I collect tons and tons of vintage minis and never really know what to do with them. So I just sifted through them and thought to put some of them onto a large vintage feedsack background mini quilt. Let's see how it turns out.
work in progress...I would like some comments, opinions and or advice on this piece...
Found objects, acrylics.. Glass door knob,( found in a ghost town in Colo.) copper, hinges from old time ice box....In rememberance to the farmers of the world...
side view of this creepy lobster sculpture. IIRC the source lobster weighed about seven pounds. I ate him.
This Victorian-inspired crown is meant to pay homage to Marie Laveau, the iconic and storied Voodoo Queen of New Orleans. Assorted stories swirl around the Voodoo Queen and her gravesite has many visitors.
I constructed the crown out of chandelier parts, a door escutcheon, drawer escutcheons and found objects. The large central piece is an antique door escutcheon. The door knob would have gone where I placed the image of Marie Laveau. The side pieces are also antique drawer escutcheons and would have protected the wood around drawer handles on a bureau or other furniture. The large pointy metal beads that dangle on either side of the image reminded me of the okra so necessary for good gumbo and other Southern specialties. The copper heart and wings with Sterling Silver accents was made by friend and fellow-artist Erika. Finally I added in some bling with the Swarovski crystal fireballs. This piece is signed and dated and is a one-of-a-kind future heirloom.
Charm necklace is sterling silver with many little charms using glass bead mosaic, river rock, colored steel washer, lamp worked glass, garnet,etc.
about 20" long.$280.
These delightful pictures were kindly sent to Bloomfield and George and myself by the one and only Eliz. Avery. There are cosy cottage-type paintings on the back, but this side is much more interesting. We LOVE them!

ADDA's BEST & FAVs of 08- FOUND OBJECT at the TOUR DE FRANCE in LOURDES-
This was way too funny for my mom and I were in LOURDES when the TOUR DE FRANCE went through the town. Of course, with all the hype we have heard over the years, we wanted to check it out.
Well, the sidewalks were filled with folks waiting for hours for the bike race to pass.
HOURS.
..and the bikers zoomed passed so fast...well, it's a race...duh...
it was over in less than 4 minutes...impossible to take good photos....and alot of shuffling and pushing....
These ballons were attached to a pole and became detached and came racing towards us just before the bikers zoomed past.
The highlight of the race for adda
Fellow Etsian, TotusMel, practices the art of tatting and is sponsoring a challenge to declare that "Tatting is not a Lost Art". I purchased the tatted medallion from her and having just finished another entry for the Etsy Steamteam's contest "Time Flies" thought it would be fun to turn things around a bit, thus this piece "Flies' Time"! The tatted piece is fastened to a watch back plate to ensure a steampunk vibe. The 2 little flies which I have applied some special patinas to seem to puzzle over the watch face which has no hands. This lovely assemblage is riveted to a bow-shaped vintage filigree which hangs from a 16" brass chain with a similarly motley-hued patina to the flies. A safety lobster clasp secures everything. I am a trained silversmith and have assembled this piece with care to last a lifetime or more.
