Absolutely love this gingerbread house mug from Target — super fun to have around during the holidays. Felt inspired to draw it and then to try out gif-making in Procreate.

Lost my old website domain due to an error by Domain.com (maybe don’t use them), so I had to pick something new after 10 years! For now: scratchpadproject.com.
Really looking forward to tackling an update/revamp of old site, but here is the first #scratchIllo. Stuff on the #scratchpad is just for fun!

bed
Had to get a new mattress and decided to go with a natural latex version from Sleep E-Z. Latex requires a slat platform base, so I could either buy a new bed frame or make my own. Decided to make my own!
My grandpa let me use his workshop back in my hometown which was so great. I loved working in his shop. My design was based on a super simple platform bed plan, but I updated it with more advanced extra options and the ability to easily remove the slats and take the frame apart. This was my first big carpentry project done almost entirely on my own and I learned so much! It was totally worth DIY’ing.
Had to get the thing back home for the mattress before finishing the headboard, though, so that’s TBD. I know I want it to slant backward a bit, though.
rainbow trellises mock-up
Went to Procreate to mock up a garden trellis idea. A few hours later, I came out with this illustration. Maybe the real deal would look as fun. 😀
If I make them, planning to use found wood for the cross-bars, 1x1 for the uprights, and milk paint samples from The Real Milk Paint + tung oil for coating. They’d be in a single row, so the bars of each would criss-cross when seen head-on which might look neat.

Attempting to sketch more. Some days I spend a lot of time and others I just do something quick. Here’s a couple of fruit people and some sprrrring rolllsss:
