Evalina Rose and her little sister Posy Anna are the main characters of a series of children's stories that I am writing. In this blog I will share the final stages of crafting their half scale house--Honeysuckle Cottage--and the miniature stuff that will make up the settings of their stories.

Sculpting in Femo

    I am leaving for vacation this week and will be back on April 30.   This is what I did this weekend.
She is not easy to photograph
 I have been trying to find a new clay to sculpt in.  I have been using porcelain, but I find it irritates my eyes, sinuses and skin...not good.  I have used cold porcelain now for flowers and this weekend I tried to make a new born out of Femo.  I was happy with the form, but  not with the surface finish.  I will have to keep working.

  5. You can sand the fimo very easy, it no problem, after sanding just rub some mineral oil tot bring back the color. And also you can scrape of bumps with a knife
