Finally, back to painting!

This weekend I got back to painting for this years shows. My first show of the year is the Kottage Kupboard at Weber County Fairgrounds in Ogden Utah, the date of the show is May 4-7th.

Here are some pictures of a black rooster design that I painted on an old popcorn popper, double coffee pot, two different types of teapots, an oil can, a milk can looking container and a pitcher.

Sorry I haven't blogged in a while! My sister passed away right before Christmas, I painted my bedroom and also redesigned my web site.......so..... I will be back to painting this week. While your waiting for me to post new pictures of the items I am painting for this year take a look at my re-designed web site and let me know what you think!

I have really enjoyed sculpting these great guys, can't wait to start up again! Got to the the craft room cleaned first!

Etsy Items

Just listed a few items on Etsy (www.etsy.com/listings/640538681) or my shop Country Hollow.

Santa Gourd Pedestals

Just finished 7 great hand sculpted Santa gourds on pedestals. Six of the Santa's are on old wood candle sticks, 1 is on an old wood spool. They are all real gourds that I sculpted with an air dry clay. Each has a piece of vintage jewerly added to the brim of their hats, the Santa on the spool also has a vintage bracelet around the base. All 7 of these great guys, plus some big gourds, that I am finishing up this weekend, will be for sale next Saturday (Nov. 20th)at Unique Boutique in Idaho Falls. Those that do not sell in Idaho will be available on my new Esty site.
