Wooden half bowl “shelf” with mosaic flowers, and HIGHLAND COW welly-planter. “Rescue, Recycle and Reuse”. Unique, signed

This item is unique … and will make an unusual gift, for someone who is hard to buy for! Birthday, Fathers’ Day, anniversary, Christmas, etc.

My current creating aim is to … RESCUE, RECYCLE and REUSE.

I’ve made two wooden “shelves” by sawing in half a 8”- 10” diameter wooden bowl, bought from a charity shop. The depth of the bowl is 10cm. I’ve made a highland cow design on this half. 

To fix the half-bowl to a wall, there are two mirror plates, which you can screw onto the wall (wall plugs and screws provided). Or - as shown in the photos - I’ve added picture cord so it could be more temporary, and hang on the wall. It could also be a free-standing planter …e.g. on a window sill.

I varnished the two half-bowls before adding this design, and I varnished the cow welly after painting. There are 3 other designs currently available.

All measurements are approximate.

Charity shop wellingtons, child’s size 9. Sole length 19cm and height 18cm. They are not drilled for drainage but will take a 10cm/4cm” plant pot.

Weights: Shelf 308g, welly 279g = 587g in total

The welly was painted initially with two coats of gesso, then two coats of powder blue acrylic paint. The design has been added with acrylic paint.
