Humpty Dumpty Sat on a Wall....

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.

All the King's horses and all the King's men

Couldn't put Humpty together again.

This is what happened to the poor thing:

Busy Bee

I have been a busy little bee this weekend! I made a lot of new stuff, and I think it all came out pretty well. I think I need to take a break (at least 3 days) because my fingers HURT!

No I did not cut myself again! They just hurt because I've been picking up little pieces of metal, blending clay colors, etc. Occupational hazard, I guess.....

Here's a pic of most of the stuff I did this weekend. Since Valentine's Day is coming up, I used a LOT of two of my favorite things: pink and glitter!

I'll upload all the close-ups next!

An army of gummy bears!

Gummy bears in an assortment of colors! One green one has been transformed into a keychain for Jimmy. I think I'll make one into a necklace for myself, but I'm not sure which color I want yet...I'm leaning toward orange, yellow, or red....we'll see!

White, blue, and purple gummy bears? I've never seen real gummy bears in those colors but who cares!

The one on the top right is my best attempt at a clear (pineapple) bear. I used "translucent" clay. It looks white before baking and turns pinkish after baking. Not very translucent, huh? Oh well!

FOR ME!

It took me a while to decide what I wanted for myself. There's so many desserts that I like to eat! I decided to go with my favorite donut: white cake, white frosting, and rainbow sprinkles!

For Gaby!

Jimmy's mom is a fan of flan, so I decided to give it a try!

For Mom!

A delicious cherry pie!

For Kenya!

Strawberry cheesecake for my sister! While making the strawberry sauce drizzle, I was literally drooling. Looks so yummy!

Happy Birthday to Jessica!

Sushi for my sushi-loving friend Jessica! It's a California roll, so it contains crab (red/white), avocado (light green/dark green), and cucumber (see-through green). Of course there has to be rice and nori (black seaweed wrap)!

This was the first thing I made with polymer clay so I accidently over did it! I made like 9 necklaces, 4 pairs of dangly earrings, and 12 pairs of posts!

Happy birthday Jessica! I hope you enjoy your stuff!

Close-up!

"I hope you don't need stitches..."

I started making stuff with my clay the day after Christmas, or maybe even the day after that. Jimmy warned me at least twice, "Be careful with those razor blades!" I was being careful (at first).

Jimmy was sitting downstairs reading when all of the sudden he hears me yell, "I'm bleeding!" or "There's blood!" something like that. I don't remember, I was frantic! I had sliced the tip of my right index finger! He came upstairs and helped me clean it, put some neosporin on it, and put a band-aid on it. It still kind hurts if I push on it and it's January 5th! It looks healed on the outside, but I guess the inside is still sore?

Polymer clay is a dangerous hobby! I just can't believe that on my first day of using it, Jimmy had to say "I hope you don't need stitches."

My Super Fancy Studio/Office!

Here is where all the clay magic will happen!

Got my toolbox!

Got my cabinet of goodies!

Got my very own toaster oven for baking the clay!

Thank you, Jimmy for such an awesome Christmas present!

Stay tuned for all the cool things I'm going to make! I've already finished Jessica's birthday present, but I won't post those pictures until after she receives it in the mail.

Halloweeeeeeeeeeeen!!!!!!!

Halloween is a day for eating sweets ALL DAY and not feeling bad about it. I also think this applies to the day before Halloween. I made cupcakes and brought them to work on the 30th. Here they are!

They were filled with pistachio pudding so that there was green goo on the inside!

Check out the monster feet cupcake holders! Thanks to Jessica for buying these for me a while back!

My work costume. It was fun to dress up and do lab work. I felt like a mad scientist!

Jimmy and I carved pumpkins on the night of the 30th.

Jimmy's pumpkin!

Jimmy's cyclops pumpkin, and my cannibal pumpkin!

At the hockey game on Halloween night.

Cookie Monster and the cookie!

After the hockey game we decided to go home and watch a zombie movie. We ate rice crispy treats and captain crunch treats, watched some Food Network, and then went to sleep!

Wow, that was fast!

All the leaves are gone.... no more pretty colors. :(
