After the mass Firefox download lately /fighting for a world record/, I decide that it is in fact a good moment to show you this:

I’ve made it about year and a half ago, but It was finished this January (and you can see it today, which is… yes, yes, I know the date, please, don’t remind me…)
There’s a magnet on the back, only… I didn’t weight very well the clay logo itself and now you can put it somewhere only if you use another magnet, bigger one. Next time - better try.

However, I am not so good as to invent it and design it like his author did, but still I believe it is not so bad.

Here’s what happened with this guy after dyeing. I’m not quite sure If I like it more now or before, but however, it’s too late to hesitate.

Indeed, it’s likeable now, in its own way somehow. It was year and a half lingering, till finally I decided to finish it. Not bad, actually?

The next few blog posts will be mainly with pictures. I brushed out the dust from what I’ve got to show and take the big decision of not! procrastinate! anymore!

In my defense will say only that I didn’t have good enough photos and it was a shame to upload crappy ones here. Then we lost the hard disk and the few good photos are gone so far.

But three days ago I have success with catching the best light - late sunset, which is adorable, but hardly impossible to see in north apartment. So I made quickly part of the photos that I wanted to.
For a start, here it is, a snail-optimist, fruit of co-operative work:

Actually, Michel is always jumping around while I am making something, and he is repeating that he cannot do such things even in his dreams.

In fact, he was totally awake when he made this snail, and I think he did it just great. My touch are only the horns with eyes and the coloring, but from all the little things at home, this snail is one of particularly special!

Half a year ago, my lovely and unpredictable better-half gave me such a greeting card.

I laughed out loudly, when I first saw it, and it is still on a very honorable place at home. Sometimes I look at it and I smile (mostly because of the comparison).

Edward Monkton’s cards are all wonderful, actually. Look at them closely.

My potatoes’ affection, though, won’t stop just like that. Here is one, adopted recently:

Just look at his placid face, but don’t trust him too much…

Turn my back for only two minutes, and he’ll probably eat the whole cactus…

One need only to have nervous fingers and five minutes rest…to start doing something from paper. I’ve started to make these little angels last year in November in the office.
Few colleagues still have some to make them smile. And even artishock got one.

I love to remind to myself, that life is not only work. I left this cup with stars in my ex-office, only completely full.

These are very easy to make…if you like them, see how-to. Warning: once you start, you may never stop.

One very special and fairy girl recently showed to me how to make this flower:

There is more to show, but next time.

We’ve made our eggs yesterday…They look nice, even if only few, but initially I thought they were a bit… too anonymous. So, finally, most of them received personality. Happy Easter!:-)
