Just finished Rylan's step stool. I noticed Rishanne eyeing the ones I previously made at the Holiday Market, and she mentioned that she wanted one for Rylan. A few days later Linda Hunter asked if I could paint a step stool for Rishanne. She had no idea that Rishanne wanted one! Hope Rylan gets lots of use out of it in the future!
I made a trip to Michael's Monday and got this wild hair to make a couple of Valentine topiaries since I don't have many Valentine decorations. With supplies I had at home and what I bought with my 40% coupon, these would cost me less than 6 bucks each. 
Cutting the styrofoam was a mess. Next time I will try my electric knife to cut it! 
I just thought cutting styrofoam was a mess until I got into the spanish moss! I had it everywhere including stuck all over me! Only 1 bag did one heart, but I had a bag in the attic. The only problem was that it was just plain and not green, so I got out the green spray paint! After all of this, I could not wait to get finished. Painting the pots was the best part!
I put them on each side of the mantel for now. They may be moved after I stare at them for awhile. IF I decide to make another topiary, I will use something else to cover the styrofoam rather than that messy moss!
