Wisdom Tooth ~ Sweet Tooth

Posted on April 21, 2014 by nancywalker

now these are weird …

not for the faint of heart or squeemish…

these are Creepy Cool so hang on to your hats

Here we go

a bowl full of teeth!

now don’t fret because I made them myself

from porcelain clay, I’m a potter, remember?

They are knitting stitch markers, you can use them to mark where you are in your knitting pattern, they make knitting easy and enjoyable because they tell you when you need to change your pattern, they are kind of like being on cruise control … in knitting

I was just looking to make something a little EDGY

and these are …

look closely, there is a gold cap on one of them

one could even use them as a Brooch, which someone I know does

I’m selling these in my Etsy shop (my shameless plug) and they come in this cool tin box

Wisdom Tooth is the one with the gold Tooth

Sweet Tooth are, well, 6 sweet teeth!

Modeling

Posted on December 2, 2013 by nancywalker

I have mentioned this before but I don’t like posing for and modeling the things I knit on Ravelry or modeling the shawl pins I’ve been making. Maybe I am camera shy …..I have recently made a new line of coloured pins and …. ya … here we go again. I have to show them in play.

Last time dear Matilda came to my rescue and I will hire her again, but I thought there should be a new look.

Years ago I was made a series of female clay vases. They could hold flowers that looked like colourful ideas and creativity coming out of their heads, I saw them as putting forth new ideas, not as containers for a flower arrangement, and that is a big difference.

Well, they I suddenly saw them again as I was dreading going before the camera. Yes! They could model for me! They would be delighted! So with a little playing around with photoshop/photoshopping… not only did they model for me, they could go anywhere, I could play with the backgrounds.
