The Productive Day That Started at 4am

I jumped out of bed this morning at dark o’ thirty, quickly started a pot of coffee, and got to work. I was eager to finish this primitive folk art Angel. At dusk last night, she was nearly complete. She just needed limbs. I’d begged my husband to go out into the yard to find me some twigs for her arms and legs. We promptly baked ’em to kill any critters inside. Then I ran out of steam and went to bed early.. intent on finishing her when I woke.

I started this item, believing it would be a sure sale. But then I pondered how to package it for shipping. There’s a myriad of issues; the wings are wider than any boxes I have, the halo needs protecting, and the Sweet Annie may get crushed. I need to buy some packaging. I think she came out beautiful, though!
