Terrariums are back in style. Of course in this group we aren't content having a regular old terrarium and want something a little 'different'! This swap is for miniature items to place in mini gardens or any other place you desire. No green thumb necessary!! We will each send one partner five handmade accessories to hang out in a terrarium. Please send your partner a variety of items and not just five of the same thing. Remember, these are miniatures. Items should be between 1 - 2 inches. These types of items can easily be created using polymer clay. Remember to bake a wire in the center for planting, and finish it with a matte or gloss glaze. However, this swap is not limited to polymer clay objects. If you can make it, you can send it! (Just remember many of us will be planting these objects in mini gardens, so it is helpful if the objects are waterproof). Possible object ideas *mushrooms ~ all shapes and colors/species * tentacles * gravestones ~ all shapes * mini skulls and bones * mini pumpkins * surreal and bizarre 'plants' * hand (to come up from a mini grave site) * little crows and ravens And more!!! Check out this website on how to make a haunted cemetery terrarium and polymer clay gravestones: If you have any other cool ideas please post them below. Rules: 4.9+, no recent 1's or 3's |
