Early Halloween? New Wizard-y Gryphon Table!
Filed under Art Projects, Back in Stock, Giveaways, Halloween, Miniatures, Newsletters, Sale, Teri Calia
Ooo! What a great little 1:12 scale table for a wizard’s office. The finished size is just 5-7/8″ wide x 3-1/8″ deep 2-1/4″ tall. (If that little photo below of me holding one wasn’t there, I bet you’d think Teri’s artwork at right was much larger!) Note the double trestle base, and the extra wings to give the gryphons more dimension.
As Summer nears I always start thinking about Halloween because I love making creepy, spooky, magical and/or fantastical art. So, a couple of months ago, I started designing a Dragon Table that sort of morphed into the Gryphon Table you see here. The table is really easy to glue together and would be fabulous in a Medieval dungeon as well as in a modern library.
I painted my table black and dry brushed white over the top to add a bit of depth and interest. I also used four mushroom plugs as feet to give the table more height. The table comes with a thin chipboard “veneer” that glues onto the top that I chose to cover with a great distressed paper from the Tim Holtz Materialize 8×8 Paper Stash pad.

Wow! I think Teri put every 1:12 scale bottle we carry on top of that wee table! I’ve picked out a few things from Teri’s A Wizard’s Potion Making Table Supply List to included in today’s Giveaway:
– Well, of course, I have to start with the Gryphon Table!
– Spell Book Box Extras Collage Sheet (used for labels… especially on those boxes of supplies on and under the table)
– Black Gesso – 1 Ounce Bottle –
– Wooden 3-Step Shelves (I wouldn’t have recognized it under all the bottles and the Black Gesso)
– Tiny Scalloped Fleur Dresden Borders (Teri used just a tiny strip to glue to the front of the shelves before painting them… adds some texture and vintage detail)
– 1/4 Inch Wooden Mushroom Plugs (feet under the table)
– Mini Green Shaving Tonic Bottle (over to the right of the skull… the tallest bottle on the top shelf — with a new label added)
– Krylon Gold Leafing Pen (perfect for adding a little “foiling” to the tops of all those bottles)
– Cast Metal Skull – White (looks great with the bit of paint Teri added)
– Mini Black Cauldron (kinda front & center on top of the table)
