Day 4 of white stuff

It is mostly ice covering snow down here in the southern United States of Georgia, I have been sitting inside watching motorists try and climb up the huge hill outside my house that is frozen solid. Some make it up either with 4 wheel drives or if they are brave enough to get a running start and go really fast slipping and sliding they might make it up. Most others are like me , just sitting at home, glad to be warm and safe inside. I did not get many photos cause it was sleeting when I tried and I was afraid I would ruin my camera, then later it got really slick, so again I could fall and hurt my camera or worse hurt me :)
Stay tuned for photos of my latest baby, she is made and waiting on clothes and photos. Maybe I can get that done today since I am stuck at home. And watch for the OWOH event coming soon, for details click on the link on an earlier post or the logo in the sidebar to find out more

Snow day in the southern states

We have 8 inches of snow today, that is unusual for way down here in Georgia. It is still dark outside , I will get photos when it is daylight. A good day to stay inside and sculpt.

I need a name

I have been fiddling with this little girl for a while now, she is a long way from perfect but she is at the point that she makes me smile so I am calling her finished and will start a new one and try and do better on it. I found an old wig I had made for a different doll and it looks cute on her I think, kind of like a wild child LOL, anyway I am wanting name suggestions for her.

cold outside makes for good day to clay

The temps are frigid way down here in the southeastern United States, with the icy winds and cold hard ground its hard to get outside and do the Christmas shopping that most of us have to do this time of year. I am almost done with mine, just a few more gifts to buy and a few more to wrap up.
Now I have decided its a great time to start a new clay project, another baby.
I recently participated in an ornament swap with friends from one of my clay groups and it was great fun just to let our imaginations run wild and make something for our partners. That is another great thing about being involved in Polymer clay, not only do you have fun making things and letting your muse have rein to bring them to be. You also meet some of the greatest people that also share a love of art and a love of polymer clay as a medium.
Stay warm and stay tuned for pictures of the baby hopefully in a few days

baby Drake

Hi I am going to stick a photo of my latest baby in here with the travel photos I have been sharing with you all. I think this one is a boy and the photos were not taken in very good light , I had to take them using a light since it was late and there was no natural light left handy, Anyway you can get an idea of how he looks, I still need to do some things to him like make him some booties and get more daylight photos to better show his coloring. He is cute but I still find myself picking out flaws in him. I guess this is the artist in us that makes us strive for improvement with each piece we create. Thanks for looking
