Stuff for Cakes!

In February I did quite a bit of clay for cakes. I had a customer whose son wanted a frog cake for his 6th bday party. Just plain ol' green frogs and he likes the colors yellow & orange so I  incorporated those colors. He also is a boy so flies were cool to have on the cake also!
I built the frog armatures from lightweight super sculpey & then covered them in premo/fimo. The sticks in their feet poke into the cake to support the toppers & help them stand straight.

The birthday boy was pretty happy with the frogs. At least that's what his mom told me!


Then I made a little cake topper that I sold on Etsy. Its an owl & a single birthday candle fits in the top of his hat. His legs are wooden & painted in stripes. I even put little holes in the bottom of his feet so that toothpicks can be inserted &  poked into the cake. 

Then lastly I had a request to make 2 mermaids in green/hot pink & green/orange with flat backs to be glued onto wooden numbers that would be the cake topper. She also wanted the two little starfish. They are about 1.5 inches & the mermaids were about 2.5 inches tall.

It's been awhile...I am soo bad!

Ok guys.. I know I have been really bad at staying on top of this.
The good news is I will be forced to now.. I went to update my website & found that my program on my lap top is messed up & some stuff is corrupted so I cant update my website and I have to start it all over again!
So...I am thinking about giving up my dot com and just using this blog and facebook to show my newest creations and take orders via email. Any suggestions or ideas about this? Input is always good!
Here is a new owl..just for bead eye candy!
