Primitive Folkart Hallowe'en Jack

This is my first Halloween offering for this year. This is actually the proto-type for my new pattern. Jack is hanging out in his long stocking which is 22" from to toe to cuff. It has been stained, painted, and stained again(osnaburg). The cuff has been made then attached. Jack , himself, will measure in at 20" tall. With his Top hat he is 23". He too has been made out of stained and painted osnaburg. His nose and mouth are black wool. His eyes are black and tan wool with sewn on seed beads for pupils. The Top hat is painted and stained osnaburg. I added a strip of orange for the trim and then added a Aged square of osnaburg with the letter"H" stamped on it. He is wearing a long shirt simply made out of stained osnaburg with rusty bells down the front. His trousers are also stained osnaburg with handpainted stripes in black and orange. His boots are black with tiny sewn on rusty bells. Jack's collar is a overdyed wool.His pet bat sits atop of a stick that sits in his stocking. The bat is in 2 seperate pieces that have been sewn together. The wings were lightly stuffed and sculpted. Latst but not least is the Banner that has been attached to the front of the stocking. All made of osnaburg wit the word "HALLOWEEN" stamped down the front! There is tons of painting, and sticthin in this piece! Keep Jack in his stocking or let him hang out on a shelf or in a chair.The price for Jack includes shipping! Thanks again! Happy Hallowe'en !!!

Ooak Sculpted Snowman Votive Candle Holder


This is Francine, an adorable snowgirl votive candle holder. She will also hold a tea light if you prefer! I know it's summer, but I am such a snowman fan, that when the mood strikes me to make one, I just go with it! I wish these pictures showed how pretty she really sparkles!

Details: She is almost 8" tall. She was sculpted with an air-dry clay over a ball glass canning jar. I put her on a terra cotta base that I painted and added german glass glitter and vintage looking mica. The snowgirl face was painted and sealed, the sparkle in her eyes are Swarovsky crystals. She is wearing a knit hat with a pretty bow and sparkle button. The glass votive container is removable. The votive candle is included. Her collar is feathers that I removed from an old coat I found in a second hand store many many years ago. She was finished off all over with german glass glittter and vintage style mica flakes. I love burning candles and this is such a cute way to do it!
