Woodland Animals

The latest two papercuts for my Etsy shop. A cute little set... I hope!

Owl

This is my newest papercutting. Cut from a 15 x 15cm piece of origami paper.

Traditional Folk Art House 18cm x 18cm

This is a new papercut done in the traditional scherenschnitte style. I have made it into a giclee print card for my Etsy shop.

Oldy Worldy Kitchen papercut ACEO

This is another miniature for my Etsy shop - it's an ACEO measuring 3.5" x 2.5".

Papercut ACEOs

I have created some ACEOs (3.5" x 2.5") for my Etsy shop. They are collaged papercuts mounted on mountboard. Fun and relatively quick to make.

Handmade Christmas Baubles

OK - so I know these aren't papercuttings either, and I know I should've been doing laundry, or cleaning or cooking or anything else useful for that matter...but they were so much fun to make! I was considering making them to sell at my son's school Christmas fair, but then my friend pointed out that selling something to kids that's jam-packed full of pins, might not be the best idea from a health and safety point of view! I also considered selling them on Etsy, but I'm not sure that they'll exactly fly out the door.

So instead, I'll just make them because they're fun and I can always give them away as presents! After all, what's a Jewish girl like me going to do with a load of sequined Christmas baubles???!!! I'll have to have a Chanukah bush this year instead.

To make them, all you need is some polystyrene balls, sequins, beads and sequin pins... oh and lots of patience. These balls are only 60mm in diameter but each one has about 500 sequins on it.

Inspiration

I just love this gorgeous packaging for Diptyque - I had to share it!
