elizabeth_mnI was chatting about this the other day but of course it's not a proper post without pictures!
Here are the latest couple ornaments made around here:
Can I even tell you how much I love this? I used the idea/directions here. I didn't have glitter Mod Podge so I just stirred some gold glitter glue in.
I think she is right when she says you really need to use the cling wrap. I don't tend to keep plastic wrap in the house, so I skipped it, and I got the webby bits all over my twine ball:
Yuck. So this happened:
But hey it worked and I love it. I kind of want to make a few more.
The Girl and I also worked together on this one.
Ours is of course messier and lumpier, but I still love it. Again, made just with stuff we already had in the house. The Girl loved threading all the beads onto the wire, even the tiny ones. I love to see her focus on crafty stuff like this.
Not sure what is next, but I do want to keep up holiday stuff. In January I have a ballgown to make but until then I am keeping historic sewing on hold.
