I recently saw a woman online (Grace.of.Spades on TikTok) who has made so many of these giant candy pieces for her porch for Halloween and I wanted to give it a shot!… now i cant stop 😆

It’s even funnier because we live in a spot where only two neighbors would ever SEE our porch, let alone a spot where we get trick or treaters, so it’s just for the love of the craft game😂🧡
happy spooky season!!🎃👻

Just a fun random mini moment for my personal laundry room. These are so fun! And you truly realize how random things in your house can be utilized to make something creative! 🧵🧶

Happy Thursday!!

I have not been able to post on marketplace through this page yet, still jumping through meta hoops!😂 so for now, I have listed some of my tapestries on my personal page’s marketplace. (Skylar Thompson)

Thank you to everyone who has followed me along so far!! Have the best day!❤️🍄🍁🐶

Artimus helped in selecting the perfect piece for this yarn tapestry. He loves going out and helping me find the best ones! “Mouth selected” if you will😂 he is not a fan of me taking the bark off, but he lingers anyway🥹

Have a great Wednesday!! I hope everyone finds something to create today:)

Hi!! I decided to dedicate a page to my handmade crafts and I wanted to introduce myself and show some of my creations!

🧚‍♀️My name is Skylar, I am 25! My fiancé (also named Skylar) and I recently bought a home outside of the quad cities! I have a deep love for crafting and creating, so I have created a very small business based out of Lynn Center, IL called Arty’s Oddities, named after our two year old blue heeler, Artimus!

🐶Arty has a special spot anywhere I am and loves to bask in the sun and keep me company while I craft! I spend a lot of time creating random decor and trinkets, I have a lot of fun doing it too! I love to gift things I have made to friends and family, but I wanted to offer others to have kooky, fun things in their spaces as well!

🍄I am constantly finding new things I want to make, I often deep dive and get everything needed (and then some) for a new craft, so I hope you follow me along my crafting journey and that I can make people smile and feel a personal touch in their lives!

For now, I am going to start by listing items for sale on Facebook marketplace from this page. I can meet up locally and I am open to discuss shipping if needed!

Arty and I are so excited to spread our love for creating, crafting, sun basking, and constantly learning with others! 🥰🐶
