i love japanese straight pins

artsy fartsy projects in the works

first, i found this paper mache form in one of my MANY boxes of "stuff" and decided to decoupage origami paper and pieces of a japanese newspaper.  i may use this to hang necklaces from.  and alongside is the felt rose headband i made and now i'm working on another one in grey for Amykins!

and below is another decoupage project.  I found this box that looks like a book that opens to store stuff in.  So i've decided to decoupage black and white pictures of Don and quotes and japanese symbols for mourning.  i will take this to Mom with some of Don's ashes.  i know she will like this.  i will be very proud to give it to her.
