New Arrivals For Desdemona's...

 I'd like to introduce you to, two new arrivals for Desdemona's Home For Orphaned & Abandoned Dragons and Other Magical Creatures.

A new baby Monster and a Baby Dragon, made by the very talented Alicia Singleton, otherwise known as AllieBean Dolls.

I contacted Alicia and asked her if she would be making any little Monsters or Dragons. Alicia emailed me back and said that she would be and as soon as they were made, she would email me pictures.  A couple of weeks later, Alicia emailed me with a picture of these cute little ones and of course they had to come and live with Desdemona. Who could resist their cute little faces.

Alicia has an Etsy Shop, Web page and Ebay. Although they are all empty at the moment due to the Festive season. But keep your eyes peeled as Alicia makes some wonderful little Dolls and Dolls Toys.

These little ones, will join the other little Monster already in residence, which you can see in the previous post, sitting on the mat, playing with a Teddy Bear.

 The first two pictures show the Kitchen, in Desdemona's, as it was when I opened the packing. As you can see the Floor needed a total revamp. There were also Blu-tac marks on the paper, even though it was a vinyl paper. Decided to strip the Kitchen completely out and start again. 

I started with the floor, giving it a wash of Colour and allowing that to dry. 

In the alcove, where the sink was I decided to take out the shelving and the false Window.

I stripped all the card and paper from this wall, but as you can see, the wall was very patchy. So I tore up lots of tissue paper and glued it over the wall to texture it, so it blended in with the Fireplace wall. I managed on the other walls to get the Vinyl wallpaper off intact, which left the lining paper on the walls. I then painted over the paper with an Oatmeal colour. Then I went back to the Floor and started to build up the colour. Finally, when I was happy with the colour, I dry brushed Black over the top. Then came the fun bit, playing around with pieces I've been collecting for this project. The bottom picture, gives you some idea of how I want it to look.

Desdemona seems quite happy with the renovations so far, but is now on about Dragon Wallpaper, in the Bedroom...
