Crafts CouncilDirectoryElla Jenkins DesignsThe Forbidden Forest ChairAboutA 1920's armchair has been transformed & refurbished. Silver birch trees with their stunning ghost like bark. A silvery silk full moon shines down on the scene. Mr Hare gazes up at the moon. Winter's coming. Silk leaves in various shades of Autumn float down and mingle with snowflakes. A tiny mouse shivers and watches the leaves fall. A bear blunders out of the trees and blows a snowflake off his nose. Opposite the bear, a spider weaves his magical silvery web. Definitely a one off design.Ella Jenkins DesignsStamford, EnglandForbidden Forest Chair - finished front, Photo: Holly Cook PhotographyStunning applique and embroidery textile designForbidden Forest Chair 5 Patchwork Back, Photo: Holly Cook PhotographyDetail of the patchwork fabric created to add interest to the side and back of chairForbidden Forest Chair - detail, Photo: Holly Cook PhotographyWork in progress on the designForbidden Forest Chair - side, Photo: Holly Cook PhotographySide view of chairForbidden Forest Chair stripped, Photo: Holly Cook Photography1920's chair stripped down to frame and woodwork cleaned upThe Forbidden Forest ChairAboutA 1920's armchair has been transformed & refurbished.
