I'm back!

First, I'd like to thank you all for your "get well soon" messages to my husband. He's improving each day but he's a bit like my college aged daughters when they are home for the summer - he's bored out of his mind. :) When he's working he's on the go all day and is pretty tired by the time he gets home so he doesn't mind quiet activities. But now he keeps thinking of all that needs to be done outside and he's getting stir crazy - but he's not driving me crazy yet so it's all good, lol.

I've been busy with a commission these past few days. It's a bedroom for a very young boy.
The furniture and bedding is all my design and was very fun to make. I've been making a lot of girly, pastel things recently so this has been a nice change of pace.

The Diner's population is growing

I'm making the people for the diner as inspiration hits. This is the boyfriend for the girl sitting at the end booth. He's got a nickel in his hand ready to put in the jukebox.

I experimented with making a plaid pattern with the clay for his shirt. It ended up looking more like a 70s disco shirt, lol. A coat of navy paint over the print toned it down and made it look more like the subtle plaid I was hoping for.
I want to make a little girl eating the ice cream sundae at the counter and an adult, don't know whether it will be male or female, at the other booth.
