Halloween Treasures from Skelly Swap



What a delight to find this cute little guy grinning underneath the tissue paper in a package I received from the talented David Everett of Chicken Lips Folk Art. We both participated in the sculpted Skelly Swap hosted by Dani Nelson of Ambitions Design. This is the second swap I've been in and I'm acquiring fun little Halloween treasures from creative fellow artists.

David's whimsical style in his paper mache sculptures makes you smile. And I love the curly wire hanger he created at the top of the skelly's hat. Thank you David! Your little guy is smiling down at me from above my desk!


Here's a photo (courtesy of David) of the skelly ornament I sent him. His little body is cotton batting and he holds the tiniest of umbrellas.

If you'd like to see more of David's fun creations, head on over to his blog to see photos of his work.

Have you been in a swap lately? I'd love to hear about it!

OH Iva! I'm glad I found your here! I bought a couple of your ACEO's on ebay last year. I just love your work! You are a special person!
