Marine Wedding

One of my best friends' daughter is getting married next weekend and she is marrying a Marine so naturally I had to make her a gift of ornaments complete with the Marine groom, which he will be wearing the uniform to get hitched. I really struggled with making the hat. First I tried air dry clay as I didn't want to have to bake the bulb but it ended up cracking majorly. So I tried polymer clay and baked it on the bulb on very low heat and it worked beautifully. I am so excited this worked as I have two new designs I have painted that need hats that aren't made of fleece so I hope to get those finished in the next week or so. Stay tuned to those!
