Its the 1st of the month so its a new CHALLENGE over at VANILLA SUGAR...sweetly handmade. The idea of these challenges is to make gifts...for yourself or for others and also to prepare a bit for Christmas :) The challenge for you this month is
BIRDS / BIRDHOUSES
I found a really cheapy birdhouse in a local garden centre which I tarted up! I slapped on gesso before painting it with acrylics. The main part of the house is in fact soft yellow but its showing up as white. The sides were decorated with flowers inside window boxes made of card.
The little birds were bought from a local gifty shop and I just had to make a little banner for the lovebirds hahaha! The little ladybirds are from my stash which I have had for ever. They come in handy now & again!
Thank you so much for looking today, HUGS XXX
