This little gal (I call her Belle) was made from a vintage door plate and where the knob would be attached I made a little face from polymer clay. Her hair is wool roving that a friend picked up for me at a craft show from a local sheep farmer.
And here is little Lucy....
Of course the wood I mounted them on is from an old drawer that was languishing, but no more! The keys were from an old box of my great-uncle's junk.
I have to admit the more pleasurable thing about these are that I got to use things I have had hanging around for years and wasn't sure what the heck to do with them. I hate to throw things away so this was the perfect use for those items.
Well I have a new painting in the works in a different style from my usual and I am anxious to get back to it.. I hope everyone is safe and sound and that the weather will co-operate with us so we can have a grand 4th!
Always....

ReplyDeleteSadly I have finally parted with all my dribs and drabs of little items that "I may need some day". These are really cute!
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful! We must have the same friends and neighbors, because mine drop things off on my porch too! Have a great Sunday, I can't wait to see your painting! t.xoxo
