December already!?

When did that happen?! I don't have any fimo to show you guys this week as I am having a break from making. Need to recharge my batteries and work on some new ideas for the new year.

I'll be shutting my shop for the holidays on Monday 21st December (which is last post for 1st class mail as well) but until then buy any pair of earrings and receive a FREE gift box for them! Perfect for stocking fillers, Secret Santa or maybe just a treat for yourself :) Shop HERE

Fimo Friday

So I made these guys recently, I had planned them to be for sale however the super glue I use to glue the cork in the glass vial has gone all frosty at the top. I'm not happy to sell dragons I am not 100% proud of, and these guys were looking really good till then. So anyway they will be staying with me and going up with the rest of the Christmas decorations.

The silver one has a hook in his back for some ribbon so he can be hung on a tree.

I still have other dragons and handmade earrings in the shop! as the image above explains I have a discount code running till cyber Monday (on orders over £10)

Fimo Friday

I made myself a little Sphero BB-8 Droid necklace to wear at the Star wars Midnight showing in December. Made from super sculpey and painted with acrylics.

I was commissioned to make a dragon with the theme of Space. So I made this little guy, he came out really well, so pretty! The moon is super sculpey painted with acrylics.

And finally I made another Dragon's dust, with the theme of Halloween and Poison. He is now sold.

Final inktober week




Yay, I managed to do a couple more than last year! It was quite a challenge to find things to draw, or things that I could draw. Anyway I am pleased with what I drew and I even ventured out of my comfort zone a couple of times. I also think I got into the groove a bit more towards the end, utilising cross-hatching for shading.

This weeks Inktober






This week started out with a nature theme then I ran out of things to draw so I found an old SLR camera and then finally a bit of fan art from Star wars. All drawn with Staedtler fineliner pens and a Derwent Graphik Grey pen, and a smidge of watercolours.

Inktober so far












Sketched up in pencil first, then I go over the lines with Staedtler fineliners or Derwent Graphik pens and in the case of the moon; Papermate flair pen. Some are better then others and some have more time spent on then others. Its a good challenge for myself, not only to try to draw something everyday but also trying to shade in pen (which you can probably tell I am not very good at lol). I am also trying to do different subjects as well like buildings, not just sticking to animals.

Salisbury Baron Hunt

Currently my home town Salisbury is playing host to some arty Barons as celebration of 800 years of the Magna Carta (The Cathedral holds one of four). There are 25 Barons dotted around Salisbury and yesterday I finally found all of them. Here are my 3 favourite ones:

The Stained Glass Flower Baron by Louise Luton


The Salisbury Baron by Jodie Silverman

I just love the details on the back 

East Meets West by Sam Coe and Archie Cook

Love the Tiger!

Fimo Friday

He he, I realise I never posted on here what my secret project was:

 The Seven deadly sins!
The final dragon being Greed/Avarice. This one is my favourite, he came out so shiny!

Envy has already sold but the rest are available in my shop










Here are the finished cake toppers that I had been working for many weeks. The rabbit is 3 inches tall, much bigger then my practice pieces.

Super Sculpey

I've been working with Super Sculpey this week:

On the right is the first attempt at a rabbit and the black and white one is my second. The rabbit is the bride in the wedding cake toppers I am working on for my friend.









and the groom is the duck, trying to make it look like a Indian runner duck so its more upright then my previous ducks.











The two together.

Moar dragons..

Busy restocking my shop with dragons at the moment, here are some of the new ones:

Dragon's Dust: Wish,
For some reason the image in this blog has come out waaaay darker then he actually is :s My Facebook page has a better image  (despite it being the same image I have just uploaded here)

Going to be in the Etsy shop shortly





Dragon's Dust: Dreams, This little girl has a vial of dreams wrapped tightly in her tail.

Will be on Etsy soon









I loved the sleeping dragon pose so much I made a D20 dragon. The D20 is removable so it can be used for games and given back to the dragon for safe keeping afterwards.

He will be in the shop once I have finished varnishing him and he's dry.

Dragonsdust Dragons


Been kind of rubbish at updating this blog recently, so here is a summary of some new things I have been working on:

Started a new series of dragons, These are Dragon's dust dragons because of the little vials of dragons dust held in their tails.

The red one is Love and she is available here
The green one is Lucky and he already has a home.

I am working on another one at the moment, just waiting for his varnish to finish drying.






I have also been working with Super
Sculpey and Acrylic Paint, making these little duck figurines. The reason I am making little duck figurines is practice for some wedding cake toppers for my best friend's wedding.
Mute Swan.











Then I redid the ducks to have a more realistic head and neck shape.
