I started decorating the garden now that spring is in full force...
I began with these items purchased at my local dollar store.
I played with the placement of the pieces to make a garden bird bath and a mushroom.
After staining parts of several pieces I fallowed directions and baked them for 40 min. and got finished pieces that are dishwasher safe and will hold the color outside. On the mushroom I used glass paint and let it dry 48 hours. I played with placement again then glued the pieces and let it dry a few days. Then out they went to be part of the garden.
I have been doing little projects like these the last two weeks instead of working on my current altered book project. I also decided I needed to paint the furniture in my studio and move things around to make more storage.....because I needed another project.So I've been behind on my work for the shop. Thankfully I have other pieces which I can post to it that are already done and some pieces to re-post that have expired.
That's all for today, happy spring everyone! Much love
