Winter Weekend Wood Working!

 Enchanted tree art...still looking for homes!


Hello Lovelies!

          I hope today finds you inside and TOASTY, as it appears much of the country is in the midst of serious winter lock-down, the likes of which are unheard of here. I shudder to think that later TODAY I am spending most of my day outside in something like 5 degrees Farenheit weather! PLUS, there's MORE SNOW in the forecast!


But for now, I wanted to show you the fruits of a WHOLE weekend of art labor!
I do believe I mentioned that this year I would make more time for art, and I had that rare opportunity when the whole weekend presented itself! Apparently, I got QUITE carried away with the woodworking, and so I've got new slew of Woodenware:


First--there was this box, that I mentioned in my last post:

Wood Burned "Stars And Birds"

YOU CAN FIND IT HERE

Now...the rest of the woodenware!

TA-DA!  

Up for grabs today:

"Fox Hunt," a deeply woodburned pendant, ornament, decoration.

The Fox is actually hunting birds (indeed--NO animals were harmed in the making of this art piece!).

Slightly smaller than the heart and hare pendant seen in the pic at the top of this post. 

One sided, can be worn as jewelry, or to decorate the home. This took a bit of work to get the dark color.

Because I liked the way "Fox Hunt" came out, I then did a slightly lighter burn for "Rabbit Run". Rabbit and Star motif. Same size as "Fox Hunt." One sided, and can also be worn as jewelry, or used as an ornament.

SEE MORE HERE.

And finally, for a touch of old world wood burning, I've made another Valentine-ish woodburning with hearts and birds, based on European folk art, the sort of thing native to my mother's country.

This ornament is DOUBLE SIDED. Here is side one...

Here is side 2....................

So hop on over to the Vagabond Shoppe to see those and other whimsical lovelies...

Meanwhile, I am still working on what I intend to do with Vagabond Creations as a whole, but it seem as though, right now, it's being overtaken with woodburning...


Speaking of future plans...
I also have THIS painted work coming up. She just needs a few details and edging. I have to say, I'm feeling a bit shy about branching into actual PAINTED work, since most people know me as a doll artist....but I actually started out, as an artist, with painted works....

Anyhow, I'm hoping to finish this lovely sometime this week....

And then THIS is the next victim of my pyromania item being prepped with the wood burner.

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a....spoon?!

Find out in the next post!

Until next time, friends, enjoy a magical day!
