My attempt with ploymer clay






For the EtsyforAnimals challenge for January I decided to have a go at making clay beads. The photos are the results, with the help of someone special (who made the pig and gave it to me!). It was fun and interesting, and a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. I definately need a lot more practise!
The next time I had a go at polymer clay, I made these cats and a bat:

and finally I made the clay beads into a bracelet, but I had to add a few wooden beads, as there was not enough to fit on my wrist!:

Large Catnip Cats






I love making Catnip toys. I love to see my cats playing with them , or indeed any cats. My latest catnip toys have been made as a Large Cat, out of Acrylic Felt and appliqued, and stitched. They are big enough for a cat to really get hold of and attach/roll/play/lie on!
This is Billy and Ruby playing with two of them!
