I am so happy you have stopped by "My Little Colorado Cottage" today.
For the past couple of weeks I've been working with paper clay, I have wanted to handmake vintage inspired 'Snowmen' to add to my Winter décor this season.
***
This weekend I finished up the project
***
For now I have all of the cute snowmen on top of the hutch as I refresh some of my vignettes for the month of February, these little guys will be moving around.
I followed the recipe, but added just a little more shredded paper, this recipe makes a large batch of clay
My thought was to put the paper clay over the snowmen form.
as it turned out the playdough cracked so bad that the paper clay worked out well covering the cracks.
*****
I also used toilet paper rolls for a taller snowmen and used aluminum foil to form arms.
*****
It took some time to dry thoroughly, I did use aluminum foil shaped in a ball for the snowmen made from the paper roll
After all was done, I preferred the fabric scarves and fabric embellishment on the stove top hat instead of the felt.
Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to stop by to see what I have been up to.
What do you think of this project, for the first time using with paper clay?
So until my next post......
May God Bless You and Your Family,
