140. Ornaments and Sketches Days: 384 to 393

     I had originally planned different ornaments but they were not coming out how I wanted and I just did not have enough time to figure out the issues. Because of that I went with my backup of just sets of origami stars. I ended up making five sets of seven ornaments each that all look basically identical so I only took pictures of one set. The rest of the pictures are sketch dailies for days 384 to 393. I probably wont have another post until after New Years so Happy Holidays to everyone.

57. Quilled Paper Garland

Here are my two latest pieces in my Etsy shop. The first is a quilled flower garland. This garland measures around 7 to 8 feet long and has six quilled flowers strung together with white yarn. There are two purple, two yellow, and two pink. the flowers are in a pastel color that is perfect for spring or Easter.

The next is another set of origami lucky star ornaments. These are made the same way my previous set was. This time it is a set of 12 red polka dots, with white and red yarn loops.

Over the next week I have two projects I plan on working on. The first is the quilled snoopy piece from my sketch a few post back. The second is another piece for the Etsy shop. I plan to make a set of club, spade, diamond, and heart card icons. These will be quilled magnets around the size of 4 x 4 inches. I am also thinking of making an ornament set version as well, but first I want to make the magnets.

56. Origami Lucky Stars

This is my latest item in my Etsy shop, Origami Lucky Star Ornaments a set of 10. These stars are all around 1 inch in diameter with a black ribbon attached. These stars were made with 3/4 inch wide white paper strips. Then I drew the spiral pattern on the paper before folding them into the stars. I am thinking about making a few more of these sets with different patterns and colors.

I am also working on making quilled Easter eggs, I ran into some problems with the last two so I am working on finishing them by Monday hopefully. I am also working on a quilled flower garland. I plan to make pastel flowers like my previous flowers, but only the heads of the flowers. I then plan to attach them to a piece of white yarn. I am still working on exactly how long the garland will be, how many flowers, and the size of the flowers. I am thinking that these flower heads will be smaller than my other flowers but I am not sure yet.

55. A Bird and Some Stars

This will be a big post today with lots of pictures. First is my latest Society6 print "Under the Bed." This is available in my Society6 shop.

Next is the first birthday present I am doing, woodstock from charlie brown. There are around eight pictures showing progress from beginning to the end. I am already working on the next one and that will be the snoopy one. I posted the sketches for the three I plan to do a few post back.

The next set of pictures are of lucky origami starts I have been making out of old magazines. I have boxes of old ones laying around and have been trying to figure out what to do with them. I may end up selling some of these in my Etsy shop as supplies or decoration for people in packs of one hundred stars, but I am not sure yet. These stars I am doing now are being made out of an October 19, 2009 copy of Business Week. The sizes of the stars varies so I posted some of the varying sizes next to a quarter just to give an idea of how big they are.

The last images are the good pictures of the Birthday cards I did. These two are the ones available in my Etsy shop now.

I also want to mention that my "Quilled Paper Art - Love, Heart and Arrow" was posted in the Etsy Paper Team blog. If you are interested in any paper crafts I would check out the blog here http://etsypaperteam.blogspot.com/. There are many wonderful paper items and etsy sellers it highlights.
