So, I am finished... and here are some pictures of the two finished projects.
One is a Hollywood Silver Screen Star Theme:
It includes tissue paper, pictures of starlets, a glass door knob, some beaded trim , 3 small frames (which still need the mirrors inserted into them) and a silver painted metal stand.
I also finished it with about 10 coats of polycrylic.
And the other is a Nautical Theme:
It includes brown paper bag material, that I crunched up, then mod podged on the box, it also has two tin shingles with a greenish patina that are some original shingles from the 1800's that were once on our church. (I did some dumpster diving while it was being re-roofed a few years ago).
On one shingle is a brass anchor door knocker and on the other one there is a brass propeller that can actually spin. On the two sides it also has some brass drawer pulls for decorative uses. It has a porthole on the top, which can be opened to insert things inside, it has a mirror instead of a window inserted into the porthole. It has 5 coats of polycrylic and sits on a wooden base.
I can't wait to see all of the boxes which will be on display in various places around the city until the auction on June 7th.
