A Craft Porcelain Welcome

What a way to be welcomed home - a great place to hang my gardening hat or hang up a leash:)

I decided to try working with a new clay.  Craft porcelain is easily available in craft store but, in some ways, more difficult to work with than polymer clay even though it does air dry.

After some trial and error I've decided I really like the stuff.  Here's my completed piece......

.....I affixed the roses to the wood plaque, painted the entire piece one color and then added the crystal knob.  I really love it, hope you do to:)  Give it a try!!

miniature fairy roses


I've been working quite small lately. Teeny tiny fairy roses, some only less than 1/4 inch.

This homemade dollhouse fireplace mantle is only 5" across

A tiny bouquet of roses is better than no roses at all.....right?
I think they would also be very pretty fused onto a brooch - thoughts?
I have seen some really cute little fairy doors for your home and adding these climbing, arching roses around that would bring it some cottage:) Hmmm I think I have a new line for my Etsy shop:)
