An Angel Gets Wings

As you know, I've been making angel wings.



The angel you see here, had no wings.




I decided to use one of the wings I made recently.




I screwed it into the back of my wingless angel.  I also added a hanger.




Layers of paint unifies it.

Metal Angel Wings

I've been going through my stash of salvaged metal.



I seem to be in a metal cutting mood, and, what I've been creating mostly, are angel wings.  I drew a template, and, cut each piece by hand.





The fleur-de-lis embellishments I added are salvaged pieces.  Honestly, I can't remember where I got either of them.  The abyss is endless.






These wings have no embellishment, but, they have a fun pattern.






Oh, yes.  I'm still easing along with my Christmas decor, and, keeping things simple.




A little bit at a time.

See ya soon.

Getting The Christmas Out

I've been getting the Christmas decor out, and, playing with glitter.



The little Christmas sign is a salvaged piece of wood.  I painted it white, stamped on the message, and, gave it a dusting of spray glitter.  The edges are sprinkled with the same glitter I used on the angel wings.

I cut the angel wings out of chipboard, painted them white, and, sprinkled on a bunch of vintage glitter.

I picked up the glitter at an estate sale a long time ago, and, never used it until now. I sealed it with spray.  So, the glitter stays put.





It was hard to capture the true shimmer in these photos.





Honestly, I'm taking my time decorating.  I took this photo of my tree, and, I've already changed it.




No rush, rush.  No hurry, hurry.

I'll be have fun decorating, and, share more photos soon.
