Large Stained Glass window for a castle

This is a stained glass Gothic window wall fountain and the glass window measures a foot.  Although it has a variety of uses, I admit I like this as is, but eventually I'll get a room built for it in the castle.

Handmade dollhouse from thrift

No, I have no idea what I'll do with it but yet another thrift bargain.  It was filled with many pieces of handmade wooden furniture, so I thought that was pretty nifty.  I have always liked the idea of a front-opening dollhouse though.

Dollar Tree's Miniature gargoyles

Dollar Tree is an entire line of Halloween miniatures, including these gargoyles and much more.  These are perfect for a castle, or mansion, or haunted/Halloween setting.  They also have tombstones and houses. 

Perfect for a miniature castle

Found this candle holder (I put a fountain in the candle holder part) that I know will be a great addition to the front of the castle. It's about 16" tall, and I'll have it connect to a room for the front.  I will find a better fountain or make one for the front but wanted to show you how neat it was.  Another lucky thrift find. 

Miniature Spanish Wall and Fountain

This is another thrift shop find, and it was broken in various areas, and missing some pieces.  So I used glue, then alcohol ink, for the floor, created two lion heads for the stops up higher (something had been glued there but was now gone) and so forth.  I think it could be used in the castle, but for now I want to continue fixing it up and adding some flowers.  I think a lower floor would be good as well.  That way I'll get a whole scene.

Finds for miniature table bases

These are just a few of the things I've used for making tables.  Look especially for egg holders, but also sometimes beads will work and I especially love using chess pieces as well.

Usually I make the table tops of clay but the coaster (looking lopsided) on the top egg stand was a garage sale item, used only to show it's possible.

Other things I've used, other than clay or wood, are cake decorations, candle holders, lamp parts, elephants (as you'll see on my clay blog) and various wedding supply items, to name but a few.

Oriental table and flowers

The table is a base from an oriental candle or vase, and the top is a real slate coaster.  I love making furniture the easy way. :)

The flowers I made in real pots, adding clay, and then sticking in the flowers from model railroading supplies.  I tested to make sure, and was able to cook them all to set the poly clay. -doc
