Spun Cotton ornament – Pinkie!

Description

Pinkie is ready to come to your home! She loves pink and even has a pink purse! She is approx. 3.75 inches tall to the top of her head and approx. 4.25 to the top of her puffy pony tail. Her body is completely hand made from spun cotton. She is ready to hang. Her hair is pink wool that I felted into a pony tail shape, her dress is cotton and trimmed in ric-rack and ribbon and her purse and slides are made of wool felt. Completely handmade original art with a vintage primitive flare. Each piece is one of a kind!

Spun cotton is an art form that originated in 19th century Germany. Early spun cotton pieces were usually holiday ornaments that were handmade by wrapping cotton batting around a wire frame and then painting it

I use cotton roving and a glue mixture which I spin around a hand made wire armature. Each layer is allowed to dry before spinning another layer on. When that is complete and dry the painting and details are added and the embellishments are added last. Each piece is created right out of my imagination and is truly one of a kind!
