So I finished this one faster than the others, I actually made this one in 4 days!!!! That's a record for me! I was making her for a gift exchange that I had for Christmas, but I started her the day before so I ended up having to wait because the clay was not dry by Christmas morning. Nevertheless, I am very happy that I got to keep her for my collection, wouldn't want her in the wrong hands. Not everyone can appreciate art, right? or at least my art, maybe??? Anyhow, I was very happy about how she turned out.
I guess I should try to sell some of these, but I have grown attached to them all and can't bare to part with them... one day.... maybe...
I did learn a few things while making her:
Make glitter the final step!!!
Do not crackle too much, once you add the antiquing, it will show a LOT more!!!
The antiquing paint/medium whatever it's called, use it sparingly, she doesn't need to look like she was dragged through the mud afterwards, LOL!
Here she is: Golden Fairy (need to find her a name!)
Musical notes on her wings... not my idea of course... I think I saw this on one of Nancyes Art Dolls.
