Little Jugs

I made all the jugs in a white 'enamel' with navy blue trim - very traditional :) The set I made for my dear friend Lizzie looks more pristine and new - because hers will be a Victorian dolls house, and the jugs/ewers would have been newer back then. The ones I made for myself I wanted to be very dilapidated and rotten looking... so here they are (not a bad attempt for first try)
Lizzie's gift from me - new and pristine looking :)

I wanted my jugs to be grimier and very used looking

This is the only sizes I shall make - the tiny ones are so difficult with my old arthritic hands lol

Just Practising...

I have seen a lot of paper jugs and ewers on the internet, and decided to see if I could cobble one together. Just as a rough piece, I made some out of paper and didn't paint them - a practice run, if you like :)
I can't wait to get hold of some paint and make some 'properly' :)
The ruler shown is in centimetres.
 Excuse my terrible nails - but crafting is a messy job lol
