Well kind of. The mastermind behind these superb FIMO creatures has made a series of them for her friends as xmas presents. She will also be taking orders in the NEw Year. I am impressed by these, so maybe you might be also. Do spread the word
Our garden is an eco-system, well thats the opinion of the teacher at our daughter’s school and in fact applies to all the form who have a garden. Thinking about it we have foxes, bees, hedgehogs and numerous other invaders and visitors. Compost is made and goes on the soil, an oak tree grown from an acorn from Wisley Gardens, apple tree and so on. Anyway whilst photographing this melee of activity today ( whose homework is it?) I met some large and curious spiders. The garden spider is alive and well in New Malden. What however is interesting and there may be a simple reason, is why hardly any of these exist at Wisley RHS gardens? any clues?

FIMO modelling has become a common hobby amongst the young. There is a lot of inherent skill but also children share their skills and tips via making charm update videos. Here are a few examples of what the 12 year old has made over the last week. Enjoy and visit her You Tube Channel and spread the word please.
FIMO is a brand of polymer clay that one buys in little brick sizes not much larger than a matchbox. All colours. Recently the 12-year old has got heavily into making small models. Gradually she has become more adept and uses scalpels, watches YouTube tutorial videos and generally more proficient. She now has become excellent at making these tiny models each around 2 inches tall maximal. Today she has produced various little cakes. a narwhal, HelloKitty cupcakes and other interesting little items. Here are a few samples of her work. Do spread the word.
