Happy Weekend, Everyone!
Here's a fun tutorial for you...
I thought my Fairy Houses needed a little more "Fae" element about them,
so what better than teeny-tiny shoes left by the front door?
♥
Easy-peasy, too ~ honest!

All you need are some little smidgeons of clay, a needle-tool, and a paintbrush
(or something similar) with a narrow, round-tipped handle.
Mica powder (I like Pearl Ex) is fun, too, if you have it.

BTW, at this point I used a drop of liquid polymer clay
to stick the shoes together...you don't have to, of course,
but it makes them easier to keep up with and to position them "just so".
Don't tell the Fairies this, though.
It would be like when you buy Walmart shoes that are fastened together
with one of those plastic thingies, and then you can't put them
on until you get home and cut it off.
(Unless the cashier has scissors.)
This won't come off, though, so it could be a real deal-breaker for the Fae.

Bake at 275° for 30 minutes.
That's all there is to it!
(Disclaimer: You may become hooked and have to make all color combinations...;^) ~)

ReplyDeletePrudence is up in the craft room working on taking those fairy shoes and making them for our little mini bears.
Happy Saturday and thank you again.
Of course you need little fairy slippers by the door. They are just so delightful to see.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tutorial.

ReplyDeleteWhat cute little shoes! Nice brooch, too. I am in awe of your talent, Anne.
ReplyDeleteYour fairie creations are a work of art and so enjoyable to look at. What do you do with all of them? Your house must have a lot of color around it everywhere. I love the tutorial even though I have no plans to use polymer clay. The broach is lovely. All your work is lovely. Thank you for sharing the beauty with your blog loving public.
ReplyDeleteYou are so creative and talented! I love the little fairy shoes and look forward to more fairy houses. Soooo adorable!

There truly is 'magic' in these lovely shoes--How sweet they are, and you've made it look effortless, but as I always say to you, if I made them, they WOULD look like shoes that no fairy would ever want to wear! :-)
