Her head is adorned with iridescent green flowers on top of curly, synthetic black hair. She has glistening blue eyes (made of embedded blue beads).She wears a shimmering grey tunic and sits (permanently) in a clay basket covered in a soft plaid material. The basket is filled with green and white iridescent flowers.

She's Lovely! I envy your ability with human )humanoid/elf) faces! My only complaint is a wish for more pictures! (i.e. different angles, etc...) KUTGW, Huzzah!

:-) Megon Noel 'Emoni' Haydes replies: "Thank you so much ... your comments are so nice. I know it took a while for me to reply ..... busy season ... I am going to try to eventually do more pictures like I did with the "Arebella Group" with several pictures at different angels (which takes away from your ability to show detail) but then maybe have one main to show detail in a larger pic. The way I did with Arebella. Thanks so much for your input! ~*~Megg~*~"

This is amazing! Your skill is VERY good, and I love the innocence of the faerie's face. Out of curiosity: the clay is fired, how do you attach the hair? It looks like it is really growing from her head.

:-) Megon Noel 'Emoni' Haydes replies: "Its Sculpey Clay so its baked in the oven. I use a variety of different glues to attach the hair a different type of glue for each style I'm trying to achieve. on this particular piece I believed I used hot glue. fabric glues also work well, but I wouldn't recommend super glue 8 doesn't work out so well. Sticks to your fingers, burns your eyes, and its too liquid ... it runs everywhere. Thank you so much for the great compliment, I'm really glad that it has the effect of growing right out of her head, that's what I was going for. Thanks so much again! ~*~Megg~*~"

Hi there! First of all, I would like to say that your sculptures are just amazing. Secondly, I have a question. For how long and at what temperature do you usually bake your creations? I was fiddling around with some sculpey, and managed to completely incinerate what I was making. It was blackened. I think I had it at about 375* (Fahrenheit) for about 20 minutes... guess that was too hot/long! I tried a second time, this time at about 300*F for 20 minutes, and it seemed to work better, but I'd love to hear your thoughts on it. Thanks so much!
