Tin Flower update.......

I had a request to show these tin collage flowers before they were painted, which got me thinking that even though I didn't like the shiny look, they do have that industrial thing going on..... so I left these as is, and........

.....then I made a wire wall garland to hang them on.

I painted these below a fleshy pink and put them on wire stakes.....

.......but I've run out of time to get to the other ones (at the top of the first picture) done. These were really fun to do though--give it a try if you have stacks of those jello molds and tart tins sitting around!

BTW.....to all you awesome cyber-sisters: THANK YOU so much for all your encouragement and kind comments the past few months!! I have been so freakin' busy since January.....and have stayed on the road or in the workshop, and haven't had much time to blog-visit! Aside from posting and job-hunting (I finally finished school) I don't seem to be on the computer much, and I sure miss everyone. You guys are the BEST!!
