I've been Impersonated!!

I'd never thought this would happen to me, but I was impersonated on Youtube a couple days ago. Someone created a fake channel exactly like mine and made the username look like mine (crafterzdelights) by changing the letter L to a capitalized "i". I've seen this happen to other you tubers, but never imagined it would happen to me. This stuff only happens to famous you tubers! So of course when I first found out the existence of a poser and the fact this person has been putting rude comments on other people's channel made me so angry! I'm just baffled that someone would take the time to do such thing! This person has no life and he/she probably has some kind of self esteem or psychological issues. I already sent a request to Youtube to get rid of the fake channel, so I hope they'll do it soon.

Anyway, I thought this was an interesting experience so I thought I'd share it here! lol! I'm glad all my subscribers have been supportive of me! Thank you so much!

I'm going to end this post with this quote. "Haters only hate the people they cant have or the people they can't be"

"You Learn"

You Learn
by Jorge Luis Borges

After a while you learn the subtle difference
Between holding a hand and chaining a soul,

And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning
And company doesn't mean security.

And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts
And presents aren't promises,

And you begin to accept your defeats
With your head up and your eyes open
With the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child,

And you learn to build all your roads on today
Because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans
And futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight.

After a while you learn...
That even sunshine burns if you get too much.

So you plant your garden and decorate your own soul,
Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.

And you learn that you really can endure...

That you really are strong

And you really do have worth...

And you learn and learn...

With every good-bye you learn.

How to Make Resin Mirror Charms

These are super adorable resin charms with mirrors on the back! It was an idea that randomly came to me while I was working on other resin pieces. I did a few experiments and they worked very well, so I wanted to share the method with everyone. If you know how to work with resin, this is very simple to make!

Here is a video tutorial on it! Enjoy!

Nightmare Before Christmas Tile

I love Nightmare Before Christmas! I've always loved it, ever since it first came out of the movie theater. I remember at the time, no one cared for the movie, but not until Disney bought it, the popularity skyrocketed!

I made a resin tile inspired by the movie and also this tile is part of my contest entry I'm planning to enter. I hand painted the image in layers to give a 3d effect. It's really hard to see in the photo, but it looks pretty cool in person! This piece was very difficult to make too since I had to redo the coating several times! I'm happy i was able to finish it because I had moments of wanting to give up! I hope you guys like it!

Finished Fawn!

Here is my finished crochet Fawn by Pepika! I made it for my little sister because today is her birthday! Yay! She is 21 and all grown up!

Anyway, I crammed last night finish making this and I finished around 1 am in the morning. I spent countless hours and I struggled a lot. I usually struggle with a new pattern, so there were times where I almost wanted to give up! But overall I think it turned out pretty good and most importantly, my baby sister LOVED it! So mission accomplished!!
