The reason why I never became a florist...

Today I shoved a pick from the Dollar Tree into this fake plant and I am calling it a "fall decoration" on my coffee table....
Proof positive why I would never had been successful as a florist!

    OMGosh, woman...I see where you do MC knockoffs. I am so so in love with MC..I only have a very few pieces and I'm pretty sure they will go to my grave with me so I can enjoy them in Heaven forever and ever..amen!! Now, if I had a clue where to get that tissue paper, I might just try making something. Since I don't have a crafting bone in my entire body, I am sure I would screw it up...but you have given me inspiration to want to try it....

    I can't find the black and whites...the link you gave me isn't working. gonna try again as I am OLDEN and tend to misread somtimes. That's my story and I'm stickin' with it.:)
    I can't wait to go back and see more of your posts. You are, indeed, a woman after my own heart and here you have black and white, even on your pretty blog.And, I am your newest follower..whew..I said all that without taking a breath....

    I tried again and still can't get the page to pull up.
    I also want to email you a pic of a table Mr. Sweet did for me. And, my kitchen backsplash he also did for me. I am a true lover of black and white..checks, especially.:)

    It looks much better than my fall mistreatment! I have a cute pumpkin pitcher that I stuck some random yard dried(dead) herbs and ivy in. It didn't look too bad until the cat ate most of it......could it have been the dried catnip????
