First time using Nara Paper

I purchased Nara paper on Poshmark.ca last week and they arrived yesterday.  https://posh.mk/1tJaa0cPj3b I was excited to try them as I have only used Yupo to date.  Here is a 5 minute experiment and I am quite satisfied with the outcome so far.

WIP, some new Alcohol inks

I will adding them as I finish mounting it on card stock and taking photos  Example of it enlarged and framed This batch was an attempt to reuse some of my rejected pieces of yupo. I completely ran out of new Yupo so I am making do with what I have. I used  mostly white and black which give the pieces an enamel look as these inks seem thicker. The white softens the color underneath and the black hides it. There are sections that have been scraped away with an old credit card, revealing what was there originally.  These were the only 2 that where completed. The rest need to be revaluated.

Vintage Round Footed Mirror Vanity Tray

This is one of the anchors that I took off to clean along with the foot so as not to harm the mirror. It turned out to be more work then anticipated so the others were cleaned carefully without removing them. This is a vintage mid-century round footed vanity tray with beveled mirror. It is crafted with exquisite details for a timeless appeal. The tray is made in Portugal,  It is perfect for displaying your fine perfumes or jewelry. In very good condition for age as seen in photos. Bottles and brush set are sold separately.
