The Magic Coach



Can you see me in here ? I am waiting on my driver...






I had such fun creating this Magic Coach. It is completely handmade by me.. After I formed the coach and allowed to dry, I cut the opening for the door.



I used a pod from rose potpourri for the door and a faux pearl for the knob.. This wee little mouse is hand sculpted of polymer clay and fur has been applied in tiny pieces.. I made a seat for her and attached her to it.. That was a challenge but I did not want her to fall off her seat along the way... I covered the coach in pale pink micro beads, embellished with ribbon, wood piece that I painted silver and hand formed wire stand and top.

Wishing everyone a beautiful week.

Love and blessings,

Penny

  14. Good Morning Sweet Penny...
    Oh what a beautiful Cinderella inside her little coach. I can see her in there. She is so darn cute and happy as can be in her little sanctuary. I absolutely adore her. You did such a magnificent job on this one. I don't know how you do it, but each one just keeps growing with excitement. (I have a feeling that your mind never sleeps, you create in your dreams.)

    Thank you for sharing sweet one. So beautiful indeed. Hope you are doing well. I think of you each time I walk by my beauty. She brings me smile after smile. Many hugs and so much love, Sherry

  23. Penny Good to hear from you. I thought of you when I was shearing Sophia, ( that was her), and the wonderful things you have made from her wool. I bet your roses are looking great this year? I am so proud of mine, I have so many huge pink heritage roses, I actually used them for cut flowers and I NEVER do that!
