Some things just linger in your mind.
I kept coming cross this empty box & thinking of a forest I drew... Eventually the idea came to me.
This is what I made as a surprise for the husband fish—
Different weights of paper, cut into foliage.
Paper fire, dancing on paper logs.
Surprise! Here we are, curled up by a fire, among the overlapping trees. Living the life.
Usually, we don't pay much attention to V-day (except for the time he surprised me with a romantic fort!) but in this case it coincided with the husband fish coming back from a long trip, so I wanted to cheer him up.
I should probably give them little scarves... It looks chilly in there!
okay that is amazingly adorable! I envy your talent! He must've been ecstatic to receive this!
ReplyDeleteOh, he was so excited! :)

I LOVE it! You are super-talented lady!
ReplyDeleteYou are so damn talented! It's absolutely amazing.
ReplyDeleteAh, thank you...! You warm my heart. :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to live in that little paper woods!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love your trees! How do you have the patience to cut these tiny details? I admire you, really. And that white fairy-tale surroundings
ReplyDeleteIt was so time consuming, and you can't really rush it!
DeleteThis is the cutest! What a sweet Valentine. :)
ReplyDeleteThis could not be any cuter! I wish I had the patience for paper cutting. It is so beautiful but it looks very time consuming and I would be devastated if I got a piece half way through and tore it. Great project - awesome job!

This is so adorable! I've always loved these kind of projects but, until I saw this post just now, I forgot all about this!
ReplyDeleteToo cute.

This is one of the most beautiful little things I've seen for a long time! What beautiful drawings you make. I would love to make one of these boxes myself but it would not be half as good. Might try anyway...
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Christel! You can have lots of fun with a little project like this... Just let the power of the awesome box flow through you! ;)
