No. 3 Six double slices of wood hanging on a branch “Winter Tale” Christmass wall decoration
€ 120,00Winter/ Christmass wall decoration containing 6 large and medium slices of wood suspended on a real branch. The wood slices are decorated on both sides using the decoupage technique using premium rice paper. The set includes a rustic wooden branch.
Charming, mystical illustrations on rice paper glued on wood slices with a diameter of 8-10 cm – made in the decoupage technique. I am not the author of these illustrations. However, I am the originator and creator of the entire decoration.
Surprise ! On the reverse side I also added an interesting text with positive words in Dutch that will make the Christmass season feel special to your children. Since I created this decoration for children and dreamy adults, I wanted to add words on the back that would have a positive impact at the atmosphere at home.
The edges are decorated with gold leafs.
The atmosphere of this collection of decorations is vintage-rustic (deliberately aged).
Created with children in mind, the installation will be an original decoration for a child. But it may also be interesting for an adult dreamer who still likes the mystical world of fairy tales…
PLEASE NOTE: Although I try to include photos in varying light sources, due to variations in computer screen resolutions, the colors as you view them at home may vary slightly from the product images I took.
WHY IS IT WORTH INVESTING IN ART AND CRAFTS?
When it comes to raising children, it’s a good idea to choose arts and crafts created by authentic artists and craftsmen to decorate your home. Mass-produced objects and cheap imitations from chain stores teach children to consume quickly and cheaply, children lose their innate imagination and reliance on their manual skills in creating useful objects or creatively solving problems in their adult life. Children observe and copy. They absorb everything. Show them a handmade piece of art or decoration and they will want to know how it was made and eventually they will try to create something themselves and have fun doing it.
Thanks to contact with art and craft, children, instead of passively looking at monitors, will have broadened interests, will appreciate human work, will practice concentration and focus, and will also increase their self-esteem by doing something beautiful on their own. Because when children see in various works of artists at home or outside, naturally curious children will want to copy a painting or try to make something with their own hands, whether it be painting a dog, drawing a garden, gluing a dream house from scraps of paper, there are many possibilities for creativity in visual arts, and the only limitation is human imagination.
