I like to find different ways of framing my original artwork, all the better is it can be done by up cycling something that would otherwise have ended up in landfill.

Full description

Can you believe a little dormouse has found his way into this abandoned alarm clock case and built the perfect nest to sleep in? Handy that the little clock had been left near a hazel tree so that dormouse's favourite snacks are easily reached.

Hand painted and hand cut original diorama art piece. The clock case has been thoroughly cleaned. The glass is the original glass. All parts are hand painted by me using Schmincke Professional Watercolours. The background and nest are painted and made using Arteza CP, acid free, 300gsm watercolour paper, leaves and dormouse on Khadi handmade, acid free, cotton rag paper. I have placed two clock cogs into the nest, sewn into place using cotton thread. All gluing of paper to paper was done using LineCo neutral pH adhesive. The glass has been refitted and is now held in place using mouldable adhesive.

As an up-cycled item it does show wear on the case, the plastic feet have discoloured slightly over time.

Dimensions (approximately):

Height: 110mm (4.5")

Width: 100mm (4")

Depth: 50mm (2")

PLEASE NOTE: not suitable for a child's bedroom.

My post days are Mondays and Thursdays.

I would be happy for a customer to collect this item directly from me if that would be an easy thing to do, either from my base in Halifax or at any event I am running a stall at (mostly in Yorkshire). If this service is arranged I will immediately refund the postal charge to you.
