I had a chance to get to my craft table for a bit, decided to make something I know how to do well :))) All new items are now in my shop

Another face

I think I finally made I face I want to make a body for. I was making this face probably for a couple of weeks, adding clay, removing clay. The eyes still need pupils. I made the eyes from white Fimo. Here is a good tutorial for the handmade glass-like eyes. I haven't finished them though, I was too impatient to use them for my face, that I decided that these eye will do for now.
I think this doll will have a red hair :))

New face

Here is a new face I tried to make. No ears yet, my enthusiam has ran out before making ears, when I just baked the head as it is :)) The clay is dirty, as it is just a head for exercise :))






Next to previous face.

Sculpting faces

I am slowly getting back to clay, stretching my fingers and scratching the right side of my brain head. After I put little Ross to sleep I sacrifice a couple of hour of my own sleep to clay.
I am not interested in making jewellery at the moment, have no inspiration for jewellery making whatsoever. So I decided to try myself in something else - in doll-making. Made a couple of faces so far :)) The first face was a bit of a Martian looking




Second face I made yesterday was a little better, I think :))





With my speed I will probably make a doll by the end of the year :))

Clay leftovers and cutters

Like probably all of us, I have loads of clay leftovers, cane ends, dirty clay pieces, etc.

I separated all my leftovers into groups of different colours, and mixed every group into one colour. I ended up with a lovely collection of muted colours:


Also I had a great number of various little cutters, most of which I never used:


The muted tones of clay leftovers reminded me of retro floral patterns, so after combining my beautiful clay leftovers and those tiny cutters here what came out:

Multicolour necklace:

If you didn't like the patterns of the beads, you can wear a necklace from a wrong side:))


Bright patterns of black background:


A few pendants in retro style :)


And just red and white beads

That is it for now :))

Flowers!

While visiting us, my mother taught me how to find a little time for hobbies with a baby in the house :))
So here what I created so far, using my new and old flower canes:

Pink beads and white agate


Lilac beads


Red


Black and white beads and snowflake obsidian


Black and white pendant and black agate beads


Inside the polymer clay beads I've put some Sculpey Ultra light to make polymer beads a bit lighter :)
