rockpopandchips Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 So this is my 9 year daughters first dio( with a bit of help from Dad) she has always like the modles that i build but never really wanted to build one herself, so we came up with this idea. Air drying clay was used for the hedgehogs we made them last weekend, i did make the shape but she did the eyes and spike details and painted them. The rest of the dio is all her own work and the grass looks better than what i do(the pva is still drying) and the leaves and wood are picked from the garden. We both hope you like it. 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badder Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 That's a lovely little work of art! Get your daughter to send pics to the big chain gardening store owners and see if they'll take on her designs? Badder 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
