Tiny Sculpted Fairy

Well I have been gathering sculpting books and dvd"s on sculpting "tiny" fairies and babies. I have just been reading and watching...and i finally got the nerve to try and work this tiny!!!

So this is my first "whole" body...which i never really wanted to do...because I dont like statues...but working tiny caught my interest...and I really loved doing it...to me...the face is way harder than the body! I thought it was going to be the opposite way around, so I was pleasantly surprised!

This fairy is about 2 inches...and not wanting to break tradition..her name is "Pink Thumbellina"

Her Wings are Free motioned with shimmery thread on a piece of organza over very pretty paper. I hit them with a heat gun to shrink and shape them a bit...then i rubbed Dorlands "WAX" on the edges to mute them a bit..and heated again. I made a purple pair of wings, but of course...the Pink looked better!) Her crown is clay...with tiny vintage diamonds...(the diamonds are on her outfit also)

I want to keep practicing this ...I think i really like doing the bodies..........

New Organizer!! ugh!

Well, I was in A.C. Moore trying to "Spend" my 50% coupon...and nothing was hitting me...i kind of have everything there!! hmmm.....Anyway..i decided to "cover " the whole store just in case...the cash was hot in my hand...I just needed to buy a "Craft" item! I turn down the BAKING isle...and there it was...it had a golden "aura" around it...and i swore i heard music playing...

I was a Wilton storage doohicky for baking..but i saw "clay" storage!!! man...this thing was cool, it was 59.99....with a coupon it was 30.00...WOW. As I sat on the floor pulling all of the drawers out...people were coming up up me... (with their 50% coupon in hand...) What is that? where'd you get it? ugh ...it was the only one ...I suggested to this one scarey lady...to go ask if they had more in the back....then i ran to the register and bought it! Check it out...I LOVE it!!!
