Art nouveau bed is finished. I really like the result. It looks quite old, just what I wanted to achieve with staining pearwood.

Bed – WIP

Bed - WIP

I started making a bed, you can see some carving in progress on the photo above.  And I think I’ll make a chair for the dresser I made earlier, both would look great together.  But it will be after the bed and couple of bedside tables. I’m using pearwood again, it’s very light in color as you can see, so it’ll need some staining too.

And my new addition – this Proxxon sander, they have a bigger model but I decided on this smaller one. Suits my needs perfectly.

I’d make some jigs for it, but don’t have time for it at all, to be honest. Well, back to work! Have a nice day!

Finished this wonderful dresser yesterday. The original design is by some of the German architectors circa 1900. I’m planning to make a bed, couple of bedside tables and a chair.

Chairs

Author: Виктория, February 24, 2014 в Uncategorized

I always wanted to try different art nouveau styles, if I may say so.  This time – Vienna Secession, Koloman Moser. At first, I spotted his beautiful wardrobe, but then I saw these chairs and immediately started making drawings.

I really liked this dove marquetry piece – its size in 1/12 is 13 mm on 13 mm. Part of the wings are made with mother of pearl, two types actually.

I finished upholstering the second chair, this time I used silk taffeta.

I had to make the back of the seat twice, the veneer split, but the result is great.

Holidays.

Author: Виктория, January 10, 2014 в Miniature Needlepoint

We had  very long holidays as usual. I wish I’ve done more, but what can you do. I made two wonderful fringes on bobbin lace, painted them, then realised I needed one more!

At the moment I’m working on a second chair, the seat upholstery is done, now it’s back of the chair I’m working on.

 

WIP - another chair

40 nails used, I think another 40 will go too.

Chess figures. Knights.

Author: Виктория, December 19, 2013 в WIP, WIP, WIP, WIP, WIP

Couple days ago, something terrible happened, my container with chess figures fell down from table, it was open. So couple of figures were lost for good. I had to make some of them again.

Three knights for now, don’t need more for the roombox.
