My Mom, Sandy Prenzi, is such an inspiration to me, so talented and artistic!  

She has several shops on Etsy, showcasing her artistic talents,

The first is Sandy's Bangles and Bows, where she offers her handmade and very sweet hair bows and clips, wedding accessories (including beautiful Ring Bearer's Pillows), beautiful mini hats and much more...  Here are a few, and you can click on the link above to visit her shop.

Pixie Rose Hair Clip

Penelope wants to show off her new Hat with the big pink rose. She measures 2.5" tall by 3" wide and has a hair clip attached to the back for easy placement.  I created Penelope out of felt and adorned her bow with a shiny bauble. **Gift Boxed**

Tan and Gold Mini Hat

Mini hats are the rage and this sweet little mini hat is ready to wear on a photo shoot or to a party. It was created out of felt and ribbon and has a hair clip for easy placement.

Next is Sandy's Creations in Clay, where she offers her whimsical and adorable clay creations. Below are a few of her polymer clay creations, and you can click on the link above to visit her shop.

 Ima Bookworm

Ima is a darling little book worm. She has on her very best hat and is ready to read her favorite book called "Down The Wormhole" by U. R. Wiggly. This little scene is made entirely out of polymer clay with the exception of Ima's wire rimmed glasses and her beaded eyes. The measurements are 3.5" wide by 3" tall. 

 Purple fairy Door

Believe in Fairies and one may choose this pretty little purple fairy door to enter and call it her home. As you climb the steps you will see that the little doormat says BELIEVE. A birdbath summons the little birds and the doorway is surrounded with lavender roses, which is very appealing to the little fairies.  Created out of polymer clay and embellished with rubber stamps and Lumiere Pearl paint. This little fairy door stands approximately 2.5" high by 3" wide.

Sandy's newest shop is Novelties and Notions, where she offers things old and new... 'New' are her darling handmade pincushions and trinket boxes.  'Old' are fun patterns to sew your own lovely clothes.  Below are a few of her pieces, and you can click on the link above to visit her shop to see more of her work. 

Mason Jar Pincushion

Filled with thread and buttons, this cute little mason jar has a tiny orange rosebud for a pincushion. Three little pearl colored pins are poking into the bud. I love the fact that it opens for easy access to the things inside. It is wonderful to give to as a shower gift.  It stands 3.5" tall and is 2" wide and comes gift boxed. 

 

 Abrigail Mouse Seamstress Trinket Box

Here is little Abrigail Mouse. She loves to sew and sits upon a box especially for your sewing notions. She's holding a little spool of thread and is looking very helpful.  I created her out of polymer clay and used glass beads for her eyes, Little Abrigail is attached to the box. The dimensions are 4.75" tall including Abby. The box itself measures 2" tall by 3.5" wide, plenty of room for thread, needles, etc.

Etsy Finds Friday - Sandy's Bangles and Bows

It's *♥*Etsy Finds Friday*♥*

Today I am featuring the 

Darling Headbands and Bows

Created by: 

Sandy Prenzi

Sandy's Bangles and Bows

Today I am happy to be featuring my Mom's brand new Etsy Shop!  She's creating these darling Headbands for little girls using buttons and bows. Some of them have her own polymer clay designs, little animal faces, incorporated in the design.  Here are a few, you can click on the image to see the listing in her shop.

 

 

 Ladybug Black and White Girls Headband

I always loved Ladybugs ~ so cute with their polka dot wings. This Ladybug found the perfect home nestled into a black and white Gingham bow.  The headband is very soft and stretchy and will not leave marks on your little one's head. Great for everyday wear or for special occasions.

 

 

My Puppy Headband

There a little puppy peeking out of the silk flower on this bright red headband. The puppy was created out of polymer clay and has glass beads for his bright little eyes. A chiffon bow with a crystal decorates this already darling headband, a delight for any little girl.

Dora the Explorer and Boots Headband

Is there a Dora the Explorer fan at your house? She would be delighted with this big 5" brightly colored bow featuring Dora the Explorer and her monkey Boots. Take notice of the glittered blue heart which compliments this beautifully blue colored headband.

A Polymer Clay Artist Close to my Heart!

It is my pleasure and honor to feature Sandy Prenzi of Sandy's Creations in Clay today!!  She is most definitely a polymer clay artist close to my heart... She is my mom!! :)  I have always been inspired by her artwork and her creativity. When I was little, I remember that she always had a sketch pad with her, she would draw while my brothers and I would play.  All of her drawings were whimsical and sweet.  There was always something creative going on in our house throughout the years!  In fact, encouraging my artistic creativity, my mom and dad bought me my first box of clay when I was about six years old.  I must have made a great big mess because my mom was also the first one to take the clay away from me!  LOL!!  But clay became a BIG part of both of our lives anyway!! My mom and I created lots of things together and dabbled in all kinds of different crafts... One of which was dough art, and at Christmas time we had such fun creating ornaments.  As my own kids were growing up, the tradition continued and we would all sit around the table, enjoying each other while creating wonderful ornaments together.  Those ornaments still hang on our Christmas trees every year! I have many that my mom made and I love them all!  Those are fun memories, and I do believe that was the beginning of both of our sculpting addictions!  

Several years ago, my mom was inspired by all the beautiful masks she saw while walking through the many wonderful shops during her trip to Italy, and she began creating Masked Faces out of Polymer clay not long after that. In May of 2010 she opened her Etsy Shop: Sandy's Creations in Clay ~ where she has a wonderful selection of her Masked Faces, a series of Red Hat Pins, some sweet little Critter Sculptures with great big eyes, her wonderful Fairy Dwelling sculptures and much more.  She loves creating with polymer clay and continues to add new and unique handmade polymer clay creations to her shop all the time.  Here are some of her beautiful items... And you can also click on the link above to visit her Etsy Shop.
