started the christmas crafting Wink
ive seen a fair few of these around and loved the idea. finally got around to trying my hand at this Smiley i originally planned to use metal hooks but i couldnt find any where locally that sold them, and was too impatient to order them online (you guys know what its like when you get a certain project in your head... Embarrassed ) i was a little worried that the wood would swell and crack the clay but i kept the clay reasonably thick and used minimal water when sanding the finished pieces and they turned out just fine  Smiley







i ended up covering the sizes with clay so i need to add those with a sharpie (thankfully i kept a note of which colour was which size...im not usually this organized Huh ) im pleased with these though, i might have to make a few more...im sure its not right that the spots outnumber the stripes...
