Thanksgiving Meal

I did make a clay Thanksgiving meal, of course. A grand total of 9 dishes were created. I looked at Gardenofimagination's (YouTube) tutorial for most of them: the pumpkin pie, the apple pie (sort of), mashed potatoes, corn, and some of the turkey. For the turkey, I looked at her tutorial and Sugarcharmshop's (YouTube) cooked chicken tutorial and sort of combined the two. But the platter was my idea, using gold and silver. I also made the candles and the pumpkin and the cornucopia with no outside influence. The dishes from my imagination were the mashed sweet potatoes with marshmallow, the salad, the green bean *casserole*, and the bread. I'm going to make a video on YouTube so you can see them, and I'll be accepting tutorial requests for anything that I actually made myself.

Right now they're on my Flickr- Firefox979. Please check them out.

I also painted the wood table they're on.

Pumpkin Tutorial: Video!

Hey everyone! I finally uploaded the pumpkin tutorial in video form, so enjoy! I'm so glad to be finally helping my fellow clayers- especially the new ones. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE feel free to ask any questions or request something or leave a comment or anything like that! I want your feedback! I want to help! Here's the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ums1oVID_oU

Thanksgiving is fast approaching and I'm starting to plan a clay feast. I noticed that Garden of Imagination (from YouTube) has a sort of menu from years ago and she shows how to make a lot of Thanksgiving foods. I'll sort of use her as a reference when I do mine.

I'm starting to worry about the Gallery- the stuff I have there hasn't sold and it was a lot of Halloween stuff! So now I can't put anything in there Thanksgiving-themed or Christmas-themed because the Halloween stuff hasn't sold- and won't, because Halloween's over! Big dilemma! We'll just have to see. Upside- I'm starting to think more seriously about neighborhood advertising, and from there, I'll proceed to conquer the world! Just kidding- from the neighborhood and the town I live (I'm already selling at the gallery, remember) I'll progress to the country and maybe the world. We'll see how far I get. It would be a great help if you would just tell me what you think.

Farewell until next post! Ta-ta, y'all!
