French Theatrics Of Salvage

 BURLAP LUXE DESIGNS

My latest theatre of the arts, I design and create from

 rustic salvage wood.

Along with my bending of wire art and paper doll and 

cartapesta mice.

 

 Salvage Wood

Chosen and cut to dimensions, using the best pieces showing

signs of weathered and decaying inspiration.

Every piece gets wood glued and screwed, adding all the

rightness to a French theatre of song and

dance.

  

Theatre Taking Shape 

 Moldings, picture frames, chair rungs and drawer pulls for finials

are often found in pieces of furniture I salvage from their past.

History in such pieces inspire my art in building forgotten

 treasured play.

This Theatre hangs on a wall.

22" in height x 17" in width x 6" in depth.

 Ephemera

Vintage paper ephemera I collect, papering a backdrop wall.

Yet, I nudge along its brittle aged look with tearing and

piecing it together so this wall takes on a look

of centuries old.

 

 Paint And Tattered Curtians

A paint treatment I give it to preserve each piece rustically.

I have still yet to lay the planked stage flooring, adding

a bit more moldings and its vintage music box

under the stage base.

Hopeful in completion soon, old wood salvage finds can not be

rushed.
