Pros and Cons of Fabric Tumblers

Image
With every craft there are pros and cons with the project.  I really enjoy playing around with new methods of spicing up tumblers.  Glitter and paint is fun but it doesn't give you a consistent finished project.  I can start with it in straight lines and by the time the epoxy has hardened it has mixed and mingled into something completely different.  Check out my Instagram  page for beginning and ending shots. Pros: You can pick whatever you like in color and get an interesting tumbler.  There is no way that I could make this tumbler with glitter, paint, and vinyl.   Even with layering I wouldn't be able to get these colors and patterns.  If there is an obscure design or fandom you like and can find fabric for it you can make yourself a tumbler that won't necessarily cost you $45.  You can still add vinyl to the project if you want something a little more than just the fabric.  Cons: You have to use a straight tumbler that has no cu...

Reluctantly Crafting with My Sisters by Virginia

I am a Starbucks cup junky. I probably have about a dozen in different sizes, shapes, and designs. The one problem with this addiction is the cost!  20 dollars for a cup that I may love but is definitely not personalized can get pricey. And the way I can go through these cups make it worse. Well Vicki started to make her own tumblers. The beauty of it...personalization!!!  You can pick an fabric, a vinyl, even just a color. You can pick spray paint, alcohol, or glitter. Sooo many choices. And guess what?!  It is not nearly as expensive.  Granted I don't have to pay for everything involved in making it, but still. So, when I was looking for speakers for the Sewing Summit and Vicki was planning on visiting. I may have encouraged (aka: pulled the think of the opportunities card) and asked Vicki to do a class. Of course she took the opportunity to have me included.  Vicki has sent videos of her creations via text (we live a few states away) but I have never seen the...

New Crafts, New Blog, New Troubles

My life took a turn in January where I quit a job with plans to start a new one after some downtime.  I wanted to take some time that I hadn't been taking and go back to doing things that made me happy.  One of the big things was crafting.  My life had been stressful and I hadn't been doing something that I loved.  With more free time I wanted to try out all sorts of new crafts.  With the world closed I've been able to perfect new crafts.  I figured at most my new crafting projects would just be something I would pawn off on family.  I ended up loving making custom tumblers and have been branching out from just glitter to fabric and paint.  There is only so many people in my life I can pawn stuff off on before the price of the craft is too much and it would probably be wise to sell the finished product.  In comes my sisters asking me to demo a fabric tumbler for an event for their employer.  With this demonstration comes having a new blo...
