Oy, it has been a while since I've updated. I have been working away like a busy bee getting things ready for my summer shows. My first one is in June, so I am trying to stay ahead of schedule! (for once!)
This will definitely be a picture post because that is the commitment level I can live with right now. tee hee.
It all starts with some wood that I buy at our Habitat for Humanity's ReStore. They have AMAZING finds for any homeowner or artsy craftsy person like me. Super cheap, super dirty and super fun!
Then that is reincarnated into super fun things like this (ya get the business name now? Reincarnations? Eh, thought so!)
Some friendly roosters that I created for a friend's gift and I loved him so much (the white one) I made more! Sometimes I think the best ideas come to me that way.
These are the beginnings of some itty bitty houses. I thought they were so pretty all lined up and rainbow-y:
Then I add some little paper and paint windows and doors....
And then I finish them up all cute and add a little clock base with a tree...
They aren't attached to the base in any way, so people can choose to buy a base and add the houses they want. Or they could just buy the little houses! They range from about 1 in tall to 3 inches tall.
I also have a larger version with a base and detachable houses. Same concept, a little bigger and the clock is in the tree...
I'm also working on more customizable housewarming clocks:
And some more coffee cups:
Lots new leash hooks for your puppy...
I have a new concept for my sign at my tent, I bought these paper mache letters:
I think it will look awesome once they are painted up, but I am not sure how to display them yet!
I don't think I will post anything on etsy until after the first show on the 1st of June. It is super hard for me not to want to sell these new things, but I need to reserve my stock. If you are in Ohio, I will be at the North Market for Artisan Sundays the first Sunday of the month until October. It is one of my favorite locations!
And to leave you on a humbling note. Here is my artistic mess. It goes from tidied up to super messy to tidy all over again in a matter of hours. It makes me feel productive!
My power tools! What would a girl do without them! Have a wonderful week, I will be back soon.
