A paper mache humpback whale sculpture surrounded by houseplants against a white background. The whale is green and grey, similar to weathered stonework covered in moss.

A closeup photo of the surface of a moss green paper mache whale, with barnacles and wrinkled, sea-worn skin.

Another humpback whale in the making! Working on a mossy stone look for this one.

Sculpted from paper mache, painted with acrylics 💚

Photo collage of textiles art dolls. They are all different, all a bit strange. Some have heads sculpted in paperclay.

Handmade art dolls inspired by folk art.
Each character is unique and designed to look wonderfully weird and perfectly imperfect 🌿

Thank you, it's gonna be an exciting time! 🥹

Thank you!! :)

And on the househunting front, it's starting to look pretty likely that in a few months we will be able to move to a lil riverside village in Scotland! 🥳

(It's where my husband and I got married a few years back, so we have very fond memories of the area :))

Thank you! :) The ears are often my favorite part to make ahaha

Aww thank you!! 😄

Thank you!! Just remembered how fun your pup updates are so had to go check what they've been up to, they always seem to be having such a great time with you 😄

Two gremlin art dolls who might be siblings wearing bright, multicolored polka-dot clothes with circus vibes. They are made from paper mache, clay, and spun cotton, with clothes sewn from fabric scraps. One of them is taller than the other and holds a purple balloon; the smaller gremlin wears striped stockings and a circle skirt. They are standing on a wooden shelf in front of houseplants, dried flowers, and other decor.

Hi again friends!! 🌱🐛

It's been a busy spring, with house hunting taking a lot of time and energy - fingers crossed that's sorted now, and I can get back to more regular gremlinposting 😌 I've really missed the vibes on here!

These two are made from paper mache, spun cotton, and fabric scraps. 💕

a drawing of lots of goblins of all different varieties

These are my best goblins at the moment

A cute little blade made by creatures of the Fey. With silver/gold details and a shiny "rose quartz" rhinestone as the pommel. Handmade - therefore be aware all thew will look slightly different from each other and have a unique touch. Info: - Each prop is handmade, so they are all unique. - The sword is approximately 12 cm. long. 4.7 inches - Made of wire and fusible film (which are partially transparent and looks a bit like glass). It has blue and red shades. Meant for decoration or as a bookmark.

It's Spring 🌸

a round necklace on a chain with the side view of a squirrel formed from copper that has been darkened with an artistic patina. It's resting on a dried red oak leaf, and there is snow on the ground in the background creating a white mottled look under the tree.

For #makersMARTch theme #flash, I love how the evening sunlight caught the edges of this rustic squirrel necklace, reflecting off the metal similarly to how some artificial flashes might 🌰🍂

Based on the red squirrel, Tamiasciurus hudsonicus

Draft of a woodcarved humanoid crow wearing a hooded cloak, shoulder armor. Its left hand rest on the handle of its sword. The arm has a more detailed clothing texture than before.

Really happy about how I managed to assemble the arm and the folds of the cloth. I think I will work on the bottom part before making the right arm.

Thank you!! 🥰

Questioning Alice - paperclay and paper mache over wire armature book sculpture by Lynn Wartski. Alice's face and dots on fungus have text from Alice in Wonderland.

This.

Seeing sketch lines in hand drawn animation. Seeing fingerprints in claymation. It's like hearing the faint sound of the hand moving over the strings of a guitar when someone is playing. Small imperfections are signs of life.

Makes me so happy to know they're in a loving home! 😄🥰

🥹 Aww so glad to see this lil guy made it, and thanks so much for the kind words!! 💜

Unboxing the package to find a beautifully wrapped parcel with lavender tissue paper tied with teal and burgundy raffia

A card that reads Hi Rayna, Congratulations!! Hope this little creature finds its way to you safely and hope it brightens your day a bit during these otherwise quite unsettling times. Wishing you a warm and sunny spring. Anni from Crumplings.

Over the last few weeks, I've been working on interpretations of the air, water, and earth elementals. This week, it's the turn of fire. So, meet Spark, a salamander (the elemental spirit, not the cute little amphibian) This little one is now available at spyderthread.com #dollmaking #handmade #art

A brown and grey bird with a russet breast stands over a cone of berries. The bird's beak is open and it seems to have dropped one of the berries.

American robin (Turdus migratorius).

Fingers crossed! 💜
