January 19th marked the 202nd birthday for Edgar Allan Poe....best known for his tales of mystery and the macabre.
The eBay group Primitive Folk Art Talk & Tea is having a POE Challenge to celebrate Edgar's Birthday!
Below is the "Happy Birthday Poe" Mixed Media hang tag/ornament that I made for this special occasion.
Just click on the picture to go to the eBay Auction.....
I made this hang tag from a coffee dyed tag, painted it black and distressed it to make it look old. I added the finely detailed portrait print, hand stitching and a touch of whimsy in his party hat and baloon that were made from the pages of an early 1900's book.
To see the other Poe creations that were made for this challenge, simply stop by the PFATT BLOG.
