It is a perfect Holiday gift for your mom, grandma, and friend. A gift any hostess will be happy to get.  This listing is for 3 standing flowers on a base. 

With this listing you will get 1 FREE, hand painted, greeting card.

Size: flower about 1.5" High - about 10"

Made out of Das - cold clay painted with Acrylic paint and varnished with protective finish.

Each one of my objects is hand made and hand painted so the one you get could vary slightly from the picture. Each item is unique.
ACEO - Original Acrylic Painting - Autumn Leaf - Fallen by Shirley's Art Shop


ACEO Original Painting - Summer #24 - "Fallen" - 3-1/2 x 2-1/2"

As Autumn approaches, I already have fallen leaves on my front walk. As I looked closely at this curled-up shriveled leaf, I loved the abstract shape it made and how it seems to be reaching out.

ACEO stands for Art Cards, Editions and Originals. These highly collectable yet affordable works of art always measure a standard 2.5" x 3.5". Art Cards are versatile - they can be matted and framed as a work of art, hung in groupings or collages, collected in books, traded, given as gifts, or simply enjoyed as is.

This ACEO is an original acrylic painting (NOT a print) on 140lb. cold pressed acid-free Canson Montval watercolor paper. It has been lightly varnished for durability and is signed and dated on the back.

Beautiful layers of antique lace, sheer multi color earth tone fabric, five stitch patterns, rust orange wool flowers and vintage buttons top a sturdy tight woven cream colored canvas fabric. Envelope style back also features a wood grain vintage button to help keep pillow cover snug.

Fits a 12x16 pillow form, actual pillow cover measures slightly smaller for a full fit. 

The lovely earth tone fabrics and thread let the textures take center stage giving depth to this nature inspired pillow.

The perfect home décor item for fall, with a lovely primitive feel, toss it on your favorite chair or bench and enjoy!

Well, Happy Memorial Day Weekend Everyone! With Memorial Day you expect fireworks and with these three fabulous artisans, that's just what you will get!  So let's celebrate Jewelry by NaLa, The Joy of Color, and Jenni 20 Designs!!
Let's start with Jewelry by Nala featuring unique, handmade fashion jewelry featuring Czech glass, Swarovski crystals, semiprecious stones, freshwater pearls, antiqued metals, sterling silver and other fine materials.  In the artist's own words: "I don't know what I would do if I couldn't create something beautiful.  I make what I refer to as "delicately elegant jewelry." My jewelry is designed to speak to women who want to make a beautifully subtle and feminine fashion statement. Aside from my ready made collection, I also love the challenge of creating jewelry specific to individual tastes, and I've been known to "tweak" existing pieces in my collection into custom ordered designs. Just tell me what you want, and if I can, I'll create it. I love making people happy like that."

Next up is The Joy of Color where you'll find housewares, decorative objects, and fashion accessories. In the artist's own words: "My greatest passion is for color and Pattern, Which is the origin of my shop name.  I hope my optimism, and the joy I feel when creating is reflected in my cold clay painted object (Flowers. Napkin rings and containers). Natures inspire me and make me happy so the flower motive is running through my jewelry line as well. As a minimalist at heart I try to keep the shapes as simple as possible and let the color speak. I do hope that my objects will bring you joy and happiness."  You can follow The Joy of Color on Twitter!

All her designs are handmade with love and care!  In the artist's own words: "Jenni20 started sewing and crafting in the 80s under the tutelage of her fabulously talented mother. When she’s not dreaming up some new project, Jenni either works tirelessly on adding to her fabric stash, hanging out on her vintage couch with her poodle, reading anything in print…or doing all three simultaneously!  Oh yeah, and she also teaches high school!  As a farmer's granddaughter, Jenni has always known the responsibility of being good to our land. That's why she is committed to creating housewares and gifts that will help you and your loved ones reduce and reuse!"
