i love my dremel and not so fond of sealing



half a dozen projects in different stages of sanding, sealing :( and painting before i spilled half a bottle of sealer.   errgghh.  soon i will have photos of actual finished minis:)   i have an idea for one of my kits and i'm looking for a gargoyle.  one that would be perching on a dormer. anyone have any ideas?

i love getting things in the mail!

where do i start? i got the houseboat and 2 room "townhouse" box kits that i ordered from greenleaf. YAY!
i also got my mat and baskets from glenda at peppercorn minis. visit her etsy store here.









love them!
i also got 2 wood vases from bertie at bertiesminiatures




















the photos do not do them justice at all.  they are beautiful!

i also ordered hair fiber, living doll clay, wrapped armature wire and teeny tiny beads from
cloth doll supply and ooak artist emporium.

i went to michael's today to return something and they were having a sale on punches and beads (40%-50%) so naturally...
yesterday i was busy with these










and these










i was inspired by victoria and annie at dark squirrel miniatures.  visit her etsy shop here.
