Hi everyone.

I just found this forum and am really inspired by all your imagination.

I live on west coast Canada, am an artist by trade but

an avid back alley junk collector by nature.

It has been freezing lately, so I've collected things around the garden and made a couple of Horseys to guard the front door.They are made of birch trunks daylily leaves, rusty bolts and avocado pits for jewllery.

Cheers, Vallitoo.

Welcome to the most fun forum on the entire internet! Your horses are really cute. I look forward to seeing more of your projects as the weather warms up this year. Here is one of my projects from this summer:

I had fun with this crib cause it was in pieces when I got it. I've posted these painted pots before but I really liked how they turned out:

I get my pots at thrift stores, junk stores, Habitat for Humanity, garage sales and plant swaps. Anything but retail. haha

Welcome to the forum! Your horses are darling. The daylilly leaves are just great. It will be fun having a bonofide artist "in house" here on the forum. Look forward to seeing your posts in the future.

Welcome to the forum vallitoo. Your little horses are so cute. I think they would look so cute nestled in among some plants in a pot.Each has its own personality. Very creative and imaginative. You will love this forum and the people on it. Looking forward to more of your creations.
