Now For the Fun Part...

Walter and I went out to find a new Christmas tree this morning.  We found one at K Mart that was a great buy.

First we went to Walmart , but they didn't have much displayed so that you could see what you were getting.

While I was there, I picked up another package of Polyform Model Air.  That is the air drying clay that I am using on the roof.  Just thought you might want to see the package, just in case you want to find some for yourself.

When we got home, I started messing with the potpourri.  I knew that the little pine cones would work for the cactus, but not sure what the other things would do.

Whatever this is,  I like the way it paints up.  I used a mixture of dark forest green and sage green.  I mix as I go, so that none of the color stays the same for the whole plant.

This one is a real mystery.  I have no idea what it is and I'm not sure that I have ever seen it in potpourri before.  I does paint up nicely.  Almost an apricot tree?

I still have two more bunches of that.  It is definitely going to get used!

The reason I bought the clay was... The ends of the roof are begging for gargoyles or dragons... Not sure which. I have to get all of the theatre tray brick glued in place.  Then I can fill in the cracks and start sculpting the pieces for the end of the peak...

I still need to do some carving on the center pieces, but I think that they are going to turn out well. We shall see. Maybe the ends will be glued on and some sculpting done by tomorrow.

See you then.
