I haven't had much time to make things but here are a few of my projects Ive completed

Strawberry fairy house

Angel Praying by pond

Owl in the moon, the moon is made from glow in the dark clay so you get a nice silhouette of the owl

Beautiful work

Very nice, I love the vase

the trick to having scented polymer clay is to mix the scent with the glaze. I would recommend a very strong scent, clear in color.

1. bake your clay creations let them cool completely

2. pour a small amount of  sculpey gloss/glaze into a small container (I use little dixie cups) add a drop or two of your scent and mix it together

don't mix in to much scent or glaze will just be a sticky mess.

3. add a thin layer of this glaze mix to your creations, let it dry and add another layer etc...until you have a nice shiny smelly good creation.

Thanks so much, I have an orange and cherry houses too, I just haven't had time to take the pics but I will soon.  Its really not as hard as it looks and is so fun.

My must haves... white, black, trans, brown, yellow, green, blue and orange I do a lot of color blending unless its a really particular color im needing.

My tool must haves... pasta machine, small hand roller, exacto knife/ long blade and basic shape cutters, circles, square etc for texture I use whatever I can find or that looks interesting, I use netting from old bath scrubbies, believe me it makes great scales for fish or reptiles, tooth picks for small detailing, I'll use just about anything to get a different interesting texture.

A few of my clay fairy houses, they all have glow in the dark windows

I haven't posted in awhile but this is what Ive been working on lately.

the only other thing I can think of is if you got the larger organza bags and a spider web stamp, since its October im sure you can find them pretty cheap and stamp the bags any color spider web you wanted

There are some white organza bags with spider web design on them, Im sure if you google you can find them, those spiders are beautiful

I started saving my kcups from my coffee maker, they make great little cups for crafting, cut out some paper ears and get googly eyes and they can turn them into anything, also they make great little cups for planting a seed.

super cute, I love the little mushroom!! Now I know what to make with all my scrap polymer clay and make a woodland scene terrarium

its usually the first and last stitch that makes things slope, what i do is count my stitches after about 5 rows to make sure i still have the same amount, and put a stitch marker after every 5 rows that have the correct amount of stitches, that way if ive added an extra stitch or didnt add enough i dont have to pull everything apart and start over again.

What Ive worked on recently

Blue/Green Peacock Brooch

Phoenix Brooch

Kitten Focal Beads

Gray Lion Head Focal Bead

Thats really neat, would be perfect for kids to take to school you can wipe the germs off easy LOL

too cute!! I just got a sewing machine and i suck at sewing but i keep trying LOL

Thanks all, ive been doing alot of dragons lately, I'll have to gather them up and take some pics

A glass bowl with different frogs and leaves all around it, i figured i can fill the bottom with sand and put a candle in it.

Baby Dragons sleeping in bottle caps

Little Fairies on a mirror i have a glass tealight that sits perfectly on the mirror

Little Sock Kids, made from dollar store socks, my niece loved these!

I thought I would share this, its just the coolest thing and so cute for any room

Im sure instead of a wooden tray you can use big wooden craft circles and do all different sizes with maybe a childs name on them or even decoupage them

great job! I did the same thing but mounted mine to 3 canvases that i painted and sprayed with gold webbing then mounted to the wall side by side and then did 3d origami flowers that look like they are falling from the canvas

there are houses on this page, they look nice could be easily turned into a church and the price is really good

Michaels has them, i believe hobby lobby has some also I dont know if they have churches but they do have the houses, you could always convert into a church if you cant find one

I made little fairies out of clay with a flower, this one is a lazy susan flower, the little fairy is sitting on some rocks and she is glued to a painted base with moss and other flowers. Her little home is a wine glass from the dollar store and a glass tealight holder also from the dollar store, the tealight holder is attached with a glue dot so you can remove it and put something else up there if you want.

sculpey premo is my choice of clay, but sculpey III is very good too, i use it alot, http://www.polymerclaysuperstore.com is having a sale on fall colors right now until oct 4 and you also get a coupon if you sign up for the news letter

thanks! i love making the little faes
