Custom Made Personalized One of a Kind Dog or Cat Treat Jar or Pet Urn

This listing is for a personalized pet jar which can be used for cat or dog treats, office supplies, snacks, or as a memorial urn for pets who have passed away. As an pet urn you can store your pet's ashes, a tuft of fur, whiskers, pet tags, or anything else you want to remember your pet with. Every one of these pet jars are custom made just for you, using pictures of your pet. When you place your order you'll need to send me several good pictures of your cat, dog, or other pet and I'll use those pictures to re-create your pet in polymer clay. The pictures for this listing are of my own cat, Calcifer and another customer's dog. Calcifer is blind in one eye, which is why it appears milky in the pictures. I pay close attention to little details like this to make these miniatures resemble your pet as closely as possible. Using Premo polymer clay I'll sculpt your cat or dog in any pose you choose, paying close attention to detail and doing my very best to capture your pet's personality. These miniatures are sculpted by hand, without the use of any molds, which makes each and every one a unique, one of a kind original creation. I texture the fur and then paint details (spots, stripes, etc.) with acrylic paint. These sculptures measures 2 1/2 to 3 inches tall. Depending on the pose your sculpture will measure about the same. I use a half pint glass mason jar with a regular size metal lid and securely attach the sculpture to the lid with a screw and glue. I cover the top of the lid with polymer clay and I also cover the glass jar with clay and add a polymer clay plaque with your pet's name stamped into the clay. For the dog jar I cut out bone shape from clay and stamped the name into that. If you're using this as a memorial jar I can stamp a date on the plaque as well. After baking the clay I paint the letters with acrylic paint to make them stand out. I can also stamp decorative embellishments around the back and sides of the jar. For Calcifer's jar I added heart shapes with stamped paw prints. Once painted I use several coats of high gloss glaze to protect the paint and add shine and durability to the jar. Polymer clay is very strong, once baked and can withstand regular handling. These jars can be hand washed and since I'm using glass mason jars they're safe for food storage. I can also use a larger mason jar for an additional fee. I can make a personalized pet jar for any type of pet you may have as long as you have good pictures of the pet. I've been sculpting animals for over 10 years now and have sculpted cats, dogs, ferrets, skunks, rabbits, mice, fish, turtles, birds, and many others. I also have a listing for larger personalized dog jars with 4 inch tall sculptures here http://www.artfire.com/ext/shop/product_view/CreativeCritters/6721962/unique_ooak_personalized_custom_made_pet_dog_treat_jar_or_memorial_urn/handmade/pets/pet_lovers/figurine and a listing for cat jars with 4 inch tall sculptures here http://www.artfire.com/ext/shop/product_view/CreativeCritters/6720810/unique_ooak_personalized_custom_made_pet_cat_treat_jar_or_memorial_urn/handmade/pets/pet_lovers/figurine.
