hobby crafts and great and everyone should get into a hobby craft, but I really really really really need people to do at least a little bit of research into what they’re interested in and learn important things such as that fact that polymer clay, air-dry clay, and resin are NOT food safe. yes that includes clay that’s been coated in a clear coat like mod podge (the dishwasher safe mod podge is not food safe)
the reason that some* ceramics are food safe is because glazes melt into essentially a thin layer of glass on the surface, and the clay is heated to a temperature that vitrifies it. and I say some because not all ceramics/glazes/firing temps are food safe, and that’s a whole other deep dive of research for people who get into ceramics. but the point is that most people can’t do that at home, so they look into non-ceramic materials and assume that’s a cheaper and easier way to make food-safe items, when really what’s going to happen is all these materials will leach into your food, especially with heat applied
also can resin creators wear proper PPE with gloves and respirator, I am begging you, that shit is toxic to touch and inhale

hollow knight chess set? i'd be astounded if i was the first to suggest this but its my blog and ill post what i want
pale king & white lady as king n queen obvi
vessels as pawns obvi
for the others, tho, theres a couple possibilities? it could be Monomon(as bishop) Lurien(as rook bc tower) and Herrah(as knight bc thats the sexiest one)
or it could be Quirrel(as knight) Cloth(as rook mayb?) and like. elderbug? as bishop?
ooh ooh ooh or it could be asymmetrical, with PK/WL/dreamers and masked vessels(as pawns) for the white side, then the other side is shade siblings for the pawns, and the shade lord and THK shade as the (genderless)king and queen, with like Hornet(knight) Quirrel(bishop) and... someone else? Hornet as a parallel to Herrah and Quirrel as a parallel to Monomon make sense, but idr if Lurien has a similar parallel. Lemm, perhaps? idk
Goth vampire doll! Inspired by Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines (tremere specifically 🤭) and goth styles from the 90s. Her glasses were a challenge to make but I think they turned out so well; they're made from red acetate and wire covered in black paint and slathered in resin
