How to paint with invisible gutta lines? The Autumn Scarf explained!

Check out Leanne Holt - Lost Gutta tutorial on Silk Artist blog.

I just stumbled across a great blogpost with fantastic tips on silk painting. Step by step it tells you how to create a painting on a scarf without the white gutta lines. 

I used this technique last year, to create hand painted 'Autumn' silk scarf.

It was really time - consuming. You have to use delicate, light silk to ensure that the gutta will work when you apply it on the first layer of paint. If you use to heavy silk, the gutta will not work and there will be 'bleeding'.

Silk scarf Autumn Leaves... and a treasury!

Nowadays, I can feel autumn in the night air... the sun is getting colder and smaller on the sky. I just want to cuddle up at home with my laptop and good green tea :)
In our family garden, there's a beautiful maple tree, that has yellow leaves during the summer, and then it turns golden. It inspired me to create new silk scarf called Autumn Leaves in gold and brown colors.

The silk scarf 'Autumn Leaves' is quite big (90x90 cm) and it's ready to be sent!

I love this color set, so I decided to create a treasury inspired by gold - brown (and just a hint of violet) composition. Enjoy!

Natural wood bracelet Oak and Walnut

I really like this bracelet! It's so rare now to find a jewelery from wood - I think it's a wonderful material. I like the idea of oak and walnut (such strong trees, very meaningful) As the marker says 'the wood beads used on them are made of leftover woods' - very important!

And finally, here's the Warm Autumn Glow treasury - I love all the items, I adore the colors! Happy sales, everybody!
