Well at least I was productive

It's half time of my Green Bay football game but the lovely digital TV is out more than in. My team is winning but I haven't seen much of the game. To distract myself I played with some polymer clay. I've been asked to teach some ladies how to make some floral pins next month so I needed to figure out what I want to do. I made several options and I may have a couple of options for them to choose from. I'll use the pasta machine for the real thing so the clay will be blended without obvious lines. I was working on a tray in my lap tonight so just used a roller. I also made some mini dishes with some of the scraps.


The last photo is my son with a large chunk of ice from the chest freezer. He wanted steak yesterday but couldn't get the freezer baskets out to look under them. He decided to take care of that problem - and earned some cash from his dad for his initiative, lol.

Play time!

I had some fun with scraps of polymer clay today. There's peppermint candy and bacon off to the right. I love the pitcher and bowl at the back. The way the clay mixed I got a fired pottery look to the pieces. The blue and green mugs are just so I have some on hand for little scenes. So many times it just takes something that simple to give a room a lived in look.
