Vintage style Christmas Ornament



Hello again.. I am really enjoying myself with these ornaments.. This one even has a wee baby tucked inside.. She is not removable.. The ornament is sculpted of cernit and is painted with mica powers and pearl acrylic. It measures 51/2" tall and is 3" wide.. I have strung about 4 inches of blue glass beads at the top for hanging. I hope you like the detailing.. The wee one is sculpted of prosculpt and details with fine acrylics.. I have crocheted her bunting and used cotton material for her cap.
I hope you have enjoyed your visit.... She is available on ebay.
Blessings to all

Please meet ~ Joy ~ A wee winter fairy


Please meet Joy.. A wee winter fairy. Sculpted of Cernit, she sits 2 3/4" tall. She sat on my table for some time, waiting on me.. Looks as if she has fallen asleep sitting up.. (I've done that). I have dressed her in rose petals from my garden that have been sealed, and gave her a little sprinkle of fairy dust.. Her transparent wings are acrylic, they feel like glass. I hope you enjoyed meeting Joy.. She is available on Ebay if you would like to visit her auction..
Blessings,
Penny

Keepsake Rose Ornament


I wanted to attempt a vintage look to this ornament. I don't know if I have accomplished the look, but I enjoyed creating it. Sculpted of Cernit over a foil armature. Painted with metallic pearl powders. I remember my grandmas ornaments were metallic, most in deep colors.. But you know I always tend to use pastels, so this was the end result..I have added a few sequins at the top, dried flowers from my garden that have been sealed, wire, beads that hold the tiny glass wing at the bottom..
Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend..
Now available on Ebay. Listed this morning.. (Saturday) for a 3 day auction.
With the holiday season upon us, I would like to send you to see Ann at St. Nicholas and Christmas. If you are interested in discovering the real St. Nicholas and the real reason he is associated with Christmas, please stop in and become a follower.. I simply love reading her stories and I always come away with a little more knowledge... Ann is such a sweet soul, please take time to pay her a visit.. You won't be dissapointed.
Blessings,
Penny
