This is the first challenge that I've ever done; so, here goes nothin'!
I was a little excited about this challenge because I have oodles and oodles of pop tabs and Popsicle sticks. I couldn't think of anything to make at first, but I just started fiddling with things and this is what occurred:

A fun little art piece to put up in my house or outside (I haven't decided)!


It's made of Popsicle sticks, pop tabs, pipe cleaners, a fun ad I found in an old magazine, buttons, and lovely glue. The clothespin is detachable because I just like detachable things, haha.
I always like to have fun art hanging in my room, and I thought this captured my personality well.





It reminds me of those Spring days when you go outside to hang out with yourself on the hammock while having a lovely cig and perhaps a book at hand. It's pretty much represents my perfect Spring day.

ps.
I apologize for my picture taking skills; I'm trying to get better, haha.

very cute, I'm glad it makes you happy!! That's what crafting is all about, creating smiles... that and having some mindless yet productive "me" time. Wink

We should all fear evil men, but what we should fear most, is the indifference of good men. On a lighter note..have you smiled today? If you have not, Just DO IT! If you have..do it again!
