Hey everyone! I just came across this gorgeous piece by maker Edy_The Juelrye Doll and had to share.
It's a one-of-a-kind, lathe-turned natural edge mushroom crafted from juniper wood, complete with lovely botanical details. At 4 inches by 4 inches, it looks like the perfect woodland accent for a shelf, desk, or mantel. Plus, it's handmade right here in California!

Paper, thread, and a world of color. ð§µâš
Japanese artist @jtmm37 began paper embroidery in November 2020.
After facing significant health challenges and physical limitations, she started looking for something she could enjoy and create at home. That search led her to paper embroidery.
She says she was drawn into its beautiful world, and creating these pieces gave her an unexpected sense of confidence â a feeling that she, too, could remain connected to something beautiful.
Interestingly, sewing used to be something she wasnât very good at. But she has always loved coloring, and paper embroidery came to feel almost like coloring with thread. That may be one reason the craft felt so natural to her.
Today, she creates paper embroidery and works combining paper with botanical elements, carefully building each piece with thread, texture, color, and small details. ð
Even the name jtmm carries a personal story. It comes from the way her daughter pronounced her own full name when she was very young: âãã£ããã.â
âjtâ represents jittan, while âmmâ represents mama â giving the name the meaning of âJittanâs mom.â
What began as something she could do at home has grown into a creative practice she loves, as well as a source of new connections with others.
At Peppaca, we love discovering the stories behind handmade work â not only what someone creates, but also what creating can bring into a personâs life.
Have you ever found a craft or creative activity that brought something unexpected into your life?

I am so proud to feature this stunning Freshwater Pearl and Blue Flower piece from one of the talented creators in our community.
What I love about this piece is the juxtapositionâthe organic, irregular beauty of the pearls paired with the delicate precision of the blue flower. Itâs a perfect example of the kind of craftsmanship we celebrate here on Peppaca. When you wear this, you arenât just wearing jewelry; youâre supporting a real personâs vision and skill.

Hi everyone! ððœ Iâm Cielo, the maker behind WovenbyCielo.
I create original crochet designs, from amigurumi and character-inspired pieces to handmade bags and custom creations.
One of my recent makes is this crochet character bag. I love turning simple yarn into something with personality, especially when I can design the details from scratch.
Iâm excited to be here, meet other makers, and see what everyone is creating. Thereâs something really special about seeing the skill and creativity that goes into handmade work.
Hereâs to sharing what my hands have made!
Today weâre bringing one of our Instagram collaboration posts into the Peppaca Forum conversation.
Kukka Tanssi, meaning âflower dance,â creates handmade rugs using the tufting technique â almost like painting with yarn.
Each piece feels like a small story brought into everyday life. The artist hopes that the place where the rug is placed can become a little more special for the person who welcomes it.
In our Instagram collaboration post, we shared one of Kukka Tanssiâs small tufted fox pieces.
It is a quiet work with a story-like feeling â the kind of piece that makes you want to imagine what is happening just beyond the frame.

And to everyone in the community â what kind of story do you imagine when you see this work?
