Experiment in progress...

I've been playing around with the idea of using paper clay for some time. I finally got my hands on some on my once a year trip to the far off Hobby Lobby. I recently joined a great group Creating the hive and all of my most admired artists are there and guess what? They answer questions and share techniques! I am in creative heaven! You can check out my profile here. http://creatingthehive.com/sassypackrat

Anyhoo getting answers to my questions helped me gain enough confidence to try paper clay to make a face on a soft bodied doll. I had so much fun! I haven't sculpted since high school and did better than I thought I would. She needs more work and a lot of sanding and is more prim than I've ever done before but I'm going to finish her. My creative juices are flowing again! And yes I FINALLY used the sewing machine! It still hates me so I'll probably end up hand sewing the arms and legs but I did the body successfully!

I still have 2 bald and limbless witches to finish so will be blogging more WIPs than I have recently plus Christmas things are on the verge of exploding out of me so get ready! Have you tried something new and different recently? Tell me about it.

Craft Store Finds

I finally got to the craft store yesterday to get a few buttons for my plush dolls and almost everything was on a holiday sale. I went nuts loading up a cart until my voice of reason said "And how do you plan to pay for all of this?!" Sadly I put most of it back but I couldn't resist the 60% off Halloween fabric, and really who could? I may have to do Halloween all year round, lol!
