While on a recent trip to P.E.I. Canada, with two of my sisters, I couldn't help but admire all the beautiful trees and unimaginable green! You see we had just left a bit of bad weather behind!
We kept ourselves amused on the plane as it was a four and a half hour flight to Montreal and another jaunt to PEI. I have no pictures to share but I will say that one should never fall asleep on the airplane when her two younger sisters are ramped up for a good time.
One thing I did notice were the quaint little fishing villages over every hill and around every bend in the road.
What I was so excited to share with you all, is what I found on the ground.
I expect I looked somewhat out of sorts, knelt down under a large oak tree, harvesting acorns with the squirrels. I know it's no big deal to most, but to a prairie girl, It's like winning the lottery. Oh all the things I can do with these!!
 |
| Drill small hole in cap. |
 |
| Mix up a thinner glue mix using a little bit of water and glue. |
 |
| Coat the acorn nut parts in the glue mix. |
 |
| Roll in glitter. |
 |
| Tied a loop in some string and poked the ends into the cap. |
 |
| Added some hot glue to hold the ends in place and under the nut. |
 |
| Glued the nut into the cap. |
 |
| Cut out some Christmas tree tags. |
 |
| Stamped each tag with some silver ink and a stamp |
 |
| Taped the string on the tag and trimmed the overlapping tape with scissors. |
 |
| This cool little stamp has 4 sides with different verses on each side. |
I hope the that the recipients can appreciate the fact that I stole nuts from those poor hungry squirrels.
Cheers!
