Here's an up close of the paint treatment I'm doing...
I just love the crackle effect. I'm using a different brand crackle medium, and I don't think I like it as much as I like the Folk Art brand, but it's what I have... so I'm using it....
This lady is probably one of my favorites...
Her nose was already broke... so I painted around it, and left it to look like it had broke off years ago. I also added some ink to this to dirty it up a bit.
So..... as the saying goes......
I'm still working on these... I tried painting one green and it just didn't look right, so they're either going to be white or cream-sand colored. And a few got the stone treatment. Waiting for the paint to dry in between coats has been the hardest part.
So..... as the saying goes......
Until Next Time....

I like it very much how the heads look, Katie. I also love the crackle effect. You have so great ideas :-)
I love these- especially the one with the broken nose! What if you put the head on some type of pedestal base like this:

or even just a square base of wood? Like this:

but not so huge- just a small square that would still fit on top of your column?
You have such great ideas Katie!
