However, this time I am thinking of Christmas (it was cold here today) and decorations and I was on Pinterest OK so I cannot be blamed for this as they just appear on the screen and I was just tempted to make it.....
Hum hum..... as I was saying, I made a Christmas decoration today for the latest October challenge at Unstampabelles, which is

I went for Ribbon, Lace and String this time........
Yes, there is a prize
I started with a polystyrene ball and a ball of garden string.....oh, and some glue!
Put glue on ball, wind on string.....
Keep doing it until you get to the middle and turn ball over - keep going
Leave to dry overnight - then add a loop. The pin holds it in place.
Meantime, pick all the glue off your fingers and fingernails......
Add a strip of lace,followed by a strip of ribbon... and then some baubles and bling!
Hung it on the lime tree
Another angle
and another (on the rhododendron this time in the sun)
A final shot to see the bottom and sides more clearly
Cute, huh!
You have two weeks left to enter the challenge
Remember, no stamps please!

This is a great way to make a bauble, love the rustic feel of the string with the lace and the traditional colors of the pompom and gems!
Great decoration. How many are you making? I can imagine a tree covered in these.
