Progress on Pandora

This is how far I have got to with my Pandora. I have a feeling I will have to reglue the arms again with a different glue as I feel that super glue is not good enough to hold it properly. I have to also repair one of her fingers which I managed to break. But for present just a few embellishments and she is done. I didn't do the Monday challenge as I didn't have anything interesting to show. I know you must have got fed up with the flowers but these bloomed after a heavey shower last night and I thought they look lovely so I wanted to share.

  2. I just love this- even with the less than perfect finger. Who is going to notice that with her fantastic face and all the rich embellishing.

    I am enjoying everyone's summer flower photos very much. I can never see too many photos of flowers- and those are gorgeous.

  4. hello again , Rose beads ,I gather petals and put in pot of water,so water is above the leaves.I heat to boiling point and let it cool down.I do this 4 days.Then the flower mass is ready .I drain water(have wondered if I can paint with the water)pres water out of a small handfull and start making balls..they shrik alot ,so a large marble is good for starters.Then leave to drt,but have to form as it is drying!there you go. have a nice day

  8. Lillies that beautiful deserve to be photographed Shashi. I so love these little glimpses into other people's worlds! Pandora looks great even in the full-size photo. I couldn't even find the broken bits. What a lot of work she must have been.

  10. never too many flowers Shashi....for me....

    and.... for glue.... have you ever tried a bit of Apoxy Sculpt> it is two part sculpting clay..but, honestly..if you can get a bit in between pieces and leave it stead til it dries in about a day... ...it is pretty darn great glue. As a matter of fact..don't get it on anything else whilst playing with it is my motto!! It is a beggar to get off!!
