Thinking of Spring - Beaded Flowers

I am stuck on --- When will winter go away and spring come???? Please bear with me.

These tiny beaded flower I found this weekend while digging in my attic. I guess I should dig around my attic everyday. wink** Who knows what I could find .

I have been thinking about how to use these pretty little things . I am going to use them to decorate the Easter gifts I give to the ones I love . I like the outward appearance of each gift I give to reflect some aspect of the taste of the person to whom I am giving it to and possibly have a reference of the gift itself. These will work perfectly.

If I do not post for a couple days you will know where I am--IN THE ATTIC !

Because I had NOTHING else to do

I thought I would make some new valances. hahaha

I love how the sun shines through them. I love the swirly flower sheer fabric. However, my favorite part are the beads.

What is it? AND What to do with it?

I need your creative ideas to flow through cyber world to me! Very heavy

Right now it's just leaning against the wall .. sitting on vintage suitcases. Not to creative.
Any ideas?

I am so frustrated I could spit

Alright since I think spitting is gross, I won't.

I am super-de-duper frustrated.

I have cabin fever in a major way. I have repainted my kids room, built loft beds for them (well, master builder hubby did) and now I'm on to re-arranging the house. I can't figure it out. I can't make it work (fit). I may just end up putting it all back the way it was. (UGH!!!!)
(Negative thoughts, I know)


My oh so wise hubby's words of wisdom are:

"If it's not broke, don't fix it"

My words of wisdom are:

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
