Hi my friends,
Just finished the punchin' part and the final finish is yet
to come. This is my "LIBERTY" hang tag design.
The first picture shows
it without a tea dye.
Me, being a fan of primitive stuff that
looks olde and worn,
I went and tea stained it... that's the 2nd
picture.
So now you know. Would you prefer it before or after? At this point I have no choice and I am happy with the after.
Can you see the seed beads I added in the strawberry?
Can you see the seed beads I added in the strawberry?
Those are french
knots for the 13 stars which
I did not stain in the after.
It measures
6" tall and 2 3/4" wide.
Used Valdani threads for all of it.
Will have a
pattern for this in the very near day or two or so.
I have some other
patriotic designs available on my https://www.etsy.com/shop/villagefolkart.
Come and visit.
Come and visit.
Enjoy with Folk Art Hugs, and much Peace,
Barb ...
As with all my waffling, I like the brightness of the red and yellow in the first one but the white toned down in the second. How's that?
ReplyDeleteHi Marly, Thanks my friend for the comment... It would be a boring world if we all liked the same stuff.
DeleteAnother wonderful design!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lauren ... I enjoyed your pictures of the 'Hook In'. All so beautiful and inspiring.

Simply beautiful! With this particular design, I like the after. Looks like just the right amount of prim! :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Sharon... I prefer the more prim too. Good thing cause I can't go back.
DeleteHope your weather is warmer. We will be 70 and windy...Can do without the wind.
Have a great day, Barb
