A Fairy

A fairy I made for a fairy swap.

She is polymer clay with a wire armature under so she's poseable. I curled and attached mohair for her hair. Her eyes are green+gold glass paint and she's shimmery but you can't tell from the pictures. Her dress is made of lace, ribbon, and a fake flower, and her sweater is crocheted from green yarn.

I always wanted to try making something like this and I'm glad I got the chance to do so.













Hope you enjoyed!

Some Crafts

Hello again!

Last week, I randomly made some paper rings from some old books I have lying around just for crafts. I layers strips of paper in a ring shape around my finger and I glued a cool sentence around it. I then varished the top so that it would be sturdy and waterproof to an extent.



Fun, right? I made a good few of them for fun.
Remember the last post when I said "set a whole bunch of things in motion so that I could be creative"? One of those things was this great book called Wreck This Journal by Keri Smith. It's really awesome, it's a book/journal with ways of wrecking the journal in a creative way. Check out this flickr group for some examples!


This is one of the pages from mine.

I took the pressed foliage and randomly decided to make little fairies!







Well, that's it for now! :)

Monster Hugs

I made a gigantic monster for my sculpture class. There's an actually messages and stuff behind it, but I'm sure you'll be ok with just the pictures.
