Textured face wine bottle stopper, can be used on an open bottle of wine or olive oil bottle, makes a perfect conversation piece or hostess gift. It is on a stainless steel rubber ringed stopper that will fit most bottles. The face is made from polymer clay and stained so that the details can be seen.

 Alphabet Letter A Monster Sculpture

By: Little Green Guy (innovativemom)

The First in my Little Green Guy Alphabet Collection! What better definition for the letter A than Artist?! This sculpture would be perfect in a kids room or a great gift for an artistic friend!  Measuring approx 5" tall by 4.5" wide, this sculpture is handmade from clay, then hand painted with acrylic paint and finally glazed with a high gloss finish to give a "ceramic" effect. The letter itself is MDF. 

Valentine Sheep

Something a little different to show someone special just how much you care. This was hand made by me using polymer clay. He measures at 9cm tall.

 

Kaleidoscope Jellyfish Polymer clay Necklace

By: Curly Girl Designs

You may be wondering why this is called a Jellyfish Pendant. Well, it is made from a photo of beautiful jellyfish that I took at the Vancouver Aquarium. I then used a computer program that makes kaleidoscope images from your photos and this is the finished product!  This pendant is made from white polymer clay and the image was applied using a photo transfer technique. It was then baked, sanded and coated with a layer of resin for protection and a glass like shine. It measures 1.5" and has a silver plated bail. It comes hanging on an 18" pale blue cord and organza ribbon necklace.

Etsy Finds Friday - Felted and Knitted Animal Toys

It's *♥*Etsy Finds Friday*♥*

Today I am featuring the 

Handmade Felted and Knitted

Animal Toys

Created by: 

Forestblue

 

About the Artist, In the Artist's own Words:

When I was a small girl I made most of my toys from old T-shirts, tights or socks, giving dolls buttons for eyes and yarn hair :) I kept only one toy from that long forgotten period - an old worn down black horsie I made when I was about 9 years old.

Years later, in a creative unrest I began making toys: little bears and bunnies, moose or mice. They are all made to appear sweet, friendly and heartwarming. I love creating them and take pleasure in making them for others :)  Forestblue animals stand for love and care, natural material and uniqueness.

 

 

 Boniface

Boniface is a heartwarming lovely bear, a very special little friend or an elegant gift for someone you love.  Boniface is made of two colours merino wool – light beige and a beautiful warm melange brown. The red ribbon gives Boniface festive look and adds to his charm. 

 

 

Bubbles

BUBBLES makes a perfect child or baby gift toy, but knitted bunnies have this special power to also melt some very grown-up hearts!  This handmade bunny is stuffed with natural anti-allergic filling material. His body is very soft and flexible, you can squeeze him and pull ears and arms without worry. He's extremally hugable and likes to say "If I was a sweater, I sure would be very warm" :)

 

 

 Willy

Meet Willy, a little forest friend. This baby deer enjoys playing hide and seek - you may want to watch out for him, Willy tends to wander off, especially when stumbles upon magical creatures like butterflies.... Willy is made of pure organic merino wool in light wheat beige color. Willy's body is soft and delicate, he stands on long and thin but sturdy legs, as their position is adjustable, you can make your fawn jump and run and take funny poses.

A Soccer Player and a Birthday Boy!

I just finished two fun clay creations!  One is a Soccer Player and the other is a First Birthday Cake Topper.  First I'll share the Birthday Cake Topper.  My customer sent a picture of her son's monkey blanket and asked that it be included in the topper.  Here's a picture of the blanket:

.¸.•´¸.•*´¨) ¸.•*¨)

(¸.•´ (¸.•` ♥  It was such fun to create and incorporate a whimsical version of this adorable blanket!  I placed the blanket on one side of the little boy and a 'toy' car on the other side.  He's sitting in front of a great big cupcake with colorful sprinkles on top, along with a shiny blue candle, all lit up and ready to be blown out.  He has a happy smile, and just look at those cute little toes!  He's holding a big pearly blue balloon with a red number one on it.   Please look for this topper to be listed in my Etsy Shop (Trina's Clay Creations) soon, as an example of a Child's Birthday Cake Topper that can be purchased from me.

 

 

.¸.•´¸.•*´¨) ¸.•*¨)

(¸.•´ (¸.•` ♥  Created at the request of my cousin, next is a little Soccer Player.  He's so happy and proud as he 'poses' for his soccer pictures!  He's got one foot on his soccer ball and is standing in the grass...

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.
