Chortle Chook Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 I'm on the hunt for a small (say max 8cm x 8cm) image of a chook (hen or cockerel) to put on the door of my little wooden hen house to prettify it a bit. I thought of using one of the Omlet plaques but they are too big and not all that colourful. Has anyone got any ideas? I did wonder about gluing a large fridge magnet on it but can't seem to find one of a chicken. Perhaps I'm just not looking in the right places.

jennyp Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 A friend of mine is an artist and has a fab chicken drinks coaster. You can see a small pic of it on her website http://alisonhullyer.blogspot.com/ Might be a bit small for you though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Is your house under cover. You could decoupage one on then lots of layers of varnish. I painted a bowl of eggs, ivy and a dragonfly on my little wooden house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwing Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Try Cafepress. They do loads of chicken car stickers that may be suitable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superkitty Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 You could always make your own! I spent a happy hour or two making this when I first put the girls pen up Untitled by Faith Al-Egaily, on Flickr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chortle Chook Posted January 13, 2012 Author Share Posted January 13, 2012 Oh thanks for all of your suggestions everyone. Looks like I've got a fun weekend ahead . I'm not sure I have the artistic flair to make my own as prettily as superkitty's or lwescott's but I love that one you have suggested Dogmother Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chortle Chook Posted January 13, 2012 Author Share Posted January 13, 2012 Ooo I've done it - made my first ever eBAY purchase. You guys are so good at dragging me into this century but now I've found it is easy peasy and did not bite me . . . there could be more eBAY purchases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
