I've been making little containers. I can't decide if I want to make a garden scene or a wash day scene. I think I'll probably make both eventually but for now I'm just making containers to hold things for both.
It's a lengthy process to make flowers by themselves. Paper or polymer? I think polymer would be sturdier but paper is more translucent. Paper has its limits though. It's not waterproof and it does collect dust that can't be cleaned off. Paper fades... ok so I talked myself into polymer. I'll probably make some of both.
So, I needed flower pots and watering cans and flower tubs. I don't know if I'll do a garden scene or a flower shop scene but that will probably depend on how my flowers turn out.
I'm getting all these ideas off of YouTube and just going with them. Some of them I make up all myself like the wash tub and the laundry basket. I just cut out freehand what I needed from cardboard and just made them.
The laundry basket is made from weaving embroidery floss through cardboard of an oval sunburst basically. I drew it freehand and cut it out with scissors. Same with the tub. After making the flower pots, I just drew a bigger curve shape freehand and cut it out.
Next, I will be painting them all.
