Customised Clay Workshop for a friends-get-together activity

Most of the time when we meeting up some friends are usually for a drink, a meal, go for movies etc. My friends and I made it something different. Attending clay workshop as a get-together activity. My friends know i teach clay craft and few of them are quite interested to find out more about this handicraft , so they decided to organise a clay craft class (of coz the instructor would be me :P ) just last weekend. I asked them what exactly they want to make. One of them has a cute little dog picture and suggested to make this dog. Before the class begin, i have made a sample so they will have a better idea how it will looks like as a figurine. We talked and laughed as all of them are first timer, you will see all sorts of funny shape of doggy being created by each of them. All of us enjoyed the moment and of course planning to have another workshop session soon. What they want to learn next? They told me they want to make Doraemon. :P

So if you and your friends are clay craft lovers and would like to get together in a small group for some activities. I am sure attending a clay moulding workshop will be one of a ideal get together moment.

The Hair Stylist Figurine made from Polymer Clay.

What kind of gift do you usually buy to congratulate a friend who is going to open a new shop? a Grand Opening Stands? Hampers? Wine? Well, we have a customer who approached us just 2 weeks ago and she would like to give her friend a caricature figurine as a gift for his new hair saloon grand openings.

She shared with me her friend's picture but have no idea what shall the figurine style should be. So we gave her some ideas and she is okay with it. And here is how the figurine looks like. A guy with black attire ( that's usually the attire colour the hair stylist will wear).

Sweet Little Girl Card Holder

Bought a polymer clay book and notice there is a little girl figurine looks kinda cute and adorable. So decided to make one. Instead of just a figurine, i decided to add more little things and make it a card or picture holder. Those little things such those colourful candies has made this card holder more colourful and personally i like it. Not sure about you all. Comments are always welcome as this is how we can improve ourselves. I also taught my students to make this and they enjoy it and I can see their smile when they see their finished clay project. That's made me happy too and brighten up my day. Here I shared the one I made and the last picture is done by one of my student - Keisha.
