Welcome!

This is a community for any and all art and crafting enthusiasts, no matter whether you're knitting, sewing, painting, photographing, sculpting, woodworking, glassblowing, or anything else that ends up with a finished piece of art at the end.

You can show off your own creations, recommend resources, patterns and instructions, ask for help, discuss techniques and materials, or show us your inspirations - there's room for all of it! For ease of navigating, please flair your posts accordingly.

Our Rules:

Please be kind to each other. This is an open and beginner-friendly community, so if you give criticism, be constructive, and keep your comments about the art.

Slurs of any kind are not tolerated.

When posting your own works, please include the medium or material in the title and use it as an opportunity to describe your work. All posts of things you did not make yourself need to be credited to the best of your abilities.

Don't repost material others have posted here or elsewhere on Ovarit, and please try to avoid duplicate posts.

If you want to promote your own or someone else's items for sale, the stickied thread is the place to do it. We love celebrating and supporting women creators, so link your favorites!

The Sitewide Rules and Sitewide Guidelines are in effect here.

  • Inspo - inspiration and things you find cool!
  • Pro tip - FYI and advice
  • WIP - work in progress!
  • Stash - The items you use for crafting!
  • Silly - anything silly or funny regarding crafting
  • Question - questions regarding crafting
  • Resource - a resource that you would like to share with others

How would people feel about including discussions of writing - fanfic, original fic, poetry, journalism, etc... - here?

Late reply, but I would love to meet others fanfic writers here! Fandom has been absolutely captured by TRA madness, it would be nice to talk to other writers who don't subscribe to it.
