I was into
woodwork the year I made these.
|
 |
The year I did these,
we were remodeling the house. On Dec. 24th, I still didn't have
the ornaments made for my family. I had some wooden hearts I
had already cut out...so...I painted them very quickly with permanent
markers.
|
Thus the
words on the back.
Hurry!
Hurry! Hurry!
|
|
These were one of
the favorites. I cut the wood shapes out and dressed them.
|
Three of
the dalmations.
|
In 1992,
I couldn't decide, so I did 2 designs. They were also wood cutouts
I did, then painted & decorated. The pin cushion is a wooden
bead cut in half and painted.
|
The names
on Santa's list are actually family members. I made his glasses
from small gold wire. The bifocal is a drop of hot glue.
|
His hat
was the end of a finger on a childs glove. His body was part
of a broom handle.
|
I dried
fruit and strung it on my wooden gingerbread couple.
|
This was
another quick one. It is a paint brush.
|
This rabbit
couple swung on the tree limbs.
|
These were
the 1998 ornaments. They are bells. I have the mold and poured,
fired and china painted them. They probably had 10 firings. The
boys got the boys and the girls got the girls.
|
This was
one of the several designs I made in 2004. (The year I made 250.)
The legs are bells and I made one for each of the teenage girls
at church.
|
Notice the
little note in the bird's beak.
|
This was
the note.
|
This is
the back & front of the 2000 ornaments. I had fired china
paint decals on them and added filler paint & trees.
|
- These were
1997.
- Boys got
blue and girls got pink.
