Things for the fair! Coisas para a feira!!!

Photos are not very good, not much natural light in the room, but I think they are goood enough to get an idea.... These are some of my Portuguese painted furniture, everything was made by myself with yhe exception of the  cupboard, I have this piece and decided to paint it and also to put some details... 
Now, I must finish theroom- boxes and probably make more chairs, bedcover, rugs and so on!

Everything is finished !!!

Está tudo pronto!!!

One set is almost finished....

I need to finish the bedcover, arrange a little nice cushion, ( I don´t kow  if I am going to use this fabric), but you can get an idea of the all thing.

Furniture sets finished!!!!!!!!!! As mobílias Alentejanas estão prontas!!

 

Photos are not very good, it was in the end of the day, I was tired of painting dozen of tiny flowers and leaves....Now, I need to glue the beds and to make the roomboxes, yes, each set will be in a kind of roombox, with lots of details.

Work in progress! week-end work!

Work in progress!

Now, making the seats to the chairs and  painting the decoration....

Christmas Collection - Coleção Natal

I have just posted all my fabrics of the Christmas collection, 23 different patterns , all beautiful and tiny, some with tiny gold accents!!!! I believe you can´t find so many beautiful Christmas fabrics in 12th scale, in just one place, as in my blog Forever Fabrics
Take a look, just clic in the box Christmas Collection in the top of the blog!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

a new blog!!!! Forever Fabrics

Forever Fabrics is my new blog just for my fabrics. It is already on-line, but since I have more then 250 fabrics in my stock, I must still complete the blues, reds and greens...
However, you can see the Christmas  and Children collections, the creams and yellows, the browns ...and the blacks and greys.
Now, it is very easy to  pick up what you want, each fabric has a number, you just write down the numbers of the fabrics you want and send an email to me! I will tell you the price, including the P&P to your country.
Another good thing, the on-line Forever Fabrics catalogue will be always up-to-date!!!! (when a fabric is sold out I will remove the picture immediatly).

Please let me know your feedback about the new blog and if you find it easy to use! Your opinion is very important to me!

Work in progress!

All pieces are almost ready to paint, but first they will be cover with a thin layer of acrylic gesso, sanded, cover again, sanded, to obtain a smooth finish, only after this operation painting will be done. In the photos some of the pieces were already treated in this way, as you can see by the "white"  colour. Times seems short to do everything before Christmas, so , let´s work!!

new fabrics!
