Welcome to Anybody Home!

Here you will find scattered pictures from my point and shoot camera, random thoughts from my little world, treasured memories of days gone by, hopeful dreams of the days yet to come, and a bunch of ideas - because I've always got ideas!

Recycled Yard Waste


I spent a portion of the afternoon cutting crepe paper.
Then, I simply twisted the crepe paper around magnolia twigs I picked up from my front yard.
It still needs tweaking. And some white and clear marbles in the vase so the twigs can be 'arranged'.

Of all the things I make, this is one of the only things to bring favorable noise from THGGM.
I found the idea in a past issue of Somerset Life. I have made them in pink, red and now white.
Really. You should try this. Because I said so.

That's very pretty Judy! I don't know that I could do it though. How do you actually get the "flowers" on there? Do you cut them out first?

I think I just saw something like this in either the new Good Housekeeping or Real Simple - I know I just saw it somewhere and thought to myself - I love this - too bad I have no time to try to tackle it!
