Newly painted canal ware for 2012

Just finished painting a load of pots, buckets and all sorts of other things for the coming cruising season on the canals.  Its traditional canal ware, but done in my own particular style.  Looking at it, you wouldn't think I consider this minimalist would you.

Turquoise and Silver Dragonfly

Turquoise and Silver Dragonfly. 

Size is 12x6cm but they can be made in any size and any colour.

They are on the wesite and, if you're quick, they are on Ebay at a bargain price from seller 'getitoffpat' 



Special Edition Spider

Her name is Precious.  Pink, purple and silver, she is quite large.  The body is a pearly purple plastic bead, the head is a purple crystal and as you can see the legs are made up of pink pearls, purple crystals and tiny bright pink seed beads with silver bugles.  Don't worry if you don't like her in these colours, I can make any combination of colours.

Sarah Spider

She's on Ebay at the moment for £3.20 plus p&p

Cute little comb made from pearl beads and crystals.

Golden Brown Spider Brooch

An autumnal spider brooch in golds and browns with a hint of silver frost.

Purple Spider Brooch

I just love this one and have to admit I've worn it a courple of times.  I've got 3 more of these rectangular beads left.  Don't forget to look at the website.

Blue/Black Spider Brooch

A Spider Brooch.  It measures 7 x 4cm and it sits on a silver tone brooch pin.  The body is a blue/black bead with black rainbow crystals in the legs.  Would look great on a coat or jacket.  If you fancy buying it, go to www.portias-crafts.co.uk. 

Emerald Dragonfly

A pretty little emerald and gold dragonfly for sale at www.portias-crafts.co.uk.  Really catches the light when hung in a window.  I slightly reduced the size of my dragonflies now to 6x6cm, but increased the number of crystals.  I think it looks better, don't you?  Have a look at the website and compare them.
