Four years later, still using that stand nightly for the same S0 Apple Watch. Bought a more compact stand for travelling.
Got a tip for us?

I don’t know if this counts as something you make yourself, but I’ll post it anyways.
I was looking for a good dock that had a single power cord and was able to do all of my items if need be. I didn’t like any of the options I found so I decided to build one instead. I based it around and Anker 5-port USB hub. It has 4 A and 1 C port. As for now it will dock my iPhone and Apple Watch in nightstand position. If need be I can charge my AirPods and iPad Pro if I would like to.
A couple of bags of random white and gray legos and some baseplates and I went to town. I made it portal themed since I already owned the mini figures.
A "sister sewing weekend" was on the calendar... as usual there was maybe a little more coffee breaking and gossip going on than actual sewing for awhile there. Took a "proof of concept" photo to document that we actually had good intentions and had even got some tools out like rulers, mini ironing board, a sewing machine etc... but we did finally buckle down and get some work done. The other photo is one of the little hotmats I made for someone's dinner table... I'm trying to get a leg up on Christmas gifts earlier this year and not leave so much to Halloween!
"Proof of concept" lol

Sunflower trivet
way cooler nicer looking then the one I made. but with my fumblness it would not last a day.
Thanks for the kind words. I actually redid some of it. I should post new pics.
I've been recycling some old Apple hardware. One of the latest is this Apple Airport lamp. I replaced the bulb with an LED unit so it wouldn't melt the whole thing.

No craft here, just 3 whipped together "Balconeys" for our two crowded cats to sit and view the world. 
BTW, the paint is just for primer. LOL a2

Cats!
Great!
I love your Xserve table. I've always wanted to build one, but they've been tough to find, and I think my wife would kill me.
This is recent only because it just came back from the long arm quilter. Pieced a scrap quilt for my sister a zillion years ago, finally got it to the quilter near end of last year. My sister picked it up Sunday, Angie did a great job on it, so happy my sister will finally get to use it. Pattern was called "Starry Ladders" or something like that, just all scrappy and fun, with a plain mottled backing that shows off the quilting. Used up a ton of scraps, I know that much. Got enough around to do another one by now, probably.
Perfect for some serious sofa snuggle time, although it was doubtless sized for a twin bed iirc. Anyway another item finally checked off the UnFinishedObject list at this feckless lazydaze studio. Onward! The list is long! Angie already has another one in hand, and there are more in the queue... I lose interest in large works once I get the piecing done, so Angie has become the obvious solution to that problem.

Wow! But what does it look like?! I can't imagine putting those together in some fashion inside a little case.
But I was never great at the equivalent of 3D jigsaw puzzles.
