A Wee Baby Snowman

This tiny snowman measures about 5" tall by about 2.5" wide.  Dad and big brother snowmen are going to new homes, but before they do, I'll photograph the whole family.  Mom's still in production.  I had a lot of fun making holiday mosaics this year.





And starting tomorrow, I'll carry a few of my mosaics in my booth at the River Market Antique Mall.  I have a small display case and it will be fun creating pieces just for the mall.  Here are a couple.  First up, a butter dish in pink with skulls:




And I tried my hand at cutting out a skull.  I love this old medicine bottle - NOT something I recommend since it contains mercury!

JOY JOY JOY

I've been talking about how much I love my new jigsaw.  I wanted a "Dr. Suess" looking stocking, not a traditional fat one, so I cut it out!!  This one features a great rosette I picked up at a recent bead show.  It's a biggie - 17" tall by about 11" wide at the foot.





Next up, a candy cane in white, red and green stripes.  Another large piece at 17" tall by about 6" wide at the cane.

Rockin Around the Christmas Tree

I cut this tree out with my jigsaw and it really turned out to be fun and festive.  My friend, Teresa, bought it for her mom and is giving it to her early so she can enjoy it throughout the Christmas season.  I love it when people give art as gifts!



These carolers are actually bells with clackers still in-tact.




I did a post about a snowman and this is his son.  Mom and baby to follow soon.  (SOLD, thanks!)




A perfect example of why I never throw anything away.  These buttons are pie pieces to a Trivial Pursuit game!


Tall hat complete with styrofoam cherries!


Okay, next up, a candy cane and stocking.  Got em cut out and I'm ready to break some dishes!

The skull is for someone who wants to commemorate a loved one who passed far too soon.
