Update as of Spring 2016, I'm no longer making the dragonflies.
I sincerely appreciate all the past orders, thank you!
Please visit my new online shop featuring my coastal and
nature themed mosaics.
I've got a few new Butterflies I wanted to share.
The bodies are spindles or table legs and I cut the wings out of thin wood...
I've made other Peacock designs using texture,
but this time I used a painted design with a little animal print on the edges.
I used a vintage hook, of some sort, for the antenna and
metal beads for the eyes...
A bright, fun painted butterfly...reminds me of tie dye...
mismatched glass bead eyes, with distressed orange body and red head...
It looks like black, but it is really a pretty, dark purple...
I used my block painting technique to get this effect.
If you visit this blog often, you know I love zebra and animal prints
and have painted an armoire in yellow zebra as well.
More glass bead eyes and copper wire for antenna...
The further you go with this, the better and better they get! I'm madly in love with ALL of your table-leg creations. Garden fences everywhere should be this happy!
ReplyDeleteIt would be so hard to choose. That peacock is gorge but then I love that zebra. Damn. They are all awesome. You have really found your niche. Lucy in her insect period. :D
