When Clay Meets Crochet


I followed a wonderful tutorial over at  Christina Lowry Designs  to make Air Dry Clay Ornaments
 

I discovered that different doileys make very different impressions.
 
I experimented with using some rubber stamps
 
and different shaped cookie cutters
 
I found this lovely string at Spotlight today ( I happily spent my $10 Christmas voucher on the clay on Thursday night)
 
I love all of the textures, and how each one is so unique.
I think they will look lovely tied onto presents wrapped in brown paper.
I may even pop one into my ornament swap packages!
 
A very enjoyable and productive way  way to spend an hour or two.
Thankyou Christina.
 
What did you spend your spotty voucher on?

    They look great you could experiment with all sorts of things...
