This vibrant pair of birds comes to life on a vintage, repurposed cabinet door! Who'd have thought that cabinet doors could find new life as artwork?? They're rather perfect for the task, being solid wood, already framed, and are ready to hang using the original hinges, if you like! In this scene, two European Bee-eaters are having an animated discussion…perhaps someone brought home the wrong kind of bug for dinner, or there's a dispute about whose turn it is to sit on the branch? You can decide what you think the story is here! With a mottled soft green background, the birds jump into the foreground with their jewel-like coloring--almost literally, as the wings and tails extend right out of the picture and up onto the weathered black frame. Vivid tones of red, gold, and turquoise give the feathered pair presence and texture, and turn this old door into a completely one of a kind piece of art. Dimensions are 16.5" x 21.5". Piece is signed and numbered for authenticity.

For Keepsake Box, Memory Box, Treasure BoxIf you want a very special gift for a child or grandchild this is the place and the person who can do that for you. She is talented, good natured, imaginative, and devoted to doing a wonderful job on your project. I cannot speak highly enough about Lara and her work. I have ordered three treasure chests so far and hope the grandchildren just keep coming so I can order more. Another idea would be to make one for yourself to store all the wonderful souvenirs, tickets, menus etc. from a special trip. I know she will make the best souvenir you can buy with pictures of the holiday location so inside is all the stuff collected there and outside fabulous original pictures of that place. I think I will do that for myself.

For Keepsake Box, Memory Box, Treasure BoxLara was terrific to work with. In record time she created two large treasure chests for my granddaughters which they have already fallen in love with. They are two and four and wanted a place for their treasures. The decoration was chosen by my daughter-in-law and Lara did a bang up job putting all the ideas into the design. I have already ordered a third box for another granddaughter who is three. This is such a lovely idea. It is something they will keep forever with their childhood treasures.
