The Sewing Box

The Saturday class was called the sewing box but there wasn't much sewing involved. We painted two frames, hinged them together and added embellishments.



The front cover has an embossed image on a metal/card sandwich, painted and coloured with mica paste that we made from mica powder and glaze.



There is a painted quilted and beaded [so a bit of sewing] panel hung from eye hooks with jump rings, sewing themed brass charms and little bottles of beads.



The cotton reels are cast from plaster using moulds and the picture frame is filled with glossy accents.

Again it was a technique packed class, from dry brushing to making plaster embellishments, I had a great time again - there are still a few bits I want to add [if I can find them].
