i know, i know!i'm rutty!
prone to ruts!
rutalicious!
i latch onto something and run with it...
run, run, run...until it passes out by the
side of the road wheezing and gasping
for breath! ;}
like with my itty bitty beads...after i did the seashells, my roving eye just kept looking
for other things...any things...to slather in glue...and a
healthy dose of beads!
and as my cats were ever so uncooperative! {well, that goes withoutsaying since...like i said...they are cats! ;}
i had to turn my rutty, unimaginative sights elsewhere...to things
more inanimate {and that can't claw or bite! ;}
this tiny box seemed safe enough...and it held perfectlystill whilst i slathered...then added a semi-cheesy "island
tourist" flower{...says the island tourist! ;}
i have plans for this...and soon to be these!i kinda like-y lotta love it!
unimaginative ruts are the mother of invention, right?! ;}

ReplyDeletePretty! The thought of you looking over at your cats reminds me of those Hallmark cards with the cats & dogs with huge, bug eyes like, "Oh, crap." ;)
ReplyDeleteNow that is one cute little beady eyed box. xo Diana
ReplyDeleteSo pretty...and beautiful photography too!
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling that one of these days the cat is gonna get it, one way or another, lol. It can't escape your, errmm, artistic endeavours forever.
ReplyDeleteGosh that is so pretty.

Your work is so beautiful and your photos so perfect. I ought to do some little beaded boxes for my little granddaughters. I think they'd like them. Maybe I'd use little buttons. Thanks for the inspiration.
