I saw this post and loved how effective Sarah’s wishing bone place holders turned out. Seeing as it’s been a long time since I got creative with polymer clay I thought I’d invest in some and put my hands to good use. Although originally I was going to make some smaller wishing bones, perhaps to … More Craft: Wishing Bone
I’ve had the same jewellery holder since the beginning of uni when I threw this one together from cheap teaspoons and a plastic coat hanger. Crafty and fit for purpose, yes, but when a friend offered me a dear skull (with antlers still intact) in an instant I saw the potential to upgrade my coat hanger display … More Craft: Dear Antler Jewellery Display
I’ve been on the down-low for a while, but I’m coming back with a vengeance. Starting with this stop-motion collaboration between myself and animator pro, Object.
