Joined Basket #014 King Caspar

This is the first of three wise men. The design for the basket was kick-started by a silhouette made by Pamela Perry and then my design was commented by Anna and much revised following her instructions.  The design is best suited for a cutting machine. However, you may ease hand cutting by using a puncher for the details – they need not be precisely the circles and Maltese crosses I indicated. After joining and adding the handles you may consider to glue stick the outer layers of the crown to the more firm inner layers near the central axis.

Use your favourite colours.

  1. Den er helt fantastisk!
    Det er sjovt, nogle gange er det som om du tænker på at lave de samme ting som jeg tænker på. Jeg har længe haft nogle hellige tre konger i hovedet, dog i mere naivistisk stil.

    • Tak Margit! Det er jo ofte sådan, at projekter ligger i luften og beder om at blive løst. Når det drejer sig om art/craft projekter er det jo kun herligt at flere byder ind. Vi påvirker vel også hinanden. Da jeg så dine hekse og engle fik jeg enorm lyst til at lave nogle figurer. Og for mig var ærværdige skæg, opulente kongekroner og rige gaver et oplagt valg.
