The last time I wanted
to chat so much was many moons ago… Sunny weather fosters the release of
positive energy and creative thinking.

I’ve
just joined to a wonderful website with handicraft, “Crafty Blogs”, which is a
definite list of crafting blogs in the UK. I’m 471st in the
ranking, which I still find very nice. Now, one may imagine how huge the
number of craftsmen in the UK
is, even though this is only a sample. “Crafty Blogs” is not all; you can also
find “Top 50 Crafters” or “Crafty Sales” the list of small
Handmade Craft websites in the UK.
I become a fan of a great British programme called “Victorian Farm,”
broadcasted by BBC2 long time ago.
Although
my casual clothes are very classic and my taste in decorating of our spot
depends on the season of the year, the programme is an enormous design
inspiration for me. I've been trying to
start preparing my huge rustic wall clocks collection, which is to be shown at a
nearby gallery, for a long time now, but I lost the feeling in my finger after
sculpting in a piece of oak wood which was as hard as a rock. Therefore, I
decided to take a break and focus on something different - unique decor and
home decorations.
The
hanger I made for the hallway wall or bathroom is not only designed for hanging
hats or cotton towels on, but it also comprises an important home decor
accessory. I think it can be also treated as a painting made in Victorian
style. The whole work was demanding. I made the hanger with the use of a number
of decorative techniques: decoupage, crackling, pittorico shading, high reliefs
as well as gilding.
