For this special project, I'm creating cheerful, handmade polymer clay pins featuring animals and friendly characters for children receiving care at the Orthopedic Institute for Children. I know how scary doctor visits can be, so I wanted to make something that helps. I'm placing the pins at the reception desk so young patients can pick one out after their appointment, giving them something fun to look forward to and a little keepsake to take home. These are heartfelt gestures that hopefully bring a tiny bit of joy to families during stressful times.
