Look Ma!

So my sister has recently introduced me to the world of craft blogs! Just ask Adam, I am hooked on all the cute things these super creative women do in their homes.  I am constantly going to the craft stores and looking around, convincing Adam I NEED this or that and daydreaming about what I want to make.

Here is my first blog-worthy creation. I started with this for $3.  Yes, what a splurge!

With a little spray paint..

And a helper (from a distance of course)

Next I threaded the jute through the little metal things that hold in the picture. And added this cute flower made out of ribbon!

And another flower/bow at the top.

It looked like this! So cute right?

 And the final touches... A few photos!

If you can't tell I am proud of myself. Basically a can of spray paint and some hot glue, but a masterpiece in my mind! I suppose beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder/maker.
