Winkle Fairy Furniture

Miniature Bookcase, made with paper clay

A Fairy house is not complete without the addition of a bookcase. I am not a big reader myself, I never seem to find the time. Before bed would be nice, but I fall asleep and don't comprehend a thing. I guess, I was born to work with my hands. But I do love Books!

Miniature Apple barrel

Made with wooden beads, the barrel I have had for many years. I thought it would be nice to incorporate it.

Good morning everyone! Busy day for me today. Many WIP (works in progress) that need finished on the table. A couple more bunnies, A new punch needle pattern, and finishing up a rug hooking I started before Christmas. Stop back if you can, to see the finished work or friend me on Facebook at:

Wishing everyone a wonderful day, Stay warm.    Kate

Fairy "Tails"

Well it's a cold day in Pittsburgh  the snow is falling. 

But inside Briar Cottage it's starting to look like Spring. Easter will soon be here and I have been working hard on bunnies as we approach the season. This is the second bunny, he was adorable even from the start. I really never know what is going to come out of this head of mine, except for the fact that it will be some form of Bunny.

All about Fairy Tails---he or she is sitting on a wooden paper mached book that has a painting with clouds and castles.

The book he or she is holding and is made from paper mache, then painted with the same castles and clouds.

The bunny is paper mache with fiber whiskers.

Fairy "Tails"

Is for Sale. Lots of Hand painting on this little fellow. He or She is a one of kind piece. Definitely a must have for EaSTER.

I am asking $69.00 for this little sculpture, plus travel fare. PA tax will be added if you live in PA. 

US only.

Have a wonderful Day, stay warm!

Fairy House 4

Fairy House 4

Good morning everyone! The Fireplace, walls and roof are complete. The basic structure is finished, now for some detail. This is the fun part for me. Painting and adding detail. I think this will be a four room house....Kitchen..Living room..bedroom..and garden terrace. I am thinking the colors will be neutral, natural, so as not to attract attention in the woods. Do you think fairies tend to gather trinkets, I do! Trinkets tend to go missing around Briar Cottage, It has to be the mice or the fairies, I believe it's both. 

Have a wonderful day,

Kate

FAiry HoUse (Part One)

I have been wanting to do a fairy house for a long time. I decided last year to start with some aged wood so the venture started and then it stopped. I was going to throw it out, then a good friend of mine talked me out of it. Last week in my spare time, what spare time you ask? Well, I should say made time..I started back at it. It will be made from found items, Winkle juice (paper mache) and fiber. Follow along with me here on my Blog or on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/kate.gillery.
