Altered Wise Owl Wall Decor
06 April 2012 | By admin in Altered Art, BirdsHi everyone! I’m Erin Bassett, part of the Art Assembly team here at Basically Bare, and I’m so excited to be doing my first blog post today and sharing with your this adorable little owl!
I took one of the felt owl Stack-a-Bellies and traced it on a piece of fabric and then cut it out a bit smaller then the original owl. Then I frayed the edges and sewed the fabric and felt owl pieces together in a messy sewing style. I love the way she turned out!
I also had this little embroidered heart sitting on my desk for a week or so now. It was left over from another project I was working on and I thought it would work out great on this. I took a big safety pin, which was originally silver, and painted it with some “Saffron” Glimmer Glaze from Tattered Angels so that it would match the screw that’s on the embroidery hoop.
I also had to put a bow on it, of course! I just pinned it around the embroidery hoop screw along with a little tag that I wrote on with a Zig pen.
Now I just have to find a place in my home to put her up!
