Dreamworks' Holiday Bazaar

Last night we had our Holiday Bazaar at work. I sold about 13 items and made a few dollars. This was definitely an experiment, since I've never done anything like this before. I now know that bunnies are a hot item, and that I need to add them to my Sculpey menagerie next time! The one animal I *didn't* make!

I will keep my little critters at my desk if anyone needs a last minute Christmas gift!
Here's a picture of Rebekah and I at our table last night! She makes cute terrariums!

Rainy Sunday

I created my first business card today for my earrings. I decided to call em Teenie Tines, cuz they're so little. In fact, I made my smallest creation yet, 2 wee sheep smaller than a quarter. How I did it, I haven't a clue, I just got in the zone. I'm reluctant to sell them, because they're so darn cute, but I think I won't have a problem actually having someone purchase them.
I've started to glaze a few things, just to see how it looks. I do like the matte finish but some things just look better glazed and I think it'll protect the clay and the delicate parts.

Here's the background of my business card that I whipped up today. I used Vistaprint and it was relatively inexpensive. It's the shipping that gets ya!!

Used Frankie as my logo-ish thing. I added the text on vistaprint.

Wee sheep

Some teenie weenies and an owl. I'll be selling these guys too.

What's Going On?

I've found that I've been blogging more often, I guess I have more to say? Either way here's some new additions to my little jewelry collection. I'm going to try to test the waters at work and see if I can manage to sell some of them. I'd like to sell them at DreamWorks Holiday Craft Fair, but I'm not even sure if they're having one this year.

Project

I am trying to channel my energy by diving into a jewelry project.
I've been making little critters out of Sculpey for years now but I never really did anything with them. In fact, I have an entire box of little Wiener Dogs sitting in my closet and I don't know what to do with them. Back in college I made Wiener Dogs for fun and called them Teenie Weenies but I never sold them or distributed them.

So now, I have been trying my hand at making earrings. I've made a few pairs recently and have been receiving tons of compliments so I must be doing something right!

Here's what I've done so far:

Dragons DVD Takes Off!

Hi Folks-
Dragons came out on Blu Ray/DVD last Friday and so far it's doing really well! Dave and I watched it that night on his ps3, and even took pictures of the movie on his ps3 menu. All that hard work crammed into a little digital icon on his tv screen. The movie looks fantastic on blu ray and we watched with commentary from Chris, Dean and Bonnie. Thoughts, feelings and even overwhelming anxiety/memories took over me from sequence to sequence. We all worked so hard on this film and the final result really shines through. Congrats to the whole cast n crew!
As an added bonus, we watched Boneknapper, our second labor of love. Great stuff all around. Go out and buy a copy if you get the chance!
