Yay?

So here is my tree - it didn't turn out exactly how I envisioned (I'm good at drawing, not painting, and I don't ever do things on such a large scale), but overall I'm happy with it. It was my Thanksgiving project - I finished it up today. And my room is a mess.. ignore that part.

Ignore the messy couch.


But I need a little help! I want to put some origami flowers on the wall too around the branches, but I can't find a decent pattern. Ideally, I want something like this:



But maybe those are just doilies? I can't tell. If the flower idea fails, I'm just going to tack some paper cranes to the wall/hang some from the ceiling.

Here's another pic, sans-couch. Yes, the ugly walls really do change colour depending on lighting.

Yes, the walls really do shift colour.

Cool tree.

I added you to my blog list kiddo.

I've been subscribed to you for months. ;)

You're better at keeping up then I am.

Man I never realized you only live a few hours away from Montreal. Your town looks crazy on the map. How many people are in Portsmouth?

I've never been to Canada, how sad is that? It's my neighbor and I've probably been a few short miles from the border, but never over.

I just looked up Portsmouth's population.. apparently last year there was 20,495 people. It feels like a typical small town most of the time, but I love it quite a lot.

You should come up and visit sometime. This city is awesome.

Holy crap, maybe I could as a birthday present to myself. HMM.

(I'm not in school. I'm too old for that business.)

No you're not :)

Anyway, think about it.
