rooster – Felting and Fiber Studio

I’ve Been Framed

A few years ago I wet and needle felted a Rooster portrait. Of course, its been sitting in my UFO pile. I wrote about it here:

I had a canvas frame I had used for something else and decided to use the rooster pic to cover it.

Then I tried it on several colored walls.

But I wasn’t really thrilled. I felt something was missing. Then I found a frame I thought would be perfect.

So, I removed all the staples, steamed out the bumps and mounted it in the frame.

Here’s a closeup of the distressed frame which just happens to have a turquoise/teal color accent.

It’s found its home in the teal kitchen.

I think it all ties together nicely. I feel like I’m looking out a farmhouse window at the rooster. What do you think?
