Creative Workings

So I've been trying new craft things this summer. My summer of craft. I start my residency at Gwinnett Medical in the ICU, Aug 10th. I am really excited - but until then it's study for NCLEX and craft! Here are a few thing I made up this last week.

These little clay mushroom charms I made for my friend Jean to use in her hemp necklaces. I also made plant stakes in the same colors for my terrariums.




I love this Votive Candle Holder. I made some hanging ones too which I will photograph this week. This lime green votive cozy is stiffened so it stands on its own and doesn't sag. I found the glass at a thrift store. Glass stands 4inches tall & 2.5 inches wide. Listed in etsy shop.

Mushrooms





Yesterday while waiting for the gas man, I made a bunch of little clay mushrooms for my terrariums. They turned out super cute.














See - I told you they were super cute.

















They were so cute that this terrarium found a new home :-)

Kraftworks Prep





I've been gearing up for Kraftworks tomorrow night at Youndblood. I'm going to bring a few terrariums I've been working on & see how they do.


This is one I'm especially proud of.

















For this one I made the little mushroom out of clay - my first experience working with clay. I crocheted a hanger out of cotton. And glued a vintage button to the lid after I spray painted it.







I used aquarium rocks, potting soil, charcoal and moss from my garden for the plant life.
