Some New Ornaments I designed
« on: November 13, 2011, 03:55:51 pm »
Hi, everyone. 

I just finished designing these new ornaments and I am really proud of them.  They are little self-framing designs and can be made as ornaments or plaques.  I made two sets of each design.  One set is made of Maple and finished with mineral oil and spray shellac and the other set is made of Baltic birch plywood and I used acrylic paint on the frames.  I sponged the paint on with a small sea sponge and then when it was dry, I added a light layer of Gold Metallic sponged on in the same manner.  They were fast and easy to do that way and I didn't even need a paintbrush. 

I hope you all like them!  Thanks for looking.

Sheila :)

Thank you all for your kind remarks.  I really loved how these turned out too. I wasn't sure when they were on the drawing board.  They have been one of my favorite projects that I have done.  I am so happy you like them. 

MsN - If you aren't on the mailing list for my site, you should consider it.  I sent out a special offer in a newsletter today and you get a discount on these ornaments.  I like doing extra things for the mailing list people.  I only send out one or two a month and I try not to bug  people too much.  But I just let them know what is new. 

Thanks again everyone.  You all make my life so much FUN! :)
