Sun, 06 Dec 2009 09:13:27 -0500

$12.00
Set of 12 Folded Paper Stars-often referred to as German or Moravian Stars.
These stars are a solid ivory color. These are great as Christmas tree ornaments, but also as bowl fillers, or ornaments for a tree that you decorate for different holidays.
These very plain vintage looking stars would go great on a country themed Christmas tree, or an Adirondack themed tree.
These stars are each individually hand folded and constructed, then dipped in clear wax to protect them.
These stars DO NOT have holes punched in them, in case the buyer would rather display them as a bowl filler or sprinkle them on an old hutch. If you DO want them punched with holes, I can do that before shipping. If you would like tree hooks, or fishing line attached, please let me know that, too! I would be glad to add them before shipping.
Each star measures approximately 2 inches, from point to point.

Handpainted CUSTOM Deer Slate Welcome Sign -- 10x14

Wed, 04 Nov 2009 06:31:37 -0500

$30.00
This is the perfect gift for the hard to buy for person in your life. A hunter's or wildlife enthusiast's birthday, a Christmas present for the man in your life, the possibilities are endless. I made one similar to this one time, with an identical deer on it, and it said Papa's Garage.
This is an approximately 10"x14" piece of slate, hand painted with a greeting of your choice, and a deer.
This slate is strictly an example piece of what the deer will look like. This piece only has the word "Welcome" on it, but a family name or other greeting can be put on the slate that is destined for your house!
Welcome on top , and your last name or house number could be added under the deer.
Or something like Grandpa's Garage or Nana and Pa's house would be a great idea.
If this item is something you are interested in, the piece would be ordered an painted by me, specifically for you, made to order.

Examples of the fonts I use can be viewed at these links:

Hanger is either a raw hide strip, or a wire, which ever you would like.
Each piece is sprayed with a sealer to protect against the elements.
If this is something you are interested in, convo me for a special request!
Keep in mind that although each slate measures approximately 10x14, each one is an original piece of natural slate, with slight imperfections.
Insurance is recommended for this piece, because it is fragile.
Because of the size of this piece, it is very heavy. I use a large Priority Flat rate box for postage. That is 10.35. Then I automatically added insurance costs, so that makes up the $13.00 shipping fee.
I usually complete custom orders, and then post them in a reserved listing so the purchaser can see their item and then pay.

Reclaimed Wood Sentiment Sign--Be Nice or Leave 6x12 inches

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 12:19:11 -0500

$15.00
This sign measures 6" x 12", and is about an inch thick.
This sign is made from a piece of reclaimed or repurposed wood. The wood came from an old church pew, that was over 100 years old. Some of the pews were not able to be salvaged, which is how I got my hands on some scraps.
The face of the board, the part I painted on, is actually the under side of the seat of the pew. The pews had been painted a dark brown at some point, so the back of the piece is that color brown. The wood itself is beautiful, and full of character. Oh, the stories it could tell!
Obviously, the wood is not perfect, which gives it such character. There are some minor creases, and notches in the edges, and even some discoloration.
The sentiment says "Be Nice or Leave" and is hand painted in ivory acrylic paint.
I finished off the piece by adding a hanger of doubled up rusty wire.
Sprayed with a matte sealer, to protect the piece from weather, but to keep it natural looking.
Very little was done to this wood, just a light sanding before and after painting.
The perfect addition to your home--and because the wood is limited, there won't be many pieces in the store!

Brain in a Book--Pink/White/Green Mom's Brain

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 06:35:03 -0400

$15.00
5x7 inch altered notebook with lined pages
This notebook is altered with patterned papers, cardstocks, and coordinating embellishments.
I dubbed this type of notebook my “brain in a book” because there are just some things that I cannot remember anymore, no matter how hard I try! This notebook (I am now on my third brain) has sections and dividers, to keep information separate.
It is small enough to keep in a tote bag or average sized purse. I keep it out at all times, so I can write something quickly if I need to. Some of the things I keep in my book are holiday gift list ideas, gardening notes that I would forget from one season to the next, grocery lists, DVD and craft supply wish lists, and to-do lists.
I love to bring it along to appointments with me. It is fun to sit in the doctor’s office and pull it out and have everyone look at my cool book! It is so cute, you will get inquiries about it often!

Hanger is either a raw hide strip, or a wire, which ever you would like.
Each piece is sprayed with a sealer to protect against the elements.
If this is something you are interested in, convo me for a special request!
Keep in mind that although each slate measures approximately 10x14, each one is an original piece of natural slate, with slight imperfections.
Insurance is recommended for this piece, because it is fragile.
Because of the size of this piece, it is very heavy. I use a large Priority Flat rate box for postage. That is 10.35. Then I automatically added insurance costs, so that makes up the $13.00 shipping fee.
I usually complete custom orders, and then post them in a reserved listing so the purchaser can see their item and then pay.
