Paper Mache Snow!

Snowy sculptures of paper mache snow
-

We've been having a few craft days

in which my daughter and a friend's daughter and I

have been making paper mache snowmen and angels

-

The one above is by Megan and OH! She is adorable!!!

We spent her birthday embellishing with paint and glitter

-

I've discovered a product called Celluclay

~ used my half-off coupon at Michaels and bought a large bag ~

Here are some of our works in progress

-

We made armatures from aluminum foil

and covered them with the wet clay-like paper mixture.

It took a few days to dry so the embellishing had to wait.

Here are our pieces after drying.... they don't look like

much yet, but just wait!!!

-

Below are my three.

Come back to see how they look after todays session!

Here is a little guy I finished, he stands only 2 inches tall

-And sits atop glittered crepe paper

on a round paper mache box covered in glitter
-

This one is a collaberation between a 5 year old,

and Jessica and myself

TOO MUCH FUN!!!

{like that is possible}

~ And now, a completely different subject ~

Don't you just love those "MakeOver" shows in which

those with an eye for fashion completely make over someone

from looking a mess into someone beautiful?

(I find it quite fascinating)

-

~ Well, here it is in reverse ~

A doll I bought for Megan's 2-1/2 year old daughter,

Here she is wearing the tutu I made for her

and wearing an elegant tiara.

-

I knew a photo had to be taken before she became well-loved

This dolly was meant to be played with

~ not set on a shelf for display ~

Here she is 3 days later
