Garden Angels from Shutters

We had some louvered doors in the shop, and a friend came in one day and saw them.
She said, "Barb, you should make garden angels out of those."
So we did!

We used anything we could find for accessories. I had just bought some woodwork at an auction just because I liked it. It made perfect wings! The head is an old enamel lid, and the arms are wood slats off of.... something.

This ones wings are the ends from a table top. The table was a bit beyond repair, so we took it apart and salvaged what we could.

My closeup pic didn't come out, but this ones face is a wooden plate with a flowers etched into it.

And this one again has the table top wings, and spindles for arms. She is TALL. The others we cut in half, but this one we left as the whole shutter. She is in the shop for sale, but hasn't sold yet. She may come home and get a trim. Shhh....don't tell her.

And what did we do with the end that was cut off?
Added burlap ribbon and a burlap look flower!

We have several more shutters to make more, as soon as time allows.

Thanks for the great idea Terri!
