Merry Creatures! November 14th 2014

The first batch of "Merry Creatures" one of a kind papier mache Christmas ornaments that I've made since 2007 are now at Jenny Jib.  

Each ornament is initialed and has a "Merry Creatures" label with its name - the labels are made out of recycled cereal boxes etc that were fed through an inkjet printer.  The Merry Creatures are made out of recycled Chronicle Heralds, masking tape, cornstarch paste and sometimes wire for the armatures.   Their gold coloured elastic cords are sculpted into them.  They're painted with professional quality acrylic paints and varnished with an acrylic varnish.  The early ornaments weren't documented, but from now on I'll be naming and photographing each Merry Creature, with posts indexed on this Merry Creatures page.
