Baby's Breath Ball - DIY

The making of a baby's breath ball for Spring:
I tied some mesh hemp around the styrofoam to allow for easy hanging.  After that, I used wire cutters to cut some fake white flowers and place them pretty close to the styrofoam (to cover up the ugly green color of the styrofoam).  I then cut up the baby's breath and delicately poked the stems into the styrofoam... it now feels like Spring in our apartment.

Clay Easter Eggs


This past weekend I decorated Easter eggs with different colored polymer clay; I hollowed out the eggs, pressed some clay delicately in different patterns, and baked in the oven at 350* for a few minutes.  After the eggs were hard, I simply painted them with shellac and let them dry.  The process is not only fun but the eggs come out great and they last forever!
