I know it isn’t an accurate representation of the San Francisco painted ladies because they are all in the city and in a group. But, that is what I was thinking about when I made this one. And it is sitting on a hill of California poppies.
California scene #2.
This could be in lots of places but I definitely think of California as having amazing wilderness. Also, lots of pine trees.
As I have mentioned before, I will be teaching out in Sonoma, California next October. Check out the Well Crafted Sonoma retreat if you haven’t already. It is going to be awesome! There are just a few spaces left. I have been thinking about California landscapes to put into tea cups. My first idea was a winery since Sonoma is known for being wine country.
I attempted to make the roof look like the red tiles that seem so common in California.
I’ve got more to show. It is fun to work with a theme!
Waves in an old diner mug.
When I saw these tea cups at the thrift store, I had to grab them!
How tiny are those sheep? Very tiny.
As usual, once I get started, it is hard to stop!
And below is a commissioned piece.
I made flower petals for the roof on this one rather than the usual leaves. I like it!
And here are all 4 Fairy Houses. The three available should all be in my Etsy shop soon.
Two fairy houses in thrifted Made in Japan cups.
Teeny tiny house in a field of flowers!
I know, I know, too early for snow!!!
I’m not really in the mood for snow quite yet but wool snow is okay I guess.
I can never have enough fantasy gardens!
Too many flowers? I don’t think so!
2 Woodsy tiny world pincushions.
Some of the cups I brought from Boston, some I have found in thrift stores and yard sales around here. I have also occasionally been going to estate sales and that’s been fun too.
I thought the info on the bottom of this cup was interesting. Bicentennial! I was there!
