NEW The Beekeeper’s Workshop artwork & 25% off SALE!
Filed under Collage Sheets, Connie Littell, Market Stall, New Furniture, Shadowbox/Room Box
What a bright and happy scene! Connie Littell has been hard at work on The Beekeeper’s Workshop project for many weeks and it’s such a delight. Note: the structure is a 7×9 Corner Room Box so you can get a sense of the sizes.
Here’s a bit of the text from Connie’s blog post to get us started:
I adore bees, they are some of nature’s most indispensable creatures. At one time, my husband and I had the privilege of being beekeepers and got to observe their social interactions up close. We fed them through the winter and they provided us with delicious honey in the summer. I sold our honey products at the local farmer’s market every Friday morning. We carried homemade soap, beeswax candles and assorted containers of sourwood honey from our homestead. Our kitchen was the setting for all the sticky messy bee-related activities. Years of daydreaming about having a separate space just for that purpose was the inspiration for this miniature workshop.
Connie provides lots of tips on putting the scene together and how she made tiny honey jars and bee decor.
Read more on Connie’s blog post. Here’s her supply list (all in today’s sale, too)! Now on to my close-ups of a few of the tables and trims…

Yow! There’s a big bunch of items in that overhead shot! Let’s start with the new collage sheet (preview at right and includes many of those posters in the wide photo above — and the rugs, jar and crate labels, chair upholstery…).
There are 2 designs of faux upholstery for the new chair (blue and gold stripes and the bee motif set Connie used). Plus many styles/sizes of posters for the Mini Frames Set.
That black table is the chipboard Workshop Table (and it’s featured in the next photo, with those sweet bear honey dispensers)!

Those Resin Honey Yellow Gummy Bears plus painted toothpick tips and 6mm Bronze Double Spacer Beads are so cute as honey dispensers!
What else do I spy? Before leaving that top shelf, there’s a teddy bear. Then there are mead bottles (made with Tall Amber Beer Bottles plus collage sheet labels (same new sheet) and white bee stickers on the necks).
Nearby, a bowl of tiny honeycomb slices and a red tray of vintage honey labels (yep, from same new collage sheet).
Finally, at right is a line-up of new and old amber-colored resin bottles & jars in the project.

I LOVE all the decor in the shelves of the new hutch! Those plates on the top shelf use reduced-size images from the Bees Collage Sheet (with clear nail polish to provide the shine)
Skipping down to the bottom shelf, there’s a tray of faux beeswax candles made from the new succulents mold.
Next to the tray are 3 glass jars with new Tiny Bees & Bugs Die-Cuts as labels.
Then back to the middle shelf: 3 of the new Tall Mini Honey Jars, 2 taller glass jars with new washi tape, and 3 books with new bee-themed covers (from the new collage sheet).
Beautiful work, Connie!

Beside one of the 1:12 Brass Picture Frames (shown at right as Connie used it on top of her hutch — with an image from the new Honey & Bees Collage Sheet), I also made a NEW mini collage sheet with big bunch of botanical/bird images sized for that frame!
