Sometimes ideas are so great "in your mind" BUT...

Do you know what I mean?
You've been thinking about an idea forever and
FINALLY you have the time to work on it!
Then...
it's a total EPIC FAIL!!
(This is SO Noah's phrase right now :)

A few images for you:







Here's my project:
I have several abandoned bird's nests that my sons have given me ~
I've been trying to think of a great way to display them....
and I'm always, ALWAYS wanting to hang more stuff on our walls.
SO ~
I had several old cabinet doors that I'd painted a few years back ~
they were signs that didn't sell in my antique space.
So I covered the sign part with pages from an old ledger and
thought that small "hammocks" would be a great way to hold
these nests that are so fragile.....
Well.
It looks like the nests are wearing diapers to me!!!!
So back to the drawing board on this project ~
I'll probably go with the wire...but they are so crumbly.
I'll be sure to share pics of it finished too!






Creating is such a learning experience, isn't it?
Trying to make something beautiful CAN turn out to be an EPIC FAIL
but the key is to move on and think of an alternative.
