A couple of years ago, I found this terrific glass washboard at my local antique store. Early on, I decided that I wanted to add these shells and seaglass pairs. The pairs speak to me of the "organic" principles which motivated Frank Lloyd Wright. I love how the manmade and natural reflect each other. Yesterday, I finally attached them. But now I'm stuck on what to do next. I'm working on the idea of making it into a sign that says Gallo Organico for my studio (no matter that I don't have a studio currently - I know I will someday!).
One idea I have is to go with Chipboard letters, "G" and "O" for Gallo Organico. I could paint them someway. I think I might add a wooden scroll cut rooster.
I have also thought about using smaller chipboard letters to spell out Gallo Organico, although I would have to hyphenate Organico.
I could also put the scroll cut rooster up top. I also considered painting directly on the glass, but since it's a washboard, it's rippled. I think it would be too difficult to paint well. Definitely interested in any and all suggestions.
