I decided to alter an old fashion peculator coffee pot for my project that was in our camping box. 

This is what I started with.

I had my husband help me remove the handle from the pot and I saved the inside parts for another project.

For my colour I was inspired by this variegated brightly colour wool that I have in my stash. 

I found this child's hat at a thrift store, painted it with Gesso, then added different colours of waxes and added a metal flower, and metal trim that I also coloured with waxes.

For my coffee pot I added coke bottle eyes, buttons for the eye balls which I painted,  and part of a spoon for each of the ears. 

I added some old funky glasses which I added some small flowers to. 

This was a fun project for me and a little bit crazy. 

Hope you will join us this month at Bleeding Arts. Create your anything goes/mixed media project and enter it here. 

Have a creative week.
