Black Cat, Jack 0 Lantern and spider in the light of a full moon Table topper





$48.00 plus 10.00 shipping  SOLD


27" X 27" table topper.  This will look great on any style table, square or round.  I love using a table topper as an alternative to the table runner or place mats.  It is such a great way to bring art to your table.

I use a heavy weight canvas that I prepare for paint by preshrinking the fabric and hemming with mitered corners.

I prim both sides the table square and add two coats of base color to decorated side. Sanding is done between coats and finally the design is painted. After paint cures I apply several coats of polyurethane to both sides. This will protect from moisture. The finishing touch is rubbing on and buffing off some Johnson's floor wax for extra protection.

Meet Aeslin, the Little Irish Witch of Vision. Aeslin is trying to get her woodland treasures home so she can whip up one of her potions. Unfortunately for her, Aeslin's critters must be aware of her intentions as they attemp to scram out of her basket.

Aeslin is a 15" soft sculptured doll of my own creations. She can be hung from the loop on her back or sitting pretty on a shelf.

Aeslin's facial features are are needle sculpted and her mouth and eyes are hand painted. She holds a hand painted paper mache' basket in her hand that contains a spider and a frog that were hand sculpted with paperclay.

Aeslin's hat is black felt with some adornments of dyed cheese cloth and sweet annie. Her boots are hand painted and the laces are stitched. Her bloomers and under dress are of a flannel homespun. Her black coat has a hand painted star design to add to her mystical witchiness. Aeslin's hair is sheep wool I purchased on a trip to Ohio.
