Oho! Gigantic cross stitch on a jacket, this one with a handsome tiger face and some roses. Definite DIY potential here! Would be very labor-intensive to stitch your own version of the whole coat, but a large panel for the back should go faster, for instance to go on a jeans jacket. By unknown, found via Isabel Nardini on Pinterest.
Gorgeous DIY soap gems for the goblincore or bling-y bathroom of your dreams. Really easy – you start with ready-made soap and cut them down to the desired shape and size. (No actual soap-making involved – unless you want to, of course...) How-to at Mr. Printables.
Lovely little DIY project for some everyday bling: a polymer clay mermaid box by Natasha at The Artisan Life. (Just topping a ready-made box with scales, not starting from scratch, fortunately.)
Cool minimalistic Star Wars lightsaber posters by DCMJS on Etsy. Can't quite figure out if it's just random or if there's a reason for the different background colors, I'm not that attuned to the world. Anyone?
Nifty RPG dice barrette made from Scrabble tiles by Alexis Hejna at HoneysuckleRoseC on Etsy. I like the subtle rainbow theme, too. (Personally I'd prefer white instead of black, but to each their own.)
What an AMAZING leather quiver set! Turquoise and white isn't a very common color combo for larps or cosplay but, oh, does it look handsome when done right. By Iliana at MadeOfLeather on Etsy.
Two dragon heads make a heart. <3 <3 Resin pendant necklace by Aelia Petro at ArtByAelia on Etsy.
What an astounding house exterior – so vibrant, yet not tacky (or not too terribly so anyway). I appreciate this more than I like it (partly because of the color choices), but to each their own. By unknown; found via Jocelyn's Mountfield Dollhouse.
Happy Leap Day!
Leg warmers have been back for a bit, apparently. Don't these look a bit like dragon scale? They'd make a good DIY project, too. By Rowan, found via Megan Bailey.
Ahh! Turquoise plus copper isn't a super common color combo, but this wire-wrapped d12 pendant by Alexis Hejna is so pretty. Visit her shop at HoneysuckleRoseC on Etsy.

For a little more sea-themed elegance for your kitchen: DIY mermaid tail fridge magnets by Christine at The DIY Dreamer.
Ooh—DIY cement Pac-Man fridge magnets. Grown-up materials for grown-up crafts – and if someone comes to complain Pac-Man isn't for grown-ups, you can eff right off. (Although I'm sure you could make them from air-dry clay, too, or something, if you don't like concrete.) Tutorial by Naomi at Plaster & Disaster.
For Adventure Time fans: cute DIY Beemo paint job on your earbuds and phone charger. Cannot but smile! By unknown, found via Pinterest.
Toss a tile to your witcher... err, anyway. Neat Geralt and Yennefer chokers made from upcycled Scrabble tiles by Alexis Hejna at HoneysuckleRoseC on Etsy.
