It's summer

Well summer is officially here, walking out of the house feels a lot like walking into an oven. So I stayed in and worked a bit. I'm finishing a couple of clay houses, they'll be in a set of two houses and a tree, I have two houses and two trees that need varnishing and I remade the mermaid earrings.
On the left is the pair that was ruined during varnishing, you can see the white color appearing from under the blue and honestly it looks a lot worse than the photo, like it's whitewashed. On the right the pair that I made yesterday and started varnishing today, the color stayed where it should, yay :-)
Remember the paper rockets we made? The nephew loved that project and we made some more when we came back from our Easter holiday. And now I found this fantastic tutorial on flying carp fish, it's going on my "must try it" list!
Wishing you a great Sunday and a productive week to come,

Mermaid earrings

The european street team challenge is hosted by Gia from oneperfectday. For the theme she chose mermaids and my take on this is this pair of earrings. Painted in blue, green and turquoise with white scales they look like mermaid's skin. I really liked the theme and had so much fun making them!
They are now listed in the shop, right here :-)
