Out of Season Project

If I could find time between work, making bows, being a wife and mother, and church I have a small project that I would like to finish.

I found this awesome deal at DI a while ago. It is a little out of season, but you cant pass up a good deal like this.



I paid $3 for this. It was such a mess so I restrung the balls. Now I am going to find a cute Christmas sign to put at the bottom, or a cute bow or both and then I am going to add a snowman to the middle since I collect snowmen for my Christmas decorations.

When I bought it a guy at DI asked me what in the heck I was going to do with it. I said that I was going to fix it up, add a few things and then hang it up at Christmas time. He seemed a little shocked. But when I bought it I saw what it CAN be and not what it was. I think that I might have possibly gotten a small part of my moms crafty gene, after all. Or maybe she is finally rubbing off on me. I ususally think "Well thats just junk," now I think wow thats cheap, I could fix it up and make it cute. Oh how life changes and oh how it makes you eat your words. Lesson learned: Watch what you say, it might come back to bite you in the butt! (I say this only because I used to make fun of my mom-sorry mom I LOVE YOU!)
