Masquerade

WELCOME TO OUR MASQUERADE BALL




We recently added to our Mask Library. 
 Two New Orleans Masks.
______________
  The rich gold fabric really makes this one pop.  A black fillet was put at the base of the wall to create more dimension and is always a really nice effect.

The following two Ceramic Masks
were brought in by a customer
that had seen the completed Venetian Masks ( photo lower on this page) before they were picked up.

He liked them so much he bought
a couple on the internet to frame.
Ceramic Masks



THIS IS WHAT STARTED IT ALL
Masks from Italy
____________
Framed within a fun Bella Moulding used as a liner, with a gold shadow box frame.
The walls are green,with a gold fillet at the bottom.  While the back ground mat is a rich purple. 
We got the mask fever on this one.
 Having had so much fun designing and working on it.
Venetian Half Mask and Carnival Mask
 From Italy






I liked it so much I decided to make a mask to frame.
This time using a Bella Frame in the bottom, and a fun design cut in the mat
inlaid with ribbon, tasseled with little prisms.
Just to add more fun to the project.
