Gosh! never thought I would get such comments, I love to make something from nothing, and the cheaper the better, I will try and answer everyone if I miss you its because Iam not use to such praise and my head is spinding. cheri I live in a small town named portsmouth, where are you from in oh? I tried doing a craft show years ago, didnt do well so never tried agine, tammy no the basket is something I found at the flemarket, its tall with a wooden lid that has a leather handle that can be hung up. terri the springs are recycled and I have the cuts to prove it, what a job it is takeing them apart, ruthinont the cinnamonbuns are saltdough, rolled out sprinkle with cinnamon rolled up and sliced and baked, I use dimenional paint like iceing , makes them look real. luvtocraft the snowman is a clear jug spray painted white, then I spounge white paint over, the eyes are buttons cant remenber what the nose is,theres a hole drilled in the back for the light cord, hubby does the drilling. sal thanks for your comments and thanks to all who has posted you guys sure have given me a big head

thanks oddie

Beautiful. I think you shouldn't give up on shows- maybe the one you did was just not a good one!! Are your gingerbread men also saltdough,or muslin and could you please share your saltdough recipe. Thanks!! S,

hi and thank you for comments,the gingerbread man in this post is wood, hubby made for me, the one in my other post that shows a christmas basket is made of saltdough hes kinda small and hard to see in the photo. I use 1c of salt.1c flour and 1/2 c water, after mixing I put dough in a ziplock bag and let it set out for a couple of days seems to roll out better after setting, I am sure theres a reason why but dont know. you guys have given me the confidence to want to try a craftshow maybe next year!
Thanks oddie

Oddie,
your work is beautiful
I agree, you should find a good show .
I do lots of Christmas shows and from
what I have seen , your crafts are
outstanding, you should sell out if
your prices are competitive.

Oddie, these ladies are right--your crafts should sell like hotcakes! So very cute and all the details you've added just make them look so special and "Professional".

Are your stacking snowmen paper mache boxes or are they cans? I couldn't quite tell which they were. What a cute idea.

I can tell you enjoy creating things. I've really enjoyed seeing your projects. Feel like I've been to a little craft show--and you know how we all love that feeling! LOL

Thanks agine for your comments you guys sure dish out the praises, the stacked snowman are wood, my hubby was playing with a log one day and cut each layer you see out of the log each getting smaller, he showed it to me and right away I saw a snowman, Jackie I have wanted to post and tell you I think your work is beauiful! I have alot of other ideas we can all chat about as soon as my head goes back to normal.

thanks agine oddie

I just had to log in and say what beautiful things you have made. If I may ask, what is the head of the snowman on the springs made of? Do you sell any of your things?
Please post more of your crafts, I would love to see them.
You should do a show,whit what you make, as someone else said I would think they would sell like hotcakes.

And PS-- the way you've done the photos is great-- such a feeling of holiday atmosphere!
