new piece!

Friday, February 06, 2009

In my collection, I have some very old Shakespeare books that are almost so far gone, they are not worth much on the market. But luckily for me, their pages have provided wonderful art material to use in my creations.

"Shakespeare's Raven" came together using many lovely old elements. The pendant was the base of an antique drawer-pull, topped off with a very old button. The drop was made from an original chandelier crystal, Shakespearian text and a vintage raven image.

Shakespeare's Raven by you.

Hope you are all getting through the cold winter months! (for those of you lucky enough to live in year round sunshine...I have to tell you I'm a bit jealous at the moment!!!)

Don't worry--winter will go away, it always does ;)
Have a wonderful week-end.
