Hello dear readers,
I'm out of walnuts shells. From the last ones at hand, I made some nativity and winter scenes.
I'll continue with the fairy-tales scenes when I get the new, fresh nuts.
All three have a snowman on one half and a little house with snow-covered trees on
another half.
The pine trees are cut and trimmed green shades pipe-cleaners.
Made the easiest, most simple, working miniature candles today. Used a leftover birthday candle. Dipped a cutter in hot water in order not to crumble the delicate candle and cut it into 6 or more pieces. By rolling when cutting the wicker is left undamaged. Used a red nail polish to paint one piece and got me a Christmas candle.
I always admire the incredible miniature crochet works on the blogs and cherish all the mini crochet treasures I received as gifts. It's wonderful to see what can be achieved by using threads, a hook and talented fingers.
You will probably be as awed as I am by Stephanie Pokorny's works. She is a crochet artist who made nine Halloween costumes for her kids. If you want to see more Here WOW!
I wish you all happy crafting with blessings.

I'm always in love with your nutshell scenes and this time is of course no exception. Wonderful work on these supertiny scenes - and do I have to mention at all that I adore these teenytiny snowmen? ;O) Thanks for sharing this clever way to make real tiny candles - and even more for introducing this fantastic artist to us. This is incredible work, especially the monster costume from Alien will get this little boy filled Trick-or-treat-bags for sure.

You're going to need to employ some help getting and eating more nuts! Each new batch is more precious than the last! Mary, Joseph and Jesus are wonderful! Adorable snowman, too!
ReplyDeleteThe crochet costumes are truly works of art! Those kids must be so excited and looking for every opportunity to wear them as many times as they can! I hope they are offering mom lots of hugs and hand rubs for her amazing work!

ReplyDeleteI love the tiny nutshel snowmen. We don't have wallnut trees here in Sout Africa but I'm assuming the right time to harvest them is autumn. You should have a fresh crop to work with soon!
