I've put scrappaper beneath the windows, and the windowsills are ready to be put in, but first I had to glue the acryllic glass back in again. But the glue I used reacted with the acryllic glass, didn't glue, became runny and left white stains on it... In other words: the glass is ruined. In the proces I pushed a window ornament out (easy to fix) and broke one of the hinges of the door (beyond repairing). So I need new glass and hinges, before I can go further here.
I thought I could make some small creatures of Fimo, to live in the garden. Here they are:
A hanging mouse:
A mouse on a pin (to put on a stem of a plant or flower):
A dragonfly (only 5 mm in lenght, with 6 legs and musquito-wings!):
A mole:
And 5 snails:
Yes, I did say 5, I did make 5, but one never made it to the oven (was found in my hair (?) later), and the other two with real snail-houses didn't survive my clumsyness... (see first picture) As I said, this week was not a good week for me to work in miniature.They all need a bit of paint and some need some flock, but even the mega-scrap-shop nearby didn't have that, did not even know it exists. Thank God for webshops! Now I just have to wait till the postman brings me my glass, hinges and flock (and the other nice stuff I saw in those webshops ;) ).
Have a nice week!
Marit

How wonderful! The animals are made with incredible skill ...
Imagine if this was not a good week to create miniatures :-)
The snails are adorable.
A big hug, Flora
The little creatures are wonderful! And I know the feeling when almost everything goes wrong, I usually stop there and let everything be alone for a couple of days :)
Great job. So small. So cute!
Brilliant!! I love the snails.
Your tiny garden creatures are DIVINE, Marit! I agree with the others.....if this was a not good week...! But I know what you mean with all the other things going wrong.... thank heavens for the web shops! I can't wait to see your creatures finished!
Yeah, I know the feeling!!! But, on the other hand, if this wasn't your best week, I wouldn't want to know what you would do in your good weeks... Your little creatures are fantastic. I've just done some fimo work, but don't think I would be able to do it soooo small. Look at the details! You must have real good eye sight. Well done.
Oh dear, rotten luck re the windows. I really like the paper under the sill.
And those little creatures are wonderful!!
Your sculpted creatures are so magnificent! You are very skilled! :D
