Incognito Finish...

I finished another commission yesterday. I was a special clutch wallet.
I wish I could show you the front of this one. I really do, but...
I can't share more than this until the person who purchased it has given
it to the recipient. For now, all I can share are two tiny peeks, with my 
apologies for the "vague post". Yeah. I don't like those either. Sorry.

Design Phase...

 This project is important to my client, so I'm taking my time to be sure I get it just right.

I aged the three crocheted ornaments with a product I purchased last time I was in Wisconsin. I bought Instant Antique from Primitive Gatherings. It's a spray-on product that starts dark and dries lighter. You can find it HERE. Instant Antique can be used on fibers, fabrics and needlework to give it an old appearance. It's just what I needed so the ornaments would look a little more masculine.

I'll be assembling all the parts and pieces today, and plan to have it completed by the end of the day. You know I'll be back with pictures, right?
