BTW

Wow, it's been some time since I've joined in BTW.
 I thought about it last week but it was nearly Friday so...
But it's actually Wednesday so here you go!

More new Shapes and Textures


Still need to be cleaned up before I fire them, hopefully tonight but if not tomorrow for sure!


Both pair of the new Owl Crescents I made a few days ago sold quickly
 so I'm making a whole flock of them.
They are 5 pair available for Pre-Order in my Etsy Shop.

Playing with new shapes

I created some new shapes on Scratch Foam, new shapes and new textures to go with them.

These remind me of those Alaskan Ulu knifes, I'll have to think of something else to call them because I'm pretty sure I can't call them Ulu unfortunately.



Here are some Arrowheads.



And I made this Tribal Mask, inspired by some other masks I saw on Pinterest.
I think he's adorable!




Lots more you'll see in my shop in the near future.
