Custom Silhouette Hand Cut from Crockery!


First attempt -a silhouette of my little girl!

I'm planning to start offering custom hand-cut silhouette portraits on my etsy shop at icklebird.etsy.com soon!!
I love the way Izzie's portrait fit right into this chinaware's print to give her a collar and floral design across her face!!

Hand Cut Crockery -My Newfound Obsession!

What a revelation! It suddenly dawned on me that I might be able to cut crockery like I cut glass!! I had a small collection of pretty patterned plates tucked away for the day I returned to an earlier hobby of making mosaics and quickly started to see images in the plates just calling out to be revealed!
These are the first that I made!!
