I love working with polymer clay. I’ve made mostly beads and my kids have made various sculptures. They have a good time playing with clay since it’s easily manipulated and changed into something else. I have several projects on my mind for when we are fully unpacked for them to create. But to keep us in polymer clay happiness I bought a couple of adorable birds from etsy.

First, when a package comes with a drawing it makes me want to save the envelope. I don’t draw nearly as well as so many others! And the drawing – just like the bids I bought!

They came in a box with a flower on top

and with a tag with another flower

But on to the birds!

Meet JooJoo and MooJoo – and this time around, BooJoo is traveling with them. I like to imagine BooJoo as that little cousin who had to follow you around when you were a teenager. You know, the one that tagged along when you went to the movies or to see friends or just left the house.

I love these sculptures. They are adorable, fun to look at and my kids have already made up a handful of stories about them.

Oh and rather then throw away the envelope I cut it apart and put the drawing on the fridge.
