Do you love an ornament at Christmas-time? To give or to collect? The added beauty of these ornaments is that they're also wind-chimes!
I have made and gifted Christmas decorations for many years now, it's one of my favourite things to do! Whether these ornaments add to your collection or are gifted to someone elses, I hope that the peace, joy and delight I experience while painting are your experience in enjoying your ornament.
Can I share with you my gum leaf ornaments? My hope is that, while you can enjoy them at Christmas, they also lend themselves to enjoyment throughout the year too. Close to where I live is a walking track along a creek lined with many varieties of gum trees. I am constantly captivated by the different colours, shapes, and textures that can be seen in a gum tree. As I came to painting this year's ornaments,I loved the idea of including gum leaves in the design.
Each ornament was painted in one of four base colours - purpley/blue, salmon, raspberry red and gum green. I then handpainted each ornament with beautiful metallic paints in varying colours. The colours blend and flow into each other, the movement in the paint at times reflecting the imperfections seen in gum leaves in nature.
The artist's initials are signed on each ornament in coordinating gold.
Some specifics:
Material - glass
Paint - metallic acrylics
Hanging thread - gold thread, ties with knots in two positions. One at a level to hang on a tree, one at a level to hang as a wind chime. If you only want to hang on a tree, feel free to cut the thread approx 1cm above the lower knot.
Size- Diameter 7cm, Height 7cm
Hanging length approx 45-50cm total length.
Each ornament is packaged individually. Wrapped in bubble wrap, to protect against breakages, and boxed in a white cardboard box. Boxes a tied with a ribbon made from recycled sari silk.
If you're purchasing for a gift, you're welcome to select a handpainted gift tag near the 'add to cart' button to add to your handmade gift.
Made and ready to post.
