Time for Craft

I am deeply in love with wood. I love wooden funiture, I like picking up dropped branches for decorations, I'll bring back nice and useful wooden board/plank that my neighbor thrash away, I'll keep my overdue pussy willow for christmas... So much so that I can't waste any single pieces not to put them in good use. This is another unused plank turned into a decorative piece again. As always, I'll spray some adhesive and wrap the wood with a canvas liked cloth. Then, I'll do the artwork. This time is a 'feather'. To create that feathery strokes, I used a type of water-based pen. With firm and steady hands, I left the pen marks on the cloth, one at a time, some lightly while some more obvious. And there you see, nice?

Didn't really have nice picture here again, but this was what I did to decorate my son's bedroom with a farmhouse motive on the wall without adding any stress to my pockets. The small little window was camouflaged with a picture cut-out from polyfoam. I collected them from the packaging that came with fridge carton box. My neighbor somewhere bought the fridge, I have the polyfoam sheets that potected it from dent, lol! I made a turnable windmill out of a recycled board dismantled from a wooden orange crates collected from NTUC supermarket here in Singapore. A perfume spray bottle cap was used as the center piece of the windmill. 5 pieces of the light weight wooden propeller were attached to it and was screwed on to the wooden board. Some stencilling was done to the wall and my boy was given the opportunity to 'scribble' the wall this time. He did some stamping on the wall with animals, farm house and tractor shaped sponge stamps. The color used for the wall are
