Each year, even if I'm gone ages, I have to come at Christmas for the beautiful Christmas tree. So, this is my entry: The Holiday Turtle Tree.
It is made with polymer clay (UN-BAKED!!) and a bit of garland for the tree. Presents are just foam wrapped as mini-presents.
The 'lights' that don't show well on the tree are bits of the clay painted with eye shadow. WIsh they had shown up better. I kind of cheated on the candy cane and just used a colored pipe cleaner.
I used one of my sculpting tools to get the intricate design on the turtle--again, probably doesn't come through, LOL. I am so not an artist--but it was fun!
He's going to be baked, glazed and I'll use the 'tree' to hang him
Excuse the mess! This was taken in my craft room, as I was afraid if I moved it before it was baked that it would fall apart on me.
