Making and a little Baking!

Just a few of the things being made round here lately...
I've just finished this thingo off with some pieces of little wood that I found on sale at a craft shop. I altered them with a transfer technique then put a resin glaze over the top!




I loved how the tiles turned out, so with one of the leftovers I tried my first attempt at jewelery making.



 Then there is the baking .... my boys helped with this one. Yummo rainbow cake!



 Had a bit of a collaboration going with my Mumsy on these baby's. ie. my design coupled with her brilliant sewing skillz!

And Mark has been gettin his Geek on with these WIPs:
They start out as paper, this one has been fiber glassed - I think!



And this one skinks so bad that there was no way I was letting my little model put it on his head. (also why it has been banished to the shed)

So many Photos ....

 .... So little time. This is one of many pix from last years photo shoot with all the cousins. They were taken as a gift for their Grans 70th birthday.

One For Mothers Day


My first (and probably last) lollipop card. I think they are really cute but I found gluing this a little bit fiddly .... and messy.

Framed


I found this frame at my local Life Line shop for $3. It was silver and quite tarnished so with a quick lick of black Gesso and a little gold 'rub n buff' I transformed it into this.


I transferred the Rhonna Farrer design onto canvas and added a bit of bling, but I think I may still add a little more dimension. 
I only thought to get a before photo after I was half way through applying the first layer of Gesso. So here is the 'before' pic. 


I am pretty happy with how it has turned out!

It feel good to finish something.

Something for the walls


The one below measures 120cm x 40cm and was a bit hard to photograph.


It is a bit dark and depressing and has received a few odd looks .... I think I am the only one that likes it. 8-)
