Artist #12 - Karen Davis
My name is Karen Davis. I have been a part of Crafts Unlimited since 2008 and am honored to be included with such a talented group of artists and crafts persons. My crafts are mostly re-purposed vintage pieces that are no longer uesful for their original purpose, such as:
- Vintage plates that are stacked and made into mirrors
- Leaded glass Christmas ornaments using original vintage post cards and other vintage paper
- Button bracelets (using mostly vintage buttons)
- Angels made from old handkerchiefs and vintage jewelry
- Plant markers made from vintage silver plated knives, and new this year -
- Wind chimes from old silver plates
I have always loved working with my hands, and especially enjoy repurposing vintage things. There is something very satisfying in preserving old things so they may still be enjoyed.
I live in Troutdale with my husband, a spoiled rotten cat, and a beautiful view of Mt. Hood. I am blessed to be the mother of 5 incredible daughters, 10 equally incredible grandchildren, and 2 stupendous great-grandchildren!
