pom-pom's anyone?

pom-pom garland for itty-bitty tree, originally uploaded by artjunkgrl.

Ok, so I made my first pom-pom garland for a little tree I put in my daughter's room before she arrived home for winter break. Oh...she loved it. Sometimes the simplest things bring some joy, color and fun into your day! Anyhoo...I art "junked" it up a bit with leftover beads from the girls "bead bin"...you know the one....it's the bin you immediately grab to house the 10,000 piece bead kits they get for birthday presents from people who have not a clue what this means to a mother of 4 trying to keep her house in some semblance of order....I literally hear the sounds of beads tinkling across the floor even when I say, "wait, don't open that yet, let me get 'the bin'"....Oops, too late, tinkle, tinkle, down they go into the vents and what not. Oh, what to do, what to do...it's all good right? Ok, well, I certainly got off on a tangent this morning. Anyhoo, I already have a "special order" from my daughter's best friend whom wants one for her room too. tee hee. So, in between shopping and decorating...I will be making pom-pom garlands and whatever else I can think of. The simplest things amuse me. Yes. But that is what life is all about if you ask me. Off I go now. Be back soon! xo Lia
