The Fairy Chair

Design Team Project
By Marfi Bradford

The Fairy Chair

When I first saw this gorgeous image on my collage CD from Lisa Kettell, I knew I had to use it.
The image itself is called 'Take the fair face of woman'
I think she looks like a fairy:)


Supplies:
Collage CD from Lisa's shop
moss
artificial flowers
butterflies
glitter
small chair
hot glue
glue gun



Directions:
Hot glue moss to the chair seat
glue image to chair back
take the flowers apart and arrange them around image and on the moss. Add butterflies.
paint glitter onto flowers.

Now it's all ready for a fairy to rest on!




Tips:
you can find small decorative chairs at craft stores or yard sales.
use tulle or ribbon to make a skirt around the chair.
a small pillow can be used instead of moss.

Have a great Sunday! Marfi!

Dr.Wambatt's Faerie Collector!

Here is another project using my steampunk faerie paper, the faerie tile paper. These are steampunk faeries turned into a pocket book and faerie box called:
Dr.Wambatt's Faerie Collector!

The one sheet of paper can yield a few projects. I made the steampunk faerie banner, 3 faerie wands and this projects using one sheet of this scrapbook paper!

This project doubles as an accordian folded book, and a box theater! For directions on how to make an atc sized accordian folded book, pick up a copy of my book: Altered Art Circus for directions on how to make it!

Here are some photos of the project!

Here it is closed with the faeries tucked into it, complete with their wands:

This photo shows how I closed it, using 2 metal brads and dmc metallic thread:

This shows the book opened:
The book itself is made from my Apothecary Potion Paper, Aqua grunge luggage paper and left overs from my steampunk faerie paper. The top sections of the book are pockets, which the faeries and their wands slide into.

These are the Faeries and Their Wands:


The Book turned into a Faerie Box/Theatre:

I used Zip Dry to glue the papers together to make the book, I sanded down the edges of the folds and inked/distressed w/Lipstick Ink-Distress Inks-Ranger Ink.

I used Art Glitter on two of the faerie and Antique Silver glitter from Martha Stewart on the other faerie!

Now here is another project you can make using the faeries: Faerie Wands!
For this project just glue a wooden dowel to the back of the faeries.
