Glass Bottle Garden Ornaments or Chimes

Hello, we’re alive and haven’t fallen off the face of the earth! We’ve had a lot we’ve been preoccupied with in recent months so the posts are still a bit slow.

Rustic Tillandsia Log with Favorite Quote

Greetings people! Sorry our posts have slowed down a bit but we’ve been going through a bit of a creative block. I guess that happens to most of us from time to time.

A Simple Barbed Wire Wreath

I saw some barbed wire that we had hanging on the back fence. I thought of our friend who recently made a barbed wire wreath as a Christmas gift and I thought, hmmmm….. Sure, it’s been done before but I felt like I wanted to give it a shot to see what I could do […]

Tillandsia Terrarium in a Mason Jar Mug

Howdy people! Yes, our posts have slowed down a bit and I’ll tell ya…..getting use to a new medication can mess with you as it has with me. I’m feeling more productive today so I figured I had better get to typing! We made these Mason Jar Mug Terrariums for the Atomic Holiday Bazaar this […]

I think it was 3 […]

Tillandsia Beach Landscape in Bamboo

We cleaned out the garage yesterday and found more bamboo tucked away in a dark spider infested corner. Today we sat here looking at it wondering what to do with it….
