CD CASE

See what I mean about CDs.
Try to ignore the state of the living room behind. I generally do. Quite successfully. Harry says he simply does not know how I can possibly function in the midst of chaos.
"It's a gift," I said.
This was a year or so back and my hair is not what it could be. Nor is my face. the living room's the same though.
Look at the cards.
I have used Mameloks, T-bag folding, 3D decoupage, mulberry paper and stuff.
Have to stop now. Faulty Towers is on Sky . It's amazing how it's still so enjoyable even when we know most of the lines off by heart. BYE!

CHRISTMAS TWIRLIES

These three Twirlies were made from CDs (see previous post). One side has Dufex medallions cut from a sheet I got from Snaggles on the CB Forum as part of a prize.
The other has 3D decoupage push-outs from a book.
I have strung them with fishing line so that they will twirl on the tree -our tree is artificial with long wide-apart branches -and wound starry wire loosely around the line.
Finally I decorated them with diamonds, rubies, amythysts, acquamarines etc. etc. (yawn)
As you do.






They haven't posted quite the way I wished- I still can't get the hang of it and the "They" keeps jumping up the left hand side- but either I have a long life ahead of me, and plenty of time to learn, or I haven't and I'll have more serious things to concern me than toys and distractions, so I won't get too hung up on it. (ha! ha!)
You might guess which front goes with which back- it's by way of an initiative test.
Clue: It's the same colour star-wire on the same CD.



Another thing I can do is join them all as ONE BIG TWIRL.
I have a tall, thin window in the top hall that could do with a mobile, come Christmas.























Right. I'll post this now and see how it goes...
