I made Xmas gift for friends ☆

I have previously posted some presents I made. So I won't include those pictures in this post. If you wanna see the post click here.

This year I made everything keychain and mystery box themed.  Tho I haven't taken picture of the blind boxes (sacks really) I made.

In the first pic on the left is the fish keychain right below it.

Here's how I innitially planned the layout for the Miffy keychain. It was my first time making one, so I kinda messed up and had to improvise. But in the end it turned out alright!

Here are the mini mystery box figurines!! It was my first time sculpting with polymer clay. My favourite one is the yellow flowery one. He even has leafs on his back which resemble wings :]

I additionally made mini charms for each sculpture, but unfortunately for you I didn't take a picture before packing them up. Honestly it was so much effort, in addition to have to take presentable pictures.

Allow me to ramble a bit, this is the reason why I don't like posting on ig or other social media where you're encouraged to film every breath you take. It gets so exhausting for me, and strips me off the joy of the creative process.

So tiny,

Lastly, all the way back in the beggining of November. I made these xmas cards using nailpolish. I didn't want to throw away the colors I don't wear, so I decided to create something instead.

Needless to say, my room smelled awful. I hadn't realized just how strong the acetone odor would be. I had to open all the doors and windows in the house.

Here I'd let them dry on the balcony. I used a varnish meant for watercolor paintings. I used that to secure the coloring of the tiny figures as well.

I think it worked well, otherwise the nailpolish would've flaked off of the paper. When it came to figures, the varnish would dry longer, than I expected. It took somewhere between a few days to a week I think. That's probably cuz it accumulated in the crevises of the figurines.

Thanks for viewing all the way :o] — I hope you'll have a nice christmas!! ☆
