sculpting 500 worry stones

sculpting 500 worry stones i'm gonna be starting off w the persimmon bc it's the newest addition to my worry stone line up to make the stem part i'm gonna be using this 3D cutter that my brother printed for me it's in the shape of a little flower & for some reason it makes me so so happy, i think it's so cute as i've gotten older i've been liking flowers more & more when i was younger i was pretty annoying & i would say i hate flowers & i basically hate all things that are 'girly' i think it's bc i thought i was cool if i was saying that but i definitely was not cool i also used to say that i hated the color pink but look at me now bc i love pink so much is there anything about your younger self that you're embarrassed of? bc for me i'm super embarrassed of how i used to be the biggest 'pick me' it took me until college to finally grow out of it but looking back i think "ew why were you like that" "why did you care so much about a guys attention" especially if he didn't like you bc guys did not like me at all back then i wish i spent all that time focusing on myself & getting to know myself better i'm gonna cut myself off bc i feel like i'm going on a tangent but anyways, i finished that batch of persimmons & now i'm gonna move on to making the strawberries bc i actually ran out of orange clay so i still have about 100 persimmons left to sculpt i love making the strawberries i think the shape is so so fun & i also really like adding on the little bumps (seeds) for my next preorders, whenever they're gonna be i really wanna add a pink strawberry to the lineup my batch of strawberries are all done so i'm just gonna add them to the baking tray & get them baked i bake them at around 250f for 30 min if you're scared about them burning, you can always bake them at a lower temperature but for a longer amount of time & i also use my little toaster oven instead of the huge oven in the kitchen i cleaned it w acetone & now i'm gonna be using some tape to get off any lint it's gonna go in a box until it's ready to be glazed now i'm left w 110 more strawberries to make
