Paperclay Santa

I know you've all been dying to see what I created in my paperclay class! (I know, it has been on your minds for weeks now...giggle.) I finally finished my Santa and I must say that I'm quite proud of the little dude.

First, here is a pic of me and Jenny Hernandez of The Polka Dot Pixie. She did a marvelous job teaching the class. I give her 2 thumbs up.

I know that it appears that I am 7 feet tall. I am actually 5'10 and I happen to be wearing 3 inch heeled boots. I'm really not a giant. Really.


Here I am working on my sculpting.


And here is the finished project! Isn't he adorable? Don't you just want to hug him?


Here's a close-up of his face.


Check out his stripey socks and his cute little elf boots.


A picture of his hiney. He's got nothing to hide. The glue was still wet when I took these pictures so that is why the mica flakes look more white than usual.


I had an absolute blast making him. I've got many more paperclay people designing themselves in my brain right now. So you'll be seeing a lot more in the future...
