When you work hard, one of the most rewarding things is finally noticing your improvement.

Zozo is an artist behind the Strawberyypuffcake Instagram account who recently decided to recreate her old polymer clay artworks just to see the progress she made. This talented artist saved a lot of her first creations and now she‘s placing it next to the new ones, and you can clearly see the difference.

“You can do everything that you want to do,” says Zozo on her Instagram. “It’s not magic, just practicing. It’s not important for how long you are working on something. I always remind people not to give up, I’m always saying it so you wouldn’t forget.”

Practice indeed makes perfect!

    Yeah. She made the old one years ago but she took pics of the old and new one on the same day (I'm assuming) so her nails have to look the same as she's holding each one to take a pic.

    Ok, this one looks to be similar as the burger one, not so much about the overall quality but rather the amount of details she could put in.

    I thought the 2016 one was really good, until I realized it was supposed to be a pie. It doesn't really look like a pie.

    The difference is fantastic but back in 2013 they weren't using resin just clay so the material has completely changed
