I had a few projects on my to-do list this week, so when a snowstorm rolled through and granted me a snow day I got really excited. Unfortunately, when I went to gather up my supplies I could not find my hot glue gun!
Really, what self-respecting crafter is ever without her glue gun!?
Instead of sipping hot chocolate, watching the snow and making delightful glue string and feathery messes, I ran around my house in a fruitless search for the stupid thing. Then I got bored and started watching Downton Abbey. (Alas, I continued to be bored as I watched..)
But today I visited my mom, and I found my trusty glue gun in a pile of my old craft supplies in the basement. This evening I was able to make these pretties..

The color on this is a little off.. imagine the purple slightly redder and the blue slightly greener and you've got it.
Now I want to make an Edwardian-style formal sun hat for my mom, but with simpler embellishments. Perhaps a felt flower or two, some ribbon or organza tied around it..
