I used a thick material for the carpet at the bottom of the jar and made a basket by layering pva glue over strands of wool that I draped over a small plastic deodorant can lid, then when they became hard I wove more wool around them.
Nanna was fixed into place on her rocking chair and I made a small magazine for the table.
I wound some small balls of wool and added pins as knitting needles. Some I used in the basket and some I used in the lid after I covered its base with black card.
Once the scene was set I made a ball of wool charm from wire and some tags that I hung from ribbon around the jar neck.
Donna- this is adorable!!!! I see you have been very busy while I've been away :)
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you back Kim. Thank you x
ReplyDeleteLove little scenes in jars! :) Back in college, a friend of mine did tons and tons of mini scenes in jars. They were gorgeous, as are yours! I also did a knitting basket but I think I need to re-do it... not entirely pleased with the results.
