Weekend Update

 

I am always glad and surprised when I get an order for  my boats and houses on Etsy

This weekend there was a special order for a similar boat to something I had previously made,

and sold

 

This was the draft version for my customer in the U.S

 

The requested addition of portholes, two on each side was very very pleasing

I hope the customer will be pleased too!

 

Canada Day

 

 

Happy Canada Day!

 

The two lighthouse I made at the weekend are ready for delivery

 

and this little beauty is packaged up en route to jolly old England, thanks to an Etsy buyer!

 

Two birthdays coming up this week so I have been making gifts

 

 

Say it with flowers

 

Driftwood, nails and glass beads!

 

No need to water and last forever.

Productive Weekend

 

There always seems lots of interest with the driftwood houses I've made so this collection has been added to my Etsy shop today

 

 

Small Pale Green

 

 

Small Pale Blue

 

 

The White House

 

Medium Blue with laundry

 

It's always great to do different stuff.

But customers like what they like!

 

 

Starting the weekend right!

 

Finally finished of this trio of Green Tug Boats

Experimenting with some colors and details

I love them!

More Houses

 

A house for Margaret

 

A house for Andrea

 

 

The joy of a long weekend is plenty of time to get creative

 

These two houses were special requests and have turned out beautifully

 

I used nails for the chimney pots and bark for the roof on the tiny birdhouse

 

The pale colors have really brought out the grain and textures in the wood

 

I hope they love them as much as I do
