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
