i'm BAAAAAAAAAACK!
---------------------------
i kept a few wedding projects until the last minute. i'm a bit of a procrastinator, i have to admit... :)
anyway, one of the last minute projects that we wanted to do was a cake topper for the grooms cake. kyle had found some really cute polymer clay ones online that i became obsessed with, so i decided to recreate some (for, well, a lot cheaper than we could have purchased them for. just an fyi). i adore penguins, so he had found some really cute ones.
so a trip to michael's, two bags of pluffy and about two hours later, we had our penguin groom's cake topper!
here they are in all their little penguin glory:
i painted the bride's bow red and the groom's tie aqua. i LOVED them! when i get the professional pictures, i'll be sure to post a few! i figured i'd have to settle for something not quite as cool as what he had found online, but i guess those two years of ceramics in college really paid off! yay, fine arts!
project total:
clay - 2 bags of clay at $2.99 (used a 40% off coupon)
paint - 2 bottles of paint at $.99
-------------------
around $8
$160 cake topper found online can suck it!
