Happy Thursday Morning :)

Good Morning

I don't have photos of my work this morning but I do have an embossing link for the plates that you might want to take a peek at..this is the tutorial for embossing your mini plates that are made out of paper (not all of us can afford the good stuff) embossing tips   and in case you missed it here is the link to cute paper plates and casserole dishes

I'll post some photos of my faux Palm trees that I made from that site I was going to use them for a mini scene but I've changed my mind I found something better. (dont worry I'll post photos of what I'm doing)

I feel like such a slug cause I haven't been doing any mini foods but I have a garden to tend too and I've been working on that recently plus all the other drama that goes on around here.

you should really search around on those two websites they have tons of stuff and great tips


see you later


Love

Happy Thursday

Im looking forward to Friday, I had some free time today so I made some Apples--this is my first try and I added a few things to the Citrus platter too have a look see:

I liked the way the Red and Golden Delishous turned out..the granny smith could use some work , not bad for a first time  

I added some cut fruit to the citrus platter I was whining to a friend and she pointed out that Angie Scarr  (she's like the queen of cane) usually shows a cut piece of fruit...problem solved I cut a lemon and a lime I might do an orange but I'm not into caning right now..maybe later yes I know I'm a lazy so and so but I do things in my own time ..this is Marisa World after all right?

so thats it for today when you go to angies website you'll be on a pizza page just click the back button on the bottom she got some great tutorials there too  Im going to do those coconuts ..watch and see

have a nice night

Love

Happy Tuesday Ya'll

Yes I've been watching Paula Dean again but mostly I've been getting back into the studio (My God what a mess I don't see how I could even work in there much less make stuff)  but I've been doing busy work like setting up little displays and I finally figured out what to do about my roombox ( I really should have started on a shadowbox its much smaller and easier to do.  live and learn right?

so anyway the packages are sent and I've been playing with fruit, I finally figured out that I might need to mix color into my clay and then dust it with chalk this is just an experiment cause even after a year I'm still learning about what this stuff actually is capable of and I've got two more blocks to go of old walmart sculpty (I should probably break down and buy some colored sculpty but that would be taking the easy way out I can color it myself ..I've been reading on my down time too..I's smart now)

so here are the packages :  for the give away they've gone on their way to their new owners, hopefully they'll be displayed in someones shadowbox/roombox or dollhouse  :)

this is a jewelry box that I covered with bread for my friend at work, I think I should have added a bit more  she likes shabby chic, I should have painted it but she likes blue so..why paint?

and this is my test fruit, not too good but I've done worse plus Im just getting back into the swing of things, I'll show you more when I redo this piece (i show my failures and my successes, keeps me honest)

 so that's all from the old homestead, I hope you have been keepng busy..I know I haven't but I think it's a good thing

 I'm off to bed, Ive been listening to the Hunger Games on audio book while I sleep..well before I fall asleep it's nice to have someone to read to you dont you think? 

have a wonderful tomorrow

Love
Marisa :)

Hi guys

Marisa
