A small exhibition

Hello dear readers

The staff at the nursing home where my husband is being cared for asked me to exhibit some of my work, offering me a small glass cabinet for the display.  Our New Year happens at the end of
this month, the exhibition must be as soon as possible. It will last from Sunday next week till the end of October. It's going to be one of the New Year and other October holidays attractions.

This kept me fully occupied for the last two weeks, making and stocking 3 new market straw stands.

All the hats were already in my stash.  The rest I had to create from a roll of string, raffia, jute,
 paper, etc. And, most important Glue. The best, fast holding glue I can get here is white wood glue.












Also made a few more nutshells, which were originally intended as holiday gifts. (I'll now have to
make more for gifts.)  Another lucky find was two old wooden boxes to display the nuts in. These will be on the top shelf.







Had to clean this old purses and bags stall to make it eligible for the show.




The glass cabinet has 4 shelves, each about 40 cms square.  Since it will not be easy to
see the bottom one, I intend to just display either the mini houses or the bags stall on it.

Wish you all a lovely creative rest of the week, with blessings.

  11. This is exciting news - how I wish I could see the faces of the visitors who will discover your wonderful work and wondering how talented one must be to create something awesome like this. I foresee a lot of smartphone pictures being taken! But don't you dare to place the nutshell houses at the bottom shelf - these tiny masterpieces need the best place to make sure the people can discover all the fantastic details you've added. And as Jodi already said - I too hope you're going to share a lot of pictures with us. But I must say I hope you're going to add some of your beautiful flower pots - your flowers need to be displayed too!

    Hugs
