Congrats to this wonderful couple who got married in Central Park this May!


It was really fun creating this dress in clay, and surprisingly, I believe this was my first plaid! The suit has a really cool texture as well, that I added with a steady hand and tiny needle. Some of the other details I included were the makeup for her, and a bit of a five o-clock shadow for him. Clean shaven he still has that rugged shadow goin on.
If you’re in the Ann Arbor, Michigan area and would like to see an example in person, check out Zingerman’s Cake! showroom, or send me an email and I would be more than happy to meet with you in person.

Sweet Bunny Baxter hopped up to my sister’s doorstep in the spring of 2003. A jet black bunny, friendly and sweet, he lived a good bunny life until this past fall. In his memory I created a bust with a block of wood and candlestick for a base. Baxter is sculpted from polymer clay, and fitting his regal bunny look, he wears a white cotton shirt, black tie, gray satin damask vest, and black velvet coat all custom made and handstitched.
