Computer still in the "shop" so bare with me while we talk about other things that I've had on my mind to add to CdlV. Today, the garden. I'm having a large themed party this summer, similar to my tent party 2-years ago - but on a much grander scale. I have great plans to make this truly unforgettable, and part of those plans include a "tree". By tree, I mean, dried branches dripping with crystals, candles, flowers, and dyed spanish moss. Yes - it's a big plan! So, for a while, I've been collecting branches and twigs to make this "tree", but have realized that they're really an eye sore, and it's much to early to have them. So ... what can I do with a pile of twigs and branches?
I've always loved the look of yard structures and furniture made from twigs. There is so much to the craftsmanship: true art. So I've been thinking - how hard could it possibly be? A brad nailer (which I already have) and a stack of twigs (check!) and voila, right?
Well, as soon as the computer comes back - I'll let you all see what I come up with! Keep your fingers cross that it's as beautiful as I've imagined.
Artie, I have absolutely no doubt that it will be gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteSomewhere, I remember seeing a garden pergola made entirely out of branches and twigs. It was so original. I'm loving that hanging light you featured. I could see many of those hanging in your garden too.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what you are going to do Artie!
Looking forward to seeing what you do!
