21st Annual Creatin’ Contest : The Elven Bowyer

Good day fine folks of the world!

Today was the deadline of the Miniatures.com  21st Annual Creatin Contest. I expect you to see a few entries about the Internet via blogs today.

I will post a couple of shots here on this front page and if you look on the top of my blog you will see a new link for more photos:

If you remember I did the Elven house with paper clay and kind of left it to collect dust and then I got all quiet about it. Well I decided to go full force and create another Elven Styled building for this build.

You know me I love fantasy so what could hold more imagination than a Elven Bowyer. A bowyer is a craftsman who makes bows and in this instance The Elven Bowyer has done it for centuries.

So you will see bits and pieces from swaps from fine friends about, everything is of course handmade, Bows, tools, furniture..bits bashed or renewed.

I give you the Elven Bowyer:





If you have any questions feel free to post them below. I will share info, tips or take a request of two on tutorials.

Fair complete, contest house done, gifts at my door!! : Jane happy ;)

Good day folk of the globe!

Its been a busy, crazy few weeks here, this season is busy for a lot of us I see ;)

I attended the little fair and brought my goodies I showed you over the last few weeks sold a few boxes, journals, jewelry a few mini scenes even sold!! Overall it went well and I enjoyed the experience and found that there are folks in my community who love minis!!

I finished up my miniatures.com contest house and submitted it, its all about crossing the fingers at this point!!  I have made a tab at the top called 21st-annual-creatin-contest for the photos and will be adding them over the next couple of days.

I also received some wondrous gifts from fine mini friends and I would like to show you the kindness I received ;)

Here is a shot from Brigit and Melli showing the cards and gifts I received from these lovely ladies!

Here is the tiniest elf you will ever see, he is so detailed and perfect! It only shows you how fantastic Melli is at clay which I am sure most of you know already!

OMG Sooooo cute!

Here are some of the goodies I received from Brigit, I know some of you folks are getting packs from her, your a fantastic lady Brigit!

I love these wood cut pieces they are so detailed and would make wonderful signs and detail pieces for a fireplace mantle! The little toys and yummy gingerbread are perfect.

Here is a special piece she sent me for my Sorceress Tower, it is filled with starts and displays changing colors, just....so beautiful and full of magic! She creates wonderful magical minis in her shop as well.

Thank you so much Brigit and Melli for thinking of me and sending me such wonderful and thoughtful gifts for the season! I love them!!
BIG HUGS!!
__________________________________________

I thought I would show you a few of the scenes I created for the fair as well, those of you who have been with me in blog land over the last few years will recognise some of these old minis I did years ago.. Hold on to them..even if they were not your best at some point you certainly can reuse them!!




This little hobbit house desktop garden was oohed over a few times but did not sell. I might add it to my shop since I think its a great little scene.

I mean LITTLE its a 6 inch dish!!
Happy and healthy holidays to you all!! I hope the season brings you creativity and joy!
