My name is Nicole, I'm 23 years young and live with my husband and our two adorable doggies in our home in beautiful upstate New York. I've been crafting incessantly since I gained motor function. Polymer clay has been my preferred material for the last several years, though I enjoy playing with other mediums as well, I'm hoping that blogging will help me network with other crafters and help me grow as an artist :]
Polymer Clay Heart Pendant Series
Lately I've been interested in challenging myself to work small. I found a teeny and adorable heart cookie-cutter at a thrift shore, and have been using it to make bases for little pendants. This cherry blossom tree was my first experiment; a bit rudimentary and lacking in detail, though I was initially pleased with it.
I should probably admit that I am a bit of a pumpkin fanatic. And I mean, really, I'm a crazy pumpkin fanatic. My dream is to have a pumpkin farm someday. I have hundreds of pumpkin-related items in my home. They played a starring role in my wedding, where they were decor, favors, and place card holders.
I have a pumpkin tattooed on my wrist.
I love them. I think they're the greatest thing ever. So, naturally, I like to tie them into my crafting. This was my second attempt, and I wore it everyday for months so every person i came in contact with would know my affinity with pumpkins.
The way I feel about pumpkins is rivaled only by that my husband feels about Alice In Wonderland.
This one is my favorite to date.
Alice herself is a bit shorter than a penny, and the flowers have Swarovski centers. I was very pleased with how she turned out!
I'm really excited to share my craftings with fellow bloggers and un-bloggers! And with that, my first blog post draws to an end. Hopefully the next will be up soon!
