Far and Away

Just sayin, that post fits you both @Zoe7 @Faith-and-Hope

Thinking of you both 💜💛💙💌

...and you too @Snowie

Yes, and you too @Snowie ...... ❣️

Assignment done ..... 🎉

I am officially on a break @Zoe7 😁

Hoping you're sleeping @Zoe7 .....

Morning @Zoe7 ❤️🦋 @Bimby2 @Snowie @eth @Lee82 .... anyone else around.

Looking forward to hearing your casting adventures for today @Zoe7, even if they are fails. The magic of creativity hey ? Even fails can be turned into abstract works of art.

I struggled to get up and going again today, which tells me I have a sleep debt to work out. I am looking forward to getting into personal projects I saved up for this time.

Hoping y'all have an okay day.

Hi @Faith-and-Hope love the mosaic heart, it's beautiful. Hi also to @Zoe7 @Snowie and others here. Hope today has been peaceful for you all and that your projects went well at school today @Zoe7

Hi @eth ..... thank you, and I see @Former-Member undet the Support button.

Hoping the day was a good one for you @Zoe7, and looking forward to hearing about the decorating of the plaster castings. Going looking at images like that heart (above) online is inspiring me. What do you use as an adhesive ?

Hi to anyone else around 👋💕

I had to stop and try to work out which day it was today.

Hey @Faith-and-Hope @eth The kids decorated their plaster casts with tiles, coloured rocks, paint, glitter and even some textas. They could choose what they wanted to use and we had some pretty crazy final products. One kid piled tiles high and then glued on rocks lol They all got them finished and I have left them drying over the weekend. On Monday I will cover some of them with clear glue so the rocks don't move.

@Faith-and-Hope With the kids I just use pva glue to stick things down but when I do them on my own I use tile adhesive. Covering the rocks with clear glue stops the rocks from moving as well as gives then a shinier look.

@Faith-and-Hope So glad you have finally finished and can get into your own projects. It must be such a relief to be able to stop a little now and I hope you can catch up with much needed sleep across the next few days ...very proud of you Hon for getting so much done these last few weeks

Thanks @Zoe7 ..... 🤗

And thank you for the info on plaster casting. I have used core flute to construct a box mould for plaster casting, and cast using alginate, but that is a process that embeds objects in clay first, or into the alginate until it's set.

I have used liquid nails to embellish a recent sculpture work, so what you are doing is giving me ideas to add to my repertoire.

it sounds like you have so much fun seeing what the kids come up with.
