SOME ALTERED ART!

WORKING AGAIN!
Started out with a plain try type wood box thing. I know good description. I say tray cause it has two metal handles on each end.
Decopodged some sheet music and mesh ribbon on the bottom. then did some ink shading and some stamping. Made this a wall hanging to sell with a friend as the theme.
A paper clock with some decorations around it.Inked that also. The hands and the # 7 is from a clock repair kit that my dad got to use the mechanism and didn’t need the rest .
It is finished enough to use as wall hanging right now ….but you know how it is…you can always find more goodies to fill it up. And the friend that would get this can add personal touches to it. Things that have to do with their friend and their time together…like tickets from a show etc. These are the kind of things I want to start to sell on Etsy and a craft show or two. I have a bunch of ideas whirling around in my head.  Now to make room in art/craft room to work. Also want still go to beach and park with RV and work in it.
Was a very cold weekend for camping…leaving today and it is finally going to warm up. You can check my other blog to see how that went .
all for now thanks for looking and come back soon

JUST A FEW THINGS

Well now that I have no swaps to do….not sure what I will be posting….Here is what I replaced my Hot Chocolate Bar (that I set up at Christmas) with. Some of the vintage that I have been collecting. An old fashion nut grinder, my mom had one just like this but some other family member has it. This is one that I got from a friends yard sale. 50 cents! The receipt card is the very first thing I painted back in the early 80’s very primitive. My sister and I spent a day together painting these. A vintage shredded wheat tin, along with a vintage shredded wheat tin receipt card box. and the Better Homes cook book from the 60’s. Love all this red vintage.
And here is an updated pic of Norma E. My vintage mannequin named in memory of my mother Norma Elizabeth. She is sporting lot of new stick pins and charms. Some received in swaps and some I made. The gold name NORMA was my mom’s I still have to find an E for her. Some how I have to fit this into my RV.
Here are a few Valentine altered art that I packaged up…not sure what I will do with it…maybe a give away. I need to find a new swap blog…I miss doing the swaps.
Thought I would thro in a pic of my RV at our shake down camp this past weekend. We went to Wickham Park here in Melbourne and had a blast….and learned much. If you want to check it out go to my other blog and see the posts there. http://grammyandthepapillonprinces.blogspot.com/
