Did some fun stuff called tufting on my birthday last week! I've been eyeing it for months and finally convinced myself to do it. Tufting is an art and craft activity that needs interest (obviously!), concentration, some physical strength, and most importantly, patience! The tufting gun weighs around 1.5kg, and I used 2h20m to complete this piece. So imagine holding the gun in the air for that long. I actually had a mild muscle sore on my right chest and arms the next day. 😂 Although the final outcome didn't turn out as what I expected it to be (in fact, very far difference 😂), I'm content with what I created and able to enjoy and appreciate this tuft piece as it is, after settling the disappointment in my heart. Haha, after all, it's my first tuft tote bag! 🌻 Proud that I pushed myself to respond to (and spend on) my wants, especially when this is more of a leisure activity than a "necessity". It's okay to have fun sometimes! 😊

done be sad, its your first time , you learn something , you will excel somehow there are plenty of room for a determined person like you, in fact its still beautiful even its your first time :) muscle sores will only appear at first but when your muscles are used to the weight of the gun, its just piece of cake for you .
Thanks for the encouragement @Erickmontajes! 🙌😊

We only live life once. And only young and energetic once. So if have the means and ability, really try out some fun stuffs as long as it is not harmful to your wellbeing. Anything art and craft is great. You know Your maker spent so much time to craft the beautiful you.
So simple yet so much wisdom in those 5 sentences. Got to take time to chew on each of them. Thank you Ps Jade ❤️
I haven't tried this kind of art. We're not that familiar here. Your work turned out well. It looks cute for a bag design.
Yeah tufting is a type of new art and craft activity that I've discovered lately too. Hope you get to try it one day, since you too like to do art :) And thanks for your compliment Kris. :)
