Seen these on other posts and made one for a dear friend. Only item I purschased was polyclay.
Found pots and large saucer, each pot is a about two sizes smaller than the one before it. You can make this as big or as small as you like, depending on the size of pots you can find. I painted mine prior to gluing. I used epoxy 6000 adhesive.
sorry I don’t have allot of in between pics. But there would be just to many. The door, windows and collapsed decking is just hobby wood I had from my other crafts. I painted them a silver grey wash with craft paint. The fish net was a small garment bag from Dollar tree , I cut it into an odd triangle painted black. Moss, seaweed was also purchased at Dollar tree. Rocks and coral were items from my fish tank extras.the roof was tough to find what to do. I ended up using a paper bag and plaster. These glass enclosure was the cap to some body spray. Octopus, star fish and crab I made from the clay ($1.27 hobby lobby). And the light I swiped from one of the houses from my Christmas Village.
The black wire in “X” pattern on the glass. Is just hemp rope dipp in clear Elmer’s glue to stiffen it.
Might cost more depending on items you already have. Hope you like it! this is my first project post.
