Silhoutte tree with mini tutorial

When I started this blog I knew I wanted  some props to help with photography,

I decided to make some and came up with this when I discovered 1/4" fun foam

Come to think of it this tree would be awesome for Halloween,

I just might have to make some polymer clay ornaments to go with it

To make your own you will need:

one sheet 1/4" fun foam ( I purchased mine at Michael's )

craft knife

the pattern

trace pattern onto funfoam using a sharp craft knife cut out

the finished tree is 8 inches high and is 6 inches at the widest point

Sea Turtle necklace

Polymer clay sea turtle with pearls and glass beads

Button bracelet

created with buttons, polymer clay spacer bar, magnetic clasp and beading thread

this is the back so you can see it's construction done with a needle and beading thread

Jalapeno Box

One of my favorite polymer clay project a polymer clay box- I think the face came out great, but the conceal hiding place for small trinkets makes this project special- I plan on doing similar projects  but in different shapes.

If you see any project here you would like to learn more about feel free to contact me and let me know, If it's a good candidate it could be featured as a tutorial
