Outfit of the day
Tunic design and pattern made by me
skirt H&M
shoes Harajuku Lovers
1920 ribbon




While at my mother in law's house
there is plenty of down time
So I bought air dry clay and paint
and made some pins

In the 1950's it was fashionable
to wear live chameleons
with little chain harnesses.
I am working on my final school collection
with this in mind as my sole inspiration.
(If you know anything about this or have seen pictures, I would be happy to hear anything since I am researching non stop!)
(I promise to keep you posted)
I have made
a brooch version for now



other random brooches



To everyone who has contributed:
Thank you so much for the suggestions
in Glasgow and Barcelona

To jacklyn: The first photo of the package is a visual of the brand of air dry clay. I just molded what I wanted with my fingers, let it dry, then painted them with acrylic paint that I mixed from the primary colors.
Quite the sense of fun and lively grace you have in some of your outfits. I also enjoyed seeing some of your designs. Thanks for dropping by my page before. Be "seeing" you soon and have an excellent weekend

Very lovely clay brooches! Dry clay is soooo difficult to work with, imo! Or maybe that I'm just bad at it.
I've just found a photo of my mother in Cyprus as a child with two lizards on her cardigan - would you like me to forward it to you for your research?
