Wood and Felt Mobile

Fri, 18 Dec 2009 11:32:10 -0500

$40.00
Each piece of wood is decoupaged, sanded, distressed and sealed on both sides. I've used several pieces of Heather Bailey fabric/paper, as well as others, and some of my own hand-silkscreened linen panels with original, whimsical flying animals. (included on this mobile are elephant, giraffe and cat) Edges are decorated with wool-blend felt. Wood blocks are strung with hemp twine to a wooden dowel that has been accented with felt.

All of my items come wrapped in clear cellophane with elegant ribbon and are ready for gift giving.

Please see my "Shop Policies" for an explanation of shipping charges.

Thank you for buying handmade!

A comment on shipping charges:
I try to do a good job of estimating what shipping charges will be. I've ended up on the short end of the stick a few times and have increased my estimates to reflect that. But I will give a refund for charges that exceed actual shipping costs - guaranteed! If you would like to know what actual charges will be before making a purchase, please feel free to contact me through "conversations".

Bamboo and Flying Giraffe Painting on Wood

Fri, 16 Oct 2009 15:50:31 -0400

$55.00
This original artwork is hand painted in acrylic with a clear, protective varnish. It measures slightly larger than 8"x10" and comes predrilled with a hole on back for easy hanging. Painted on 1/4" plywood, the painting has been adhered to 1/2" thick MDF particle board to keep it from bending or warping with time.

Used as decoration for a nursery, this painting can be something that a child can keep as a memento for years to come!

All of my "Buzzing Bog" paintings are inspired by my whimsical imagination that brought these winged creatures to life. I think they would make wonderful additions to any nursery, child's room or playfully decorated space.

This bib is made with a panel of fabric featuring the designs from my "Buzzing Bog" collection. Additionally, a patchwork of prints accents the border. The back is super soft off-white chenille.

Bib fits 0-24 months.

Yes, I know, this is too nice to get dirty. (I hear that a lot) But, rest assured, it is machine washable and is perfect for special occasions. My bibs are also wonderful teething bibs for catching all that slobber and wiping little mouths dry with the soft chenille.
