Hello and Welcome to my Blog ~ I love art of all kinds. Two of my favorites are polymer clay and paper art. I have shops on Etsy that feature both of my passions. I also love writing my blog and finding artists that have a passion for their craft and feature them. I hope your day is filled with sunshine, laughter and loads of creativity.

A TAD Every Day!

For the past three years, for the month of February, Polymer Clay Central has been creating a Thing A Day (TAD). This is my first year and I had a wonderful time with it.

Now let me tell you, with all that one has to do, sometimes it's hard to come up with a TAD, but I am proud of myself and ended up at the finish line. ** A big Yay for me**


Here are a few of the TAD's
that I created:

Meet Prince Fallon who is madly in love with Princess Farra. The prince is doomed however to marry someone he has never met. His parents had arranged for him to be married on his twenty-first birthday. As the prince stands waiting for his bride-to-be, he notices something oddly familiar as she walks toward him. Could it be...he wondered. The bride stood beside him heavily veiled and much taller than his beautiful Farra. Broken hearted he finished his vows, turned to his bride, lifted her veil and found that it was his one and only love ~ Princess Farra.

Okay, so that was a hokey story, told a million times before. I just couldn't resist telling it again. (LOL)

I have always loved roses and try as I might, I couldn't make one worth a plug nickle. Well, I practiced and practiced and finally was able to make some that looked fairly decent . These little fairy houses were my guinea pigs. So here they are in all their glory showing off my roses.

I have also created some Imps. Kinda cute little creatures,
at least their mothers think so.





At the end of the evening, I was anxious to look at everyone's creations . Some were a work in progress and I had to wait a day or two to see the finished creation. That was a lot of fun.

One of the things I love about TAD is that it broadens your creativity and you must really think about different things you might like to create. All in all, this has been a wonderful experience for me.

Love this post, and I just love all your wonderful TAD creations!!! Your Imps are darling and the Fairy Houses are beautiful, and the 'Happily Ever After' Prince and Princess are great! I think you are going to miss TAD ~ You will just have to create a Thing A Day from now on! :)

I really enjoyed seeing all the TAD creations by everyone at PCC as the month went by! I might have to join in next year!!

So glad you joined in with Thing A Day this year, Sandy! It is always difficult but so rewarding if you can manage every single day. (like I wasn't able to! Darn it!). Your TAD's were so cute and fun, it was great to have you in on it this year. Looking forward to next year!!
