I know that back in the age of the cavepeople they used figurines carved from wood and/or made from clay to symbolize fertility. well I decided to make one of my own. Its very pagan-ish with its style but it serves the same purpose as the figurines our ancestors used :p just thought I would share it with everyone, I feel very accomplished   of course I don't need to boost my fertility, I've already managed to excel in that area hahaha. But I made it in a sort of mindset to ensure that I have a good pregnancy and that everything (and everyone) comes out healthy and happy.  |

Really beautiful! I love all kinds of arts and crafts, but I've never tried working with clay. This is very inspiring.
