Vintage China Wall Art

I have been collecting vintage china dishes for years. There are so many beautiful patterns and designs. 
 I thought it would be fun to use some of these china plates as canvases and paint some of my bird images.
It's also fun to take an old photo and use a china plate as a picture frame. A large circle hole punch makes it easy to cut the photo (I used a color copy of the original photo.) Then a bit of glue to attach the round photo to the plate.

Sail Away

Sail away with a handmade driftwood boat.
I designed and created these driftwood boat sculptures using driftwood and bits of fabric and ribbon. 
I gathered the driftwood from the beaches here on my island.
These one of a kind sculptures are perfect for a nursery or cottage beach decor. Bits of fabric are hand stitched to the sails and colorful fabric flags decorate the rigging.
 Driftwood boat sculptures are available in my shop here.
