Chasing Whimsies YouTube Channel

Today sees my Chasing Whimsies YouTube Channel go live. Over the next few weeks I aim to upload a lot of turnaround vids of some of my work.

So far there is just one but I hope it will give you a good idea of my work and what I enjoy doing....you may even see some cats hog the camera a bit !

"Adventure Is Out There"

This is a one of a kind wooden keepsake box I recently made.

It is themed after the wonderful Disney/Pixar film "Up" which tells the story of recently widowed Carl and his adventure with young Russell....and Dug the dog ?

It is without a doubt one of my favourite films of all time and it was a labour of love to make this.

The box itself features a table cloth sculpted from high quality polymer clay, and painted to resemble the type of tablecloth Carl would have in his new home.

On the table cloth are many keepsakes that Carl has collected and saved from his journey to Paradise falls including.....

A beloved framed picture of his wife, 'Ellie' - the frame is sculpted from polymer clay.

A treasured 'Bird' ornament that used to sit on his mantelpiece - sculpted from polymer clay.

A copy of his and Ellie's "My Adventure Book" and a copy of Russell's "Wilderness Explorer Handbook"

Carl's Grape Soda Badge

Some 'Snipe" chocolate !

The outside of the box is adorned with polymer clay balloons and photo's from Carl and Russell's new adventures...along with some very funny pictures of Dug.

The inside of the box also features some pictures of the new best friends......and some more of Dug.

The box has a very high quality finish, and has a magnetic clasp closing mechanism.

It is for sale via my etsy shop HERE
