Here is another Wishing Jar that I will be listing soon. I decided to keep the glass uncovered on this one because I like the shape of it too much to cover it up. I love the way it turned out so I will definitely make more like this.
I love the idea of having a wishing jar. Sometimes it feels good to just write down the things in life you wish you had.

Just thought I would spread some Faerie Love. I recently received this photo of my sister-in-law, Mom, and I. And I realized how great the wings I made for us photograph. I love them!

Oh I am sooo excited I could pee my pants!!! My good friend, Klocker, happened to fall into getting us the cutest studio space. I can't wait to get all moved in and start plucking away at new projects. The natural light is this place is fantastic and the space ohh all the space. I love it. Sure I enjoy my art space at home, but it is crowded and I usually have more than one project going on.Mo♥Mohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02356021577896967499noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7836652027753335766.post-32473254539998230622009-01-27T13:52:00.005-06:002009-01-27T19:42:28.494-06:00Paper Mache Maddness
I have fallen in love with a new medium....Papier Mache! I still like polymer clay but the finish I get with paper mache is fantastic. I have always enjoyed paper mache folk art pieces and I am really inspired to take my Whimsy Houses in that direction. This is a pic of my first one. I'm donating it to a Charity auction for a friend of mine that has a husband with cancer.

They were handmade by my grandparents. My grandpa Buggs cut all the wood pieces and glued them together and my grandma Gidge painted them and added all the details. They are the most precious ornaments I own.

I am so excited that my Whimsy Houses are selling that I thought I would explain more about them.
These are pics of me and my sister-in-law , Becky. We are standing in front of our fairy booth. Three years ago we decided it would be fun to make some handcrafted items to sell . We both love fairies and whimsical stuff, so we started making fairy charms, copper wire bubble wands, crowns, Mo♥Mohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02356021577896967499noreply@blogger.com0
