Yesterday at a crop in Swansea I made a wall hanging for my guest bedroom. Well it is not as yet my guest bedroom as Nadia has not moved out into the house next door yet-my former scrap house!! She is hoping to move in within the next couple of weeks. Last week I had it painted and papered from top to bottom and tomorrow I have a man coming to fit new worktops and to make the small bedroom into a dressing room. Sorry I have slipped away from the wall hanging. The wall hanging is a canvas Vintage style affair pinks and creams. I used the Tim Holtz Birdcage and Dress makers dummy die to create vintage style dresses, along with lace and pearls. I stamped 'Vintage' with some acrylic stamps and old paper Distress inks. I also inked the edges of the canvas in gold acrlic Dabbers and then stamped over with Distress ink and a script stamp.
I added a Tim Holtz pearl charm to the bottom edge for the extra 'bling'
I cut the cotton reel down as it was a bit too big and wound some very thin twine around and added a couple of fancy headed pins.
This canvas is now the property of Nadia for her dressing room wall!!!
I am really pleased that she does like something I have made and feel happy she wants to display it in her dressing room. I now have to make another for the guest room.
Thanks for calling by.
