Make-it Mondays: Pets of Etsy

Finally...one of you has a dog! Thank you Susan, of sculptresslink, for sharing our latest studio creature, Smokey. Susan adopted Smokey from the the Humane Society while she lived in Arizona, procuring her Masters degree in Art Education. She is a worldy assistant who has traveled with her studio boss from Arizona, to Arkansas and now to Rochester, New York. Check her out!

At sixteen, this pooch is still working it, as a model for Susan's creations. In this case, a cupcake barrette.

Sitting expectantly, in the hopes that some polymer clay will drop from Susan's hands and onto the floor. (She thinks it's food.)

Thank the craft lords that the cat spell has been broken! Keep your pets coming, by sending images and a lil' story to buenahelena@hotmail.com.
