Some previous creations

This is a wood box covered with strips n bits of indigo
tissue paper and scrapbook paper, sealed with Krylon
Kamar Varnish. All the bright brass hardware was
replaced with those of an antique brass finish.
The inside is lined with a dutch blue felt.


This is a paper mache box painted with acrylics,
sponged with metallic copper acrylic to give it a very old
metal pitted look. The design was hand drawn
and leafed in Krylon 18k Gold pen, with an image
inpired by PSX 'Botanical Calla Lily' Stamp.


A wood burning of PSX Botanical Calla Lily stamp,
hung with weathered green jute and sealed with Krylon
Kamar Varnish. Green jute looks REALLY cool if you
leave it out in your back yard for an entire year,
and let nature have her wicked way with it.


A paper mache box made as a companion to a tea set
with the same image bought at Walmart a couple
years ago. I use natural sea sponges and acrylics to
create the 'guinea feather' mottled effect, using
Chocolate Cherry with Antique White on a solid
Chocolate Cherry background. All acrylics by
Delta Ceramcoat. The image of the rooster was
printed on heavy card stock, and affixed with a backing
of Scotch Quick Dry Tacky Adhesive and embellished with
4 antique brass brads. The whole project was then sealed
with several light coats of Krylon Kamar Varnish.
