My step sister is part Hawaiian so for her baby shower I designed and made Hawaiian alphabet blocks!! 😍😍

I shared my prototype a couple weeks ago, finished the finally design and printed for my daughter! It’s perfect and takes so much less space than the boxes did! I’m so happy with how it came out. So fun to see it all come together from just an idea!

Lots of people inquired about my selling it before. I listed it both physical and digital. Happy to share the links if interested 🤗🤗

So I designed this car freshener holder for my laser cutter (striped) realized that I could make it easily in 3d for printing and could make it smaller too. First attempt (og big size purple) the clip broke and stupidly trusted bambu and it printed face down filled with supports I could barely get outcome. Second attempt I stood it up, less supports but turned to spaghetti half way through. Third attempt on the cool plate, worked great but the clip decided not to print right? So weird. Idk, I just broke it off and I can glue a metal clip I had from the laser ones to the back. (Purple) The big win though was I also adapted it to the skadis, figured i could freshen up my craft space since it’s in a garage 🤣🤣. It printed beautifully and doesn’t take much time or filament. (Teal) it’s cool to realize I was kind of already designing in 3d sorta and how easy it is for me to recreate the stuff I already designed for 3d printing!

Wanted a way to organize the tonieplay games so I made one!! I’m proud of myself, it’s my first 3d print model.

I never “start slow” with things lol. When k got my cricut my first project was an entire sheet of labels for jars. For my first 3d model design. I wanted a way to organize my daughter’s tonieplay games for her toniebox. Having not designed in 3d before I started where I knew, in illustrator. Designed it in 2d all the dimensions and angles then went to tickercad. Ended up bringing in my SVG for most of it. At first I thought I bit off more than I could chew but fumbled my way through. Gotta reprint the base but overall it’s perfect!

This is my second thing I have designed from scratch! (The first was ambitious and needs some tweaking) but this one was easy and exactly what I needed for my ikea skadis boards to hold this little measuring tape! It’s so cool to go from idea to made. Never really done 3d design before so it’s a whole new thing for me. 🤗
