Project 52 : 2 DIY Pom Pom Flowers

Little Lady and i had quite the time

making these adorable pom pom flowers.

 i made them for a shelf 

in the kitchen

but after photographing them in my room

i decided we need to make some more.

here's what you need :

step 1 : make your pom pom flowers

there are lots of tutorials on the internet

or you can use a pom pom maker.

i really want to purchase one.

i was going to photograph a tutorial 

on how to make the pom poms with just your hands

but i'm lazy, heee.

step 2 : slide wood sticks in the pom pom

BAM, you're done.

pretty simple

pretty quick.

the perfect craft for doing with Little Ladies.

over on the other side of the bedroom
stand my dresser.
Handsome Man has the long one with the mirror
and i have the tall one.

sigh.
i love my thrifted furniture.

please note the owl cross stitch hung above my dresser.
my dearest sister made that for me.
i love him so.
his name is Petrey
and he greets me happily every morning
as i pick out my socks from the top drawer.

owl clock

i have had this image saved on my computer

for quite some time

and when i look at it

i think of all things whimsy

sadly i cannot supply the source

so if anyone knows it, link it in the comments section.

i want one in my kitchen

wouldn't Handsome Man just loooove that, heeee.

i found a similiar clock being sold on ebay

should i bid?

dare i win?

and perhaps paint it similarly?

and hang it upon my wall?
