majority of it is 6-12 year old girls, but I am still flattered! I have now been asked by a few different people if I could start doing tutorials. Currently I don't really have the means to do it, although I think I am going to do an experimental video on my iPad and see how it turns out. I was told by a girl that I inspire her, which just made my heart melt. Yesterday morning when I checked the video MadebyMommy posted on YouTube had over 5000 views. And the video had only been up for 15 hours. I was impressed! 

I showed my daughter the video last night and she was super excited for her and her troop to get a shoutout. I made a panda bear yesterday and Saturday I made Red Fraggle. Both were liked on Instagram. 



Let's see what I can come up with next!

Excitement for me!

Ok, so I have been looming for about a month now. I have made a couple of things on my own, I have created a few bracelets, a few characters, and an animal. Last night I created a Girl Scout cookie. And it's become and internet sensation. Sharing it with a fellow loomer's page, a few people asked if I could make a tutorial. I don't really have the ability to do that, so I said my friend could do it if she wanted to. She passed it along to another friend of hers, who has a daughter that is a Girl Scout, and she has been talking to me and she is making a tutorial! My creation has become an internet sensation (in the loom world). I am BEYOND excited that something I made is so well liked!!!
