Started as one of those $1 papermache birdhouses from craft stores (I bought it for .25 at a thrift store years ago). The house is covered with paper clay. The legs are paper clay over wire. The book is a kids board book covered paper and painted with gold. Embellished with a string of autumn leaves, miniature gravestones & Tim Holtz bones & eyeball.
Omg I’m obsessed! It’s wonderful. You did an amazing job. I’m jealous!!! Did you post this on “Art I Did Because of Coronavirus” on facebook? Or did I imagine that?
Love it so much! I was just contemplating doing a collage of Baba Yaga’s hut for Drawtober’s “Folklore” prompt this week. This looks so awesome it may just inspire me to actually make my collage.
mine! it really is fantastic! it’s going to be one of those pieces that will be displayed all year round. each person that has seen it so far has marveled at it. so fun!
This is so much fun and I love that you took something as simple as a papermache birdhouses that we see all the time and transformed it into this. It’s incredible!
