On the forum I visit, we recently had a challenge to create a mixed media piece with a spring theme. This was my piece, It is a nest in a jar. I found this flat sided jar and had to use it for something. I made the nest with raffia and used a skeleton leaf in side the jar. I put one stamped egg (inka) so it stood up in the nest. I also sprinked a little flower soft into the jar for a bit of colour. I stuck the large bird from inka to the outside of the Jar. I glues some floral fabric and a fake flower to the lid,
The hardest thing was photographing it!
that's very cute Joanne. love the Inka bird.

ReplyDeleteWhere's the tag gone?- that was a perfect little addition.
ReplyDeleteLove this- bet it was a really good size to work with.
I think alot of my favourite creations of yours have been 3D pieces.
Oh, I'm so glad that you persisted in your photography. This is so very unique and lovely. The birds are so busy getting their nests ready at this time of year. Wonderful piece.
