Dim Sum - Shumai

So today is my grandma’s birthday and she absolutely loves roses! So of course, I made her some roses =]. The water is resin and the red is actually a little sparkly. I mixed red clay with pearly white and I love how the color turned out!

The stems are silver colored. At first I was going to make them green, but I wanted to try it in silver and I actually think it looks kinda cool being silver XD.

Underwater Cake

I totally…kinda went crazy with this XD hehe.  It was soooo fun making this and I loved using all these colors! :D  I’ve been wanting to make something underwater with corals and shells for a while and let’s say Finding Nemo was a big inspiration!  I have always loved how vibrant the colors are in Pixar movies so I wanted to try doing that! :D I hope I kinda achieved that!

This piece measures about 1.5 inches tall and is 100% handmade from polymer clay.  It took me hmmm…about 6-7 hours.

I hope you guys like it as much as I had fun making it! :D

So here is my first attempt at making a salad. I’d say I’m pretty happy with how it turned out =]. I also made the little napkin from cutting a tiny piece of fabric and the napkin ring is a jump ring I put around the fabric. The salad measures quite small as you can probably tell, it is smaller than a quarter!

I haven’t decided what to do with this piece yet, either make it into a ring, magnet, or simply leave it as is…what do you guys think? ^_________^

I hope you guys like this!! _{grrr…I still need a miniature fork!!! >.< We shall just pretend the miniature person eating this is already holding the fork in his hand…hohoho ^o^}

Hi everyone!

I have always loveeeed going to aquariums. That was the inspiration for this piece. I wanted to make something small that fit in a bottle while at the same time I wanted it to be underwater related with gentle colors.

I wouldn’t say this piece is perfect since I see some places were I would want to improve and experiment some more, but overall, I like it =].

This bottle has a cork on it but I didn’t put it on yet. (It will have an eye pin at the top so it can be worn as a pendant).  It was easier to take a better picture with light coming in from the top. The bottle itself measures about one inch tall and the fishes are quite tiny! _{so tiny I don’t know what to compare it to.} The bottom of the bottle is lined with sand and everything else is made with polymer clay. The seaweeds were quite interesting to make. They are extremely thin, where even after baking it, it still moved and waved because it was almost paper thin (think the resin distorted it so you can’t really see how thin it is from this angle).

Hope you guys like this piece! I had a lot of fun making it =].
