Hello Subbies, Well, my challenge is not going so well. Thus far I have only been able to make eight types of ornaments. I have made two of each ornament but still only eight types. Completed just needs paint: Kirby – fighter Kirby – Link from Zelda King Boo from Super Mario Bob-Bomb from Super Mario Minnie Mouse Mickey Mouse […]
Hello Subbies, I had to stop crafting ornaments for a little bit. It seems I forgot that polymer clay dries my hands something terrible. I have so many Bandages on my hands I look like a burn victim. I am going to try to work through this problem and start working on my next bulb which is Mega-Man. Now it’s […]
Hello Subbies, Today I am going back to Pokémon. Which pocket monster am I tossing at you today? Well, it’s that sleeping giant the Snorlax. Now the photo you see below is one I made last year for a customer. I used a smaller blub that had a sliver ting to it. So I want to see how much better […]
Hello Subbies, Well, it’s day seven of creating ornaments for Etsy. If you haven’t guessed it from the photos below, I am making Kirby Link from the Super Mario Smash Bros video game. Now, this is not the final product, I still need to sew the details on Kirby Link’s hat. I still need to glue the sword together and […]
Hello Subbies, Tonight I had to frost some more bulbs with gesso. It seems at two bulbs a night for four nights it would equal eight ornaments completed. Honestly, it doesn’t seem like a lot when I count them by two’s but believe me it feels like a lot. So in order to have more products I need to frost […]
Well, it has been a long time… I see from my last post I hadn’t done anything since July 24, 2013. Wow, I tell you, time flies when you have a baby. My little baby girl was born on October 23 and was a healthy 6 lb 6 oz. Now she is a chunky 12 lb 10 0z, it’s that […]
Hello All, Well Valentine’s Day is coming around again and I guess some one could consider the card below a Valentine’s Day Card. However since my birthday lands on February 14th I really don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day for a few reasons. Here is Monica’s Top 5 Reason why I don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day: It’s my birthday not Valentine’s Day. Card […]
Hello All, Well we are getting ever closer to Christmas and I keep thinking about snow. Since it really doesn’t snow in California unless you drive to some snowy forsaken mountain that has more rock then snow, it really doesn’t really count. So to cheer me up I made myself a little snow globe card. I’m sure some of you […]
Hello All, This is not a new idea of course; we all learn how to make 3D snowflakes in grade school with construction paper and glue. Nevertheless, just because we learn something as children doesn’t mean we shouldn’t bring out the kids in use. So I dug out my inner kid and pulled out this lovely idea and added my […]
Hello All, Need a quick idea? Why not DIY yourself some etched glass containers. I found these cute glass containers at Ross a few weeks ago and thought they make great socking stuffers for family and friends. All you really need is some contact paper (the same stuff you line your kitchen cabinets) cut out some attractive patterns stick them on […]
