I love autumn
and working with warm autumnal colours, so for this week’s theme of OWLS, I
knew exactly where to start. Last year I
tie-dyed some fabric as the base for an Autumnal textile panel. I used a leftover scrap of this to cover the front
and back of my tag, leaving the edges frayed.
Next I painted on
the outline of an owl with gold glitter paint, adding a bit of detail for
feathers. (I used Pebeo glitter touch 3D paint) Behind the owl I drew an oval
hollow and filled it in with black marker pen.
Next I attached
two die-cut leaves, touched up with brown glitter paint.
For his beak and
eyes I sewed on beads and sequins.
To echo the owls
golden eyes I have threaded two beaded rings onto the bottom of the tag. I used ring-size memory wire for these. The
tag is finished with a simple gold thread.
This shot shows
the tie-dye colours on the back of the tag.
Here is the front of the tag on a plainer background:
The raspberry wine is looking
good! Apple and blackberry wine now too! Cheers!
Bye for now, Jane xx
