see, I had an owie ... actually its a burn that is now a giant blister on my finger ... I was trying not to pop the blister, but it popped and now i can just bandage it up and type away to my hearts content!
it's a whole lot of paper rosettes, it's actually Stamping Up patterned paper, because i wanted something with weight and that would not crush as easy as a vintage book page ... all glue gunned to a styro tree shape. The base is actually a pin holder from Webster's Pages ... I just love packaging that you can use as part of a project!!!
and I just loved sticking the left over's in a vintage jar with a vintage crochet doily ... I think these will both look cute on the mantle ... well okay, i don't have a mantle, but they will look great on the table!!! maybe surrounded by tea lights ... and I have beautiful vintagey white snow owl ornaments ... geez ... I'm starting to dream of christmas and it's not even halloween ...
anyways ... I'm finally able to blog and comment on blogs so I will be around to visit soon!
ps, Honey says "hi" ... well actually it's more of a "woof" ...

Girl don't they sell low temp glue up there? My word, you made a lot of rosettes but I like the look of the tree. It would look good with the garland I sent ya a pic of. I made a cluster of 3 roses and thought ...this is a chore! What can you make for Halloween? I need ideas.
Little Honey is a sweety!~Ames
So sorry to hear about your owie...I hate burns. But that paper rosette tree is sooooo nice. Great job!

Thats what I call suffering for your art!
Your little tree is just adorable!
I'll be pinning that one for sure!
Feel better hun!

Poor finger - poor Jo! Your little rosettes are so sweet, and the tree is going to be copied a lot!

Hi Jo!
Thanks so much for stopping by and visiting me. Oh, your poor finger! That looks like a big hurt. I just love the paper rosettes. And yes, your idea for tea lights is a must! That will be too pretty. The tree is too cute. My Gracie says "mew" to Honey!
Warmly,
Sharon
So many lovely rosettes and such a beautiful tree! So sorry your finger suffered from this project. Be careful with that glue.
Glad to see your posting again - hope that the finger heals up to 100% real soon. The project looks amazing, it's so lovely!
Now stay away from glue guns for awhile silly girl ;)
I'm so glad your owie is getting better.
Your rosettes are beautiful, and I love your tree. That would be beautiful anywhere!
Oh Jo! How very pretty!
That's why you should always have a glass of ice water handy when you are using the glue gun! I found this out when I was in the flower industry. Glad your owwwie is better! Love your TREE!!
Hi Jo,
I sure hope you are starting to feel better! I know how hard that can be....Once I was in a cast for 4 months!
I still typed--I don't know how I did it!
I hope you're resting and taking it easy...sending (((hugs))) your way,
Cindy
