new website

I am in the process of building a new website.. I've never been happy with the old look but dealt with it anyway. I am excited now because I found some awesome tutorials to help me understand my GIMP program to edit photos & such! I hope to have the website completed by next week... I just need to stop changing my mind on colors! LOL!

I have one glass ball that is still useable and I'm trying to make a little merbaby to 'float' inside. Having problems on my sculpting technique though.. I think I need to watch a refresher video or something! LOL!

Epic in mini proportions

I have been thinking & working on a grand idea for awhile now & have finally accomplished a seemingly impossible task! To put a sculpted baby into a glass ball ornament. Here is the baby before assembling to the base....

Here is the baby attached to it's base to make it appear 'floating' or sitting on it's bottom...

I am so very excited to have accomplished this seemingly impossible task!! woohoo!! It really took a lot of my energy and time but it was worth it. Now I am scared to post it to ebay ..what if it cracks during shipping?? And what if it doesn't sell?? I'll post an update when I put up the video of it and it's ebay listing.
