Seasons in Thyme: 2013

Thursday, May 2, 2013

A new way of painting and a start of a new business....

I have started painting again after many years and I have decided that I will sell at a few local craft shows and fairs in my area. I have also started a Etsy shop. I know a few of you still check back here from time to time....and no I won't be painting crocks this time but I hope you like what you see.

Visit my heartfelt Etsy Store

I will be sending newsletters out like I did before with coupons and show schedule updates.....please sign up. I hope to see you at a upcoming show!

Candle Boxes

Candle Box with Battery I love how these came out. I even grunge up the candle to make the drips show. A LED bulb gives off a soft yellow flicker and uses AAA battery that is replaceable. This comes with the cute pip berries around candle. Available with birdhouse, plaid pumpkin, harvest pumpkin or favorite saying with star garland.$16.00 (inc battery)

Handpainted Stoneware Crocks

I handpaint on many sizes of crocks. Most designs can be placed on any size crock. I do ship orders. But because crocks and jar candles have alot of weight to them, I will calculate your shipping cost after order placement. You will have an 5.00 charge for shipping and then I will contact you if additional is needed. I also offer pick ups....I do a show every weekend till December 15th.

Painted Candle Jars

I paint on a variety of jar candles.....I love the look and feel of the glass when I get done. My jars are primed, painted, glazed, crackled, stained (love that part) and them glazed again to protect my painting. They have a great glow coming through the paint and when you have burn the candle just place a little votive candle inside and use forever. Candles range from $ 10.00 to $25.00

Wooden Signs

Wooden signs are available is so many sizes. Hang from black wire. Great for doorknobs, banisters or shelves.
