Most of the Fair results! 2016

Went to the Fair to see how my entries did today. I was totally surprised, yet again. Some of the things I am most proud of did not do as well as others.
Funny how that works. Anyway..
In the Tatting Category... Yukon Cornelius got 1st!!

In the Novelty Category... the Angel Mobile got 1st!!
In the  Toy category, my entry got a 3rd, but I can't show it yet as it is a swap gift.
In the Creative category, my entry, which is also a swap gift, got OMG... Sweepstakes, Best of Show and 1st! My swap partner is going to be very happy about that!

In the Fine arts category, my Halloween painted cat got Sweepstakes and 1st! Yeah!
In  the Christmas ornament category... Hermey also won the Sweepstake and 1st! Wow! What a big ribbon for such a little elf!
In other crafts, my Evil Minion won 1st place in flowers
My Bat Box won 1st in Seasonal decorations
A necklace I entered got 2nd, (swap gift) and a recyclable item (swap gift) won 1st!
And my hand drawn mug won 3rd.

My last winning entry was my Mr. Fox Stole. He won 2nd.


The other two of my hand made entries did not win, they were in a special category that you either won, or you lost, no 1st 2nd or 3rd in that one. I did not win, but I am very very very happy with the ones that did!!

I'll post pics of my swap partner's winning items after she receives them, at the end of this month or early next month.

All ready for the Fair!

I had a little time left, as I have to take my entries tonight, so I finished up another project and found a couple more for the antiques category! haha! I have 19 entries this year... and I didn't even enter a photo. Wow.

Here are a couple more of my entries.  Can't wait to see how they do!

                                                        Tatted Angel Mobile ornament
I saw one like this on Pinterest. I don't know who originally made it, but it was so cute, I made my own version. I think it is cute, too!

Hermey the "Dentist Elf"
I made him to add to my Misfits collection. I have shown him here before, but he wasn't
entered in the Fair last year because I finished him afterward. So, he is going in this year with Yukon Cornelius!
I have some other things to enter, like an old Child's Book,, pair of antique eye glasses, and a hand made card. I'll show them later.

More things for the Fair 2016

Just a few more things I made that I am entering

                                           Halloween Bat Box.. oven clay sculpted bat on a box I made.
I added a wooden base not shown here for more stability. It is round black and Glittered!

                                       Hand drawn Gorey pic on mug.. pic two is the other side.
                                         Baked in the oven to set the sharpie.
Halloween Scene painted on black ceramic cat. 


Knitted Fox Stole. He has magnets to keep him on.

I have more to show, but, some of it is for a swap, and can't be shown until after the swap.
There are some really cool things yet to see!!!!

New Misfit for Fair 2016

Here is my newest creation... Yukon Cornelius... from the Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer TV show.
Every year I try to make at least one to add to my collection, this year, it is the "Bumble" hunter
Yukon Cornelius!!
Ready to go, he has a pick axe, knife, stone hammer, backpack and bed roll, and a canteen!
Oh, and snow shoes! The last picture shows him next to Rudolph, who I made quite some time ago!
All 3D tatted... he is ready for the Fair!!





P.S. 
Please disregard Rebel's hair on his hat.. haha..
