I make spun cotton German - Antique style ornaments.
A self taught artist, I began using spun cotton in 2002. My work is mostly one of a kind pieces.
The styles I work in include: primitive, cartoon, realistic, pet portrait, and miniature. Most recently, I have been working in mixed media, incorporating cotton with needle felting and vintage bisque ceramics.
ALL the ornaments in this shop are made by me in the U.S.A. Each ornament comes from my hands to your home.
Please convo for shipping rates outside of the United States...I can update most any listing to include your country's international shipping figures.
I invite you to read the profile and shop policies.

About spuncotton
Welcome to Spun Cotton by Maria Paula
Maria Paula has been working with spun cotton since 2002. Her techniques, based on original methods, include reproductions and original works. Preserving the tradition of cottage industry by limiting production and the belief that each piece should be unique are the basis of her work ethic.
With a background in doll making, illustration, and sculpting, Maria uses this media to take advantage of all her design skills at once. She regularly works from photos for reproductions, accenting finished pieces with vintage trims and imported German embellishments. Her original designs are inspired by all manner of things including antique holiday decorations. Ornament themes include animals, fruits, Santa, snowmen, and a parade of Halloween figures.
Her work was chosen for the permanent collection of the Ohio Governor’s residence and has been featured in "Celebrate 365! Magazine"as well as "Early American Life". She was a participating artist in the Bewitching Peddlers of Halloween.
