Who says becoming an adult means we need to stop playing or allowing our imaginations to roam free? For those of us in the crafty world, it just means our toys can be more expensive and our creations more elaborate!

"I grew up around wonderful crafty women who have always encouraged my creative side along with teaching me many crafts such as crewel embroidery, sewing and making things for my dolls as a child. As an adult I look to books and internet tutorials, but mostly my imagination," said artist Leslie Wiedenroth. Wiedenroth creates realistic - to the point of being usable! - Pagan, metaphysical and spiritual miniatures as 5 Rings My Lady in Bradenton, Florida, United States.
