Polymer Clay and Paper Flowers

I have been playing with Polymer Clay all day to get into the swing of what I have to teach at our convention. So the next few posts will show some of the things I have made over the years using flowers as decoration...I find even when I doodle .....
I always draw flowers.

My flowers are not true to life having more fantasy in their creation, or should I say artistic license.

Here is a crib I made in fimo, it was rather difficult as the fimo kept on bubbling on the larger sections...
The flowers were definitely the fun part.
I have the distinct feeling the teddies like their crib too!



CLICK ON the photograph to enlarge it!

The Teddies were made by a lady here in Cape Town but I have clean forgotten where I put their labels.

Yesterday at our guild, I learned how to make a mold in silicone so using a finding of a leaf, I made a mold.

Well the Gypsy ladies of my imagination have had a lot of fun making garlands to decorate their dresses.
Here a leaf there a leaf everywhere a leaf  leaf!!!
Pictures on the next post, they are still in the oven....
Way too hot at the moment!!!

  5. Sharon, I have long admired your darling little cradle from the photo in your header. Amazing to think that you have made it from clay. I thought for sure that it was a wonderful vintage item that you had. I LOVE the flowers applied to it! The bears are so adorable too!!
