Hi Everyone - It has been a while...I have been so busy!
Late September I displayed my art from both of my original Etsy Shops (Babdoyan & Bajidoo) at the "Fall in Love with Handmade" craft show in Orlando, FL. I was very pleased with the outcome of that show...even though it was incredibly hot! I got sun burn that day.
Then I have been painting and drawing like crazy, getting ready for the Grand opening of "Twist of my Wrist" Bangle Boutique in West Palm Beach Florida...Where I have agree to work with Mr. John Bandy (Boutique Owner and Entrepreneur). I will be sending 6 to 7 of my bangles to West Palm Beach for that event.
Finally I open yet a third shop on Etsy for my hand painted Lampshades, the Shop is named "HelixDesign"... Here are a few of the shades displayed there:
This is the Golden Peacock, No2
Number 2 because the original Golden Peacock (a slightly different design) sold some months back.
This is a shade I named Victorian Fossil the stylized fern reminded me of the fossil images you often see in the museum gift shops.
Then I decided to add a bit more glitz and flair using Mosaic tiles along with my paintings and I came up with "Daisies at High Tea"
I guess I had the bug to paint shades cause I kept on going...I love Dragon Flys...so I have to create a shade with dragon flys and Dandelions...Here it is:
After Dragon Flys who can resist Ladybugs?
So I designed a little bedside table shade with a version of my "Leafy Green Lady Bug" painting on it:
To See the entire Lampshade Collection ---CLick on any of th pictures above or the link posted below. Thanks for stopping by "Under the Compass Moon"...which Ironically was the name of my very first lampshade design. Regards, Brenda.
