Fun With Clay!

Posted by Glenda under Art, Cool stuff, Crafts

Sorry for being so dramatic the last post. Just one of those days ya know?

Yesterday I took a “personal day” (called in sick) so I got to sleep last night, yay! I’m up in the daylight hours like a normal person! It’s pretty crazy! With this whole job situation coming up, working nights is one thing I won’t miss.

Anyway, today I’m enjoying my day off by baking a Peanut Butter & Jelly cake with the girls. I’ll let you know how it turns out. Andrew thinks it sounds nasty. I think it sounds interesting..and the girls think it just sounds delicious!

Also here’s a little photo gallery of what I did this past weekend! I went out and bought some poloymer clay that you can bake in the oven after you sculpt your creation. I didn’t make any “penny monsters” (yet) but I did make a little black scottie dog, a kitty, and what was supposed to be a hamster but turned out looking more like a koala bear (it was my very first). I took some pictures of the bottle cap magnets I made too. What do you think? I have some non-alcoholic bottle caps too, I just need to make magnets out of them.

Again..sorry for going a little over board in my last post. Things are looking up :)
