Welcome to my Vintage style furniture shop.... Lilly will demonstrate



No, I am not going into the Vintage furniture business, ( LOL )  but I am having such fun
needle felting these pieces out of Maori wool and Merino wool.
Below is my personal favorite, and in a much smaller scale as the big blue chair in my previous post..
More coming soon.
 
This Fainting couch measures:
5 1/2" long
3" tall
Seat is 1  1/2" deep
I hand cut a piece of balsa wood for the underside. .. Makes attaching the tiny metal legs a bit easier.
 Signed and dated on the wood


 
Underside of the Fainting couch.
 
 
 
Below is a grey Loveseat Settee
5 1/2 " long
4 1/4 Tall
Seat is 2" deep
Embellished with grey satin cording and a tiny metal piece inserted in back of
couch.  This piece also has a hand cut balsa underneath, signed and dated.
 Fainting couch will be available this evening on Ebay.
 
 

And of course, Lilly had to demonstrate how comfortable it is...
 
You remember Lilly, I created her last year...
Thank you so much for wandering  over.
Hope you enjoy the music..
blessings,
Penny

  2. HOLY MOLY Tea Rat tells Rattus that he MUST redecorate Wit's End. It is imperative that they order their new furniture from YOU! GEEEEEZ PENNY! Yowsers, you are unbelievable. This music, it's WORKING FOR ME! And it is just perfect for the wee folk as they move around their furniture in their mouse hole homes.

    That fainting couch....this is great. You have found your medium. WOOL! No breakage, just soft sweetness. And that gray chair, LILLY PHANT! teehehehehehee

    OK, now back to email.

  4. PENNY! You are my first visitor tonight as the world spins and we are having fun in our respective homes. You with your fantastic furniture, me with my music, my wild ideas, and me painting furniture.

    Thank you dear friend for your kind words on my post. We all need reminders about giving more and taking less! Enjoy your evening - I will raise my tea cup toward the west, wishing you were here.

    (LOVE THIS MUSIC!) Lillyphant is getting very comfortable on that loveseat! I think she will fall asleep on it!

  11. Penny, first of all I've lovin' the music of Ella Fitzgerald. She is a favorite of ours. This blue couch looks like one of those sweet vintage couches that you see in the old movies. And the white loveseat hehehe. It is so nice to see all the different creations that you work on, and they truly warm my heart every time.

    Hello Lilly. I do remember you, and you're as cute as ever. Have a peaceful Sunday, Penny, and Yes, the vineyards in Temecula are beautiful. I've been there several times.

    love,
    ~Sheri

  24. Oh Penny, she is absolutely gorgeous, as is the cute little mouse on her blue sofa below! I adore your sweet and skillful work. Maybe you have already heard from Anita, that i'd like to share one or two of your creations in the winter issue of my magazine, KidslLife - along with an article about Nowhere and Anita. Your mouses and rats bring Nowhere to life and i know our readers will love them! How shall i credit you - which name shall i use? You can get back to me over mvs@kidslife-magazin.de.
    I look forward to hear back from you soon! Love for a happy day!
