Un-Lucky Catch

Going for gold this St. Patrick's Day season...

 

... gold chain, made from stickers and string...

... gold nuggets, made from river rock and spray paint (bonus: a new family picture at last).

Throw in a horseshoe to catch some good luck...

... but the only thing we caught was the sick bug!  Onyx and I threw up all day Saturday, leaving us in bad shape for the holiday.

Signed, Sealed, Delivered

Inspiration:

The painting was to be done in this same manner (originally created by me for the Salt Lake Parade of Homes, then purchased by my sister), only with more organic trees (vs. abstract), and colors that worked in to the surrounding space.

Key to my (Broken) Heart

A little inspiration along with some already owned supplies combined to create our Valentine's Day decor.  We strung some playing cards for a look that wasn't too sweet.

Pom-poms and doilies carried over to the entry.

Jar of hearts with skeleton keys...

  
As seen here...

And here...

Sadly, we lost a glass lid as Onyx pulled a jar forward when excitedly showing off the hearts inside.  My heart broke right along with the lid.

We made a chandelier...

Out of this inspiration...

Bonus:  Onyx artfully arranged all the pom-poms atop the credenza and the floor.
