The Word on the Street

S

Sesame Street that is.... So my daughters big birthday present was this, a Sesame Street playhouse I bought off ebay and all these little figures.23 in all that I painted, sculpted, added hair to.  They were super fun to make and my now 2 yr. old really seems to like them.

can you tell me how to get to Sesame Street

Needle felted wool, I shall be making quite a few of the characters from Sesame Street.  I bought my daughter the 1974 Sesame Street Little People playset off ebay.  It didn't have anybody or anything with it so I'm making my own.

I love fall

So much so I make random pumpkin hats for babies I don't know.  Knit Picks Dk Swish, dyed with orange kool aid.  For my mom's friends sister-in-laws baby.

I just realized I never ever posted the completed Mascot. Here he is. The title of the post is what they named the mascot. 

two blogs in one

I combined this blog with my knit/crochet blog. I'm not prolific by any means not in art not in knitting or crocheting. By combining the two I hope to be able to post completed (or maybe just works-in-progress) more often.

wow, another post in less than 6 months!

More polymer clay, the main part of the figure has been done for uh a couple years, I finally added arms, 'clothes' and hair. The dragonfly was picked up at a garage sale and I believe was a candle votive. I glued in a piece of silk stuffed with batting. I might try to do a different fairy for it though.

Try not to drop dead from shock., I'm actually posting

So after a really long hiatus. I'm back. Hi. So way back last year.... I promised a friend a birthday present for her birthday in October.(Wave at Crista!). Now that her birthday is almost here again, and Renaissance Faire time is upon us. I uh finally got it done. Hee Hee. Polymer clay & beads.

My grand plan for 2010

I thought I start this new year off right. I'm going to try to do a sketch a day for the next 365 days. It's a way to get off my artistic arse and actually try to be creative this year. I will admit there will be some days there won't be a sketch, on those days I hope to post a pic of a sculpture, either completed or at least in progress. To start this off, I'm supposed to do a sculpture for a friend as a late birthday present. We have a renaissance faire that comes to our state and is open every weekend from mid-August til the end of Sept/beginning of October. She goes EVERY weekend and dresses to the nines for it. I'm making her a little critter to go into her corset for a new costume she's making. With no further ado... baby griffin cleavage critter sketch for how the sculpt will hopefully look.
