TIS THE SEASON................

I have put my paint brush aside for a bit because I am in full blown Primitive Christmas mode!!!  Here its the start of a slew of Santas and Snowmen.  I made them from a pattern from Tammy Franck of Rock River Stitches.  If you want a VERY simple and great pattern for Santas and Snowmen check her out on Etsy... http://www.etsy.com/shop/rockriverstitches?ref=pr_faveshops

I am also in the middle of creating my own patterns and origianls pieces as well.  Here is a set of Ornaments that I just finished and listed on Etsy....I think I am going to make a up a pattern for these.  I have to get back into making patterns for the pieces I design.

I think I have to fix the angel.....she looks mad!!!   ha!  I am also going to make her dress a little longer...it looks a little stumpy as it is.

I have a paper clay snowman head that I made about 3 years ago!! I have just not been in the mood to design a body and clothes. But I am in the mood now.... sooooo here is a Before....

Yep just the head!!! But I just have to figure out if I want to make a snowMAN or snowLady! I am pictuing a very plumpy rolly polly snowMAN we will just see where I go with it!

 I LOVE PAPER CLAY!! I made a snowlady doll but I think I am going to change the dress because I think It is a little boring.....

 

I have to make a few more heads this weekend to make more of these dolls but I have to pick out different matterial for their dress......we will see!!!

Just finished some pieces...................

I think I am running out of room in my space for FURNITURE!!!  I just finished my blanket chest and now we are my FAVORITE time of the year for primitives...

.AUTUMN AND CHRISTMAS!!  I am getting back to my sewing...finished my Halloween/Autumn additions and now I am excited to get going with Christmas!!!

 

This guy I actually made a little while ago and I love him!!!  He is all original and just a great Halloween folk art piece!

It is hard to see but he is holding a burlap bag with a black cat and the crow has a piece of candy corn!

 

Here are a few pictures of my spot at Millcity Antiques....Need to fill in some spaces but I am getting there!!

If you haven't been there and you are in the Manchester area..........YOU HAVE TO CHECK IT OUT!!  It really is worth the trip.  It is in the Old mill by the river and there are over 70 vendors mostly antiques....
