| Introduction | I'm on facebook! Come be a friend :)http://facebook.com/SummerCovingtonSmith My name is Summer and I was born in Knoxville, TN. I married the love of my life and very best friend in October 2004. My most favorite medium to work with is Creative Paperclay. I also love the fact that I can incorporate other crafty skills I've learned over the years into my sculptures and art dolls such as sewing, beading, painting, etc. Some of my Inspirations come through dreams and that in between state of waking and sleeping hence the name ~Dreamspirations~. Others come from a wide variety of sources including people, emotions, mythology, history, nature, fantastical worlds..... I'm not quick to make my creations by any means and that's why I offer what I call "on the side" crafts in my Etsy Studio. Mostly Crochet :) Paper clay has to air dry in layers or at least that's how I build them up which can sometimes take up to 24 hours to harden. |
