Fimo-fairy, stamp bracelets, and a Gonzo watchcuff

[lyssian.livejournal.com]

Hi, it's my first post. ^_^ Bit nervous, of course, that either A) I suck or B) I'm somehow posting wrong. So if in either case I am, do tell.

I've been feeling especially crafty lately, so I've been making no end of wearable and otherwise neat things. The digital camera finally turned up (strangely enough, exactly where I left it), so here they are, in descending order of how many images are in each. Seven pictures total, so a little patience may be needed on slow internet. I figured I might as well post them as a clump and not clog up the community with three different posts. Can separate them if you'd prefer, though, or explain how they were done if I'm confusing anyone.



Made of flesh-tone and red metallic fimo clay.


With red-dyed Guinea plumage for wings and "decency" feathers.


I made it to look like the fairies they sell at the Renaissance Festival


It's hung with fishing wire over our kitchen sink. :)




I glued these to index cards then covered them with glue to solidify them a bit. One has an actual bracelet clasp, the other just has a yarn tie (ran out of clasps).


They're all from Spain, sorry you can't see them better. :/ (thanks Laia!).




Gonzo? Yea, Gonzo like Hunter S Thompson. Yes, that one, the one who did Fear and Loathing. Anyway, it's made of an old watch my mom had laying around. I found the tutorial (basically: remove watch back. remove battery. insert picture) on another site.
