Use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without. Tuesday, October 30, 2012. Greta and I played around with another Pinterest idea: turning leaves into skeletons.

It was fun to try it out, but I'm not sure it is worth it to me to go to all the work it takes to skeleton-ize them. Thursday, October 25, 2012. Pinterest Craft Day #13. Leaf Art" was...

I've been reading rave reviews by bloggers for the spray paint made by Rustoleum, called Universal Advanced Formula Satin Paint and Primer In One.
