BURLAP LUXE DESIGNS
My latest theatre of the arts, I design and create from rustic salvage wood.Along with my bending of wire art and paper doll and cartapesta mice.   Salvage Wood
Chosen and cut to dimensions, using the best pieces showing signs of weathered and decaying inspiration.Every piece gets wood glued and screwed, adding all therightness to a French theatre of song anddance.   Theatre Taking Shape  Moldings, picture frames, chair rungs and drawer pulls for finialsare often found in pieces of furniture I salvage from their past. History in such pieces inspire my art in building forgotten treasured play.
This Theatre hangs on a wall.22" in height x 17" in width x 6" in depth.  Ephemera Vintage paper ephemera I collect, papering a backdrop wall.Yet, I nudge along its brittle aged look with tearing andpiecing it together so this wall takes on a lookof centuries old.   Paint And Tattered Curtians
A paint treatment I give it to preserve each piece rustically.I have still yet to lay the planked stage flooring, addinga bit more moldings and its vintage music boxunder the stage base.Hopeful in completion soon, old wood salvage finds can not berushed.
