" Summer Garden " Framed scene

size 5.5 " squared - recess size 2.75 "

The back has vintage music paper -

and 2 D ring hangers screwed in , with cord across

the top for hanging .

The small frame before the makeover -

It had a piece of burlap inside and a really

tacky looking plastic shell . So i removed them

as best i could and sanded it all . Applied various

acrylic paints to it .

Took a scrap of pale blue vintage dotted swiss fabric , backed it ,

then sewed some vintage millenery flowers with the

stalk still attatched and sewed them in place

with embroidery thread .

Added a wire / net butterfly

And the odd grass accents ..

I`ve decided - to offer this piece as a trade swap -

If anyone is interested ;o)

I am looking for some craft supplies -

Like these small birds which come in different

sizes - 6 on each piece of the card - or something simliar .

And some plastic eggs - in various sizes

and if possible - cream / white ones -

so i can colour them myself ;o)

Also i cannot seem to find - some white

paper photo corners approx 60 of them .

I`ve seen plastic ones but had no luck with the

paper ones - perhaps it`s a dying thing

with going digital on photographs !!

So if you`d like to do a swap -

get in touch please !! ;o)
