Winter Project for the Miniature Garden

A great winter project is creating items for your miniature garden.  I love making gnomes and little animals for my gardens using polymer clay.   
Start with any brand of Polymer Clay and be creative.  I also like to apply a clay glaze to my items to make them even more weather resistant. 

Once you have your items formed, bake them according to the clay manufacturer's directions.

Freezing Fog

This morning we had freezing fog.  Freezing Fog is when you have foggy conditions and below freezing temperature.  When the fog comes in contact with an object that is below freezing temperature it forms ice.
