Hello dear readers,

It is such a relief working with nutshells only. Less mess.
I don't remember when my home looked tidier.

Despite the big demand for gnomes and their homes,
and in order not to get bored, I want to try making tiny fairy tales scenes. Becoming an "expert" on tiny trees, I already have enough for the woods or forests where some of the story plots take place. Why is it that fairy tales are stories for children? How can a young child not be frightened and horrified when he learns that granny was swallowed by the bad wolf?...

My first attempt is Goldilocks and the Three Bears











Witches are also very popular.  Made two new ones and cats, which already have owners. More on their way.








We are having some very hot summer days. The Fimo clay became too soft, I had to cool it in the
fridge in order to be able to shape the figures.

I hope everyone was able to have a nice, enjoyable summer vacation and is happy to start
crafting again. All the best to you with blessings!

  1. Oh Drora! Your little bears and Goldilocks are
    just adorable! It is a marvel how you can work in such a small scale! I love your idea for fairytale themes, and can't wait to see what else you make for the characters!
    The witch and pumpkins are so full of personality, too, and I believe you are a tiny tree expert!

  13. I really love the variety of possibilities a nutshell offers - at least if it's a nutshell being held in your talented hands. Your witchy shells are too cute - and it's absolutely incredible how you've managed to bring the tale of Goldilocks and the 3 Bears into a nutshell. Wonderful work - and still... so many possibilities… I'm looking forward to see your next ideas.

    Hugs
