Swatching Fall Part 2

The line up so far! Base painted in 3 different shades of orange. Started layering in color with yellow and brown today.

This pair reads really well from the street. I think there will be 3 with a little dark shading.

The garlands I bought at Goodwill and 4 spools of plastic burlap type ribbon. $2.99 for the bag. Testing various textures and colors.

The light brown roll might not be long enough so I tried the dark brown. In a pinch it will do. This will add some bulk to the garland. The velvet oak leaves were part of a headdress and I do like that color palette. Indoor stair bannister so I don't have to worry about the weather.

So much to do! Once all the paint is set we start carving.
