In case you were wondering

When I showed you my clothespin barrels the other day did you wonder what I did with the metal spring part after I took the clothespins apart? Yeah I knew  you did. I bet it's been bothering you ever since too.
Well let it bother you no more. I happened to see an idea on Pinterest that led me to a clothespin spring star ornament tutorial.

They don't have a hanger on them yet but these are my stars. I found that some of them move around more than others and will lose their shape easily. I dabbed a little glue where the springs connect to help them hold their shape.

Indecision

Believe it or not I've already chosen my craft project for the month of March. I've decided to do some mixed media pieces on wood. It's sort of like my index cards just creating on wood instead of paper.
I purchased some small wood shapes and I already had some wood plaques that I'll be using as well.

Now comes the part about indecision. This is a 3" square wood shape. In addition to the painting and assorted doo dada I glued on I'll also be adding a word. I'm going to use one word inspirations for these. I have the word Focus printed out and ready to attach to this one.

 

The problem I'm having is I can't decide if I want to put a magnet on the back of it or if I want to drill a hole at the top and make it an ornament. Of course I probably should have drilled the hole before I did all the painting but I don't always do things the easy way

If it was you, which would you prefer?

A little advice

Is it spring yet

Hurry up Spring. I'm getting desperate. This picture is from a year or so ago. The flower was made from my footprints in the snow and then I colored it in photoshop.

I'm getting tired of snow and gray skies. I need sunshine and flowers
