Here comes a Winter Wonderland!

It's now December! Here comes the snow, the joy, the laughter, the warm clothes, and family time! Also with December comes lot's of birthdays, hot coco, and for me, lot's of request's for my clay creations! I started creating figures for my grandma's birthday. I made her a little nativity. I have been made many different nativities since then and I have started to make some ornaments! I have made ornaments that aren't really the true reason of the season. I have made elves, Santas, and I have even made a Mrs. Clause! 

After I was in a boutique in October I got two orders for some elf ornaments. They asked for both boys and girls. I have never made boy elves before so this was a new experience! I had a very fun time with it and I loved it! Here is an image of the four elves I made. I really liked how it turned out!

The first time I ever used clay was at my friend Sophie's house. She had some of the no-bake clay and we spent many times playing with different creations over at her house.

Later we were thinking about a Birthday present for my grandma and my mom asked me to make my grandma a nativity because she loves them! I accepted the challenge and I produced a pretty cool thing and discovered a new talent! I really enjoy creating clay creations and I love it when my artwork makes someone smile! I am going to post a few more pictures of some of my other clay creations but not all of them. if you would like to see more go and look at my Art Gallery. I just started posting pictures so there isn't too many artworks up yet but there will be more soon!

  3. You are so talented. I've tried to make things out of clay, but they end up looking like a pile of mush. I can't wait to see more of your amazing creations. If possible, I would love a girl elf. They are so cute!

  4. Allie, you are such a good artist! I loved that you shared how you got started on making clay creations. Just to let you know my mom loved the nativity that I got from the boutique! :) Keep up the good work Allie!
