Wall Plaques

Afternoon All :-) So much for writing more regularly - no sooner had I said that than the dreaded lurgy hit me and I've been fighting a cold ever since, grrrrrr.

Anyway, feeling a bit more human today so that means feeling crafty! I have some more plaques to make, I'm going to do a couple more Jesus one's to start as I sold two of these recently through my Folksy shop - one was a gift for a Vicar!! I did ask if that meant I could advertise as "approved by the Church of England" but maybe not. The colours don't come out as well as I would like on the photo's, there are several layers of paint on each plaque, distressed between coats using sandpaper and candle wax. Here are a couple of the ones I sold last month, I've got lots of ideas for new ones so better get on with it, will make sure and post tomorrow - I'm planning a Cricut day, experimenting so will make sure and show you the results.

Baby Name Plaques

The weekend at last so hope you're all having a good one. Apologies to those who tried to sign on as followers but couldn't - don't get all the technical stuff so will find out what the prob is. I finished off a wall plaque today for a special order, will attach photo but think it looks better in real life...or real wood should I say! Anyway it's stained with pink, cream and lilac paint which sounds a bit much but is really very muted and pretty...it's for a baby's room so it needs to be,

The little wooden heart has a couple of sparklies on for extra prettiness. Anyway, will hope to post more soon on the new Cricut projects ... still trying to work out all the controls but I'll get there. Catch you soon x
