Getting ready for Halloween with new ornaments

I've just posted lots of new Halloween ornaments to my Etsy shop. Here are a few of them. Hope you'll pop in and look around, you might find something you just can't live without.  :)

New Snowman and Bunny ornament

Just listed this one in my Etsy shop. Silly bunny, poor Snowman.

Smoochy Smoochy

Sometimes I crack myself up. While sculpting this ornament I just kept getting the giggles. If my family had any doubts about my sanity before I'm sure their peeking into my studio while I worked on this ornament clarified it for them!

Nuts about Wedding Cake topper

I recently had the honor of making a unique wedding cake topper for two very dear friends. Jim has been a close friend of my hubbahubby's for a long time and his soon to be wife Jessica is his perfect match and a really wonderful lady to have as a friend.

A few months before the wedding we were over at their home and while the guys were outside grilling our meal Jessica mentioned that she was having the hardest time finding a cake topper. You see, I've always know Jim by the name all his buddies called him. At first I thought it was his nickname, one given to him because he is Native American. But after I knew him for a little while I found out his "nickname" was actually his last name. Jessica wanted a cake topper that shouted out his and her soon to be last name. I decided it would be the perfect wedding gift to give them and she was very excited about me creating it for them. She gave me complete freedom to follow my muse, only asking that I please add cherry blossoms to it somewhere.

Here is the cake topper I sculpted for them. She was so happy she cried. I love that about her! Can you guess their last name? ....... :)

Finished WIP Ghost and cat.

I finished my newest ooak art doll. He's the first in a new series called "Oopsied". The series will be dolls depicting weird and wacky ways some of us leave this world.


Title: Cat-astrophe

I like to write stories or poems for some of my creations and this poor fellow deserved one. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cat-astrophe

Melvin's wife was quite the nag,
he stopped listening to her long ago.
He never heard her yell, (the old bag)
"The light's blown out, the stairs are dark below!"

With his tummy sounding a rumble grumble
he put his bunny slipper's upon his feet
Sleepily to the kitchen he began to stumble
not knowing the fate he'd soon meet.

At the top of the stairs he found no light.
"Forgot to mention the bulb?" he said with a shout.
"Not that it matters if I have no sight,
I know this old house inside and out!"

He lifted his foot to take the first stair
when he hit something soft and furry.
The next thing he knew he was high in the air
And then everything went kinda blurry.

When he opened his eyes he found he was quite dead
but the universe would show him no mercy.
The voice of his wife was no longer in his head,
now he spends eternity with a pissed off cat named Percy.

Updated WIP Cat-astrophe

I still have a bit to do. More stripes to paint and then "ghostify" and antique.

Yes, those are pink bunny slippers. Yes, I know no man in his right mind would wear them, (according to hubbahubby). They are staying pink, they make me laugh, that's all that matters .... I have spoken! :)

More Pumpkins . wheee!

I've added two more pumpkins to my Etsy Shop. This are such fun to make and would look good hanging on a Halloween tree .... (hint, hint, wink, wink) These two are part of my growing series tilted Jack B. Rotten.

 Going to spend this morning finishing up the sculpting part of two new Halloween dolls/figurines and then teach my daughter how to take pictures of my art so she can take over the photography and I can spend more time on my art.

Bad Seed

What Trick or Treater?

Hope everyone has a wickedly fun weekend!

Two new Pumpkin ornaments

I just listed two new Pumpkin Halloween ornaments in my Etsy shop. I'll be listing 2 more today as well. Thank you all for stopping by and taking a peek!

"Happy Jack"

"Toofy Jack"

Count Pumpcula

Count Pumpcula is my newest addition to my Jack B. Rotten series of Halloween pumpkins that have a rather rotten attitude.

Okay, okay .... I know the name is a bit corny but hey, it works. :)



You can find the Count hanging out here in My little spot on Ebay.

Grinning Jack

Thank you Sue for buying my Grinning Jack ornament from the Queen's Bootique!



He was so excited about finding a new home that he woke me up at 4 am to get him packed all snuggle and safe and wouldn't be quiet till I went out in the dark to put him in my mailbox. (I can hear him out there singing while waiting for the mailman). I hope he brings you lots of grins!

Jack B. Rotten 2

Just finished my newest Jack B. Rotten ornament. I love creating these pumpkins with such nasty attitudes! Must be my wicked muse sneaking out .... :P

You can find it here My Ebay

Pumpkins, pumpkins everywhere

I don't know if it's my desire for cooler fall weather or the fact that I just love Halloween pumpkins but it seems my head is swimming with pumpkin ideas lately. So of course I'd have another pumpkin ornament to offer you all.

I think she's cute with her silly grin.



You can find her at My Ebay

Do you live with Dust Bunnies?

I do and I just caught one! I was doing my weekly cleaning, trying to vacuum under my bed when all of a sudden my vacuum got plugged with something. Great, I just vacuumed up another one of my hubbahubby's socks! Was I surprised to see what the vacuum really got plugged with! Yes, I had caught a sock alright but it was in the mouth of the biggest dust bunny I've ever seen! After I pulled him out of the hose all he said to me was, "What sock?"



You can find this in my Etsy shop

Jack B. Rotten ornament

Jack B. Rotten is my new series of Halloween pumpkins that have a rather rotten attitude. These pumpkins are just plain not so nice and don't want to be anyone's jack-o-laterns. I have several more in the works but wanted you all to see the first one. The title of this ornament is "What Kitty?"





Okay now, no hate mail from cat lovers. I too love the little fur balls but you have to admit that sometimes those fuzzy cuties can be a pest and this pumpkin wants nothing to do with Halloween or those cute little black kitties.

You can find this in my Etsy shop

Snowman - You Melt my Heart

Even a snowman needs love and when it happens his heart just melts.

My newest sculpture is a paperclay cutie! I used another one of those wonderful glass icicles I had made. I'm going to have to order more of those cause I like them soooooo much and they're fun to create with.

Hope you all enjoy and thanks for stopping by.




You can find this in my Etsy shop

Let it Snow! ornament

I just love the expression on his face, so content and happy with the new snowfall. I had some custom glass icicles made for me to add to my sculptures and I think this one looks wonderful hanging from his nose.



This will be my last ornament for this Christmas. I'm getting on a jet on Monday to fly to my folks for Christmas and New Years and Mom and I will be baking up a storm so I'll be too busy playing in flour with no time to play in clay. I will bring a sketch pad though, just so I don't lose what's left of my mind. I already have new designs swirling around in my mind and if I don't get them down on paper I'm pretty sure I'll drive my folks bananas and that really is the last thing I want to do. Mom may be much shorter than me but she can still put me in my place ... lol

HAPPY HOLIDAYS to all of you! May you and yours share goods times, love, laughter and an extra slice of pie!
