January Subscription Box – Secret Aft Loft / Powertex

“We wish you bluebirds in the spring to give your heart a song to sing”

Contents of the January box

Please note *** You may not get an exact replica of this box, but similar items will be included ***

This is what I made with some of the contents of my ‘bluebird’ January box.

Here I used the wooden bird, the mdf branch and bird houses(I was lucky and got two of these), the mesh, paper flowers and some of the fancy yarn. The houses are coloured with blueberry pie acrylic paint and the bird and mesh have been coloured with the blue curacao secret art loft pigment. The golden olive pigment has been used on the branch and the paper flowers.

Inspiration for this piece came about because I knew I wanted to make something which was 3d, so I started by making the bird fatter and then it just evolved from there.

And this is my second make with more of the contents using one of the mdf birds, the wallpaper, some lace and embellishments.

Tags are my first love and that’s where the inspiration for this make was born.

For a more detailed insight into how I made these two pieces, please visit the Powertex UK Magazine.

There is still loads left, so you never know, I might be back!

Don’t forget, if you’ve got the box or indeed if you make anything Powertex related, don’t be shy, come and show us what you’ve made on the Facebook page here. We love to see what you’re up to.
