I had several requests for a how-to on my handmade Santas, Angels, Nativity, and Wise Men that I featured in my Christmas decorations posts...

I make OOAK Santa dolls. Thanks to my sis she got me started on this by sending me one of her completed Santa's in the early 1990s. I just loved him and I purchased some items to send to her that I had gotten a great bargain on for her santa construction. I held on to these items for a while and she had told me she quit making them and don't have the time. So I just kept the items and decided later that I would try making them myself as she told me that she and her friends would get together…

I am so sorry it has taken me so long to get this posted for you . SO many distractions these days. Today, I am showing you how I paint my clay and chalkware faces. As you have probably seen my last post on how to actually sculpt the clay faces. This is simple and basic, and quite honestly, I'm a little embarrassed, because, I don't feel that I do that good of a job. But, the end result looks pretty good, and they have been well received over the years. Start by base coating the face with…

What would Christmas be without adorable Christmas Pixies? The folklore of pixies dates back to some time in the 1800’s, but more recently, Danish artist Dorthe Mailil has created her line of whimsical pixies dressed in red and grey for her toy brand Maileg. Although Maileg designs are sold in many countries around the world now, it is still difficult to get them here in Australia, so I’ve been lusting after them for years.
