"Note"worthy

Wondering what I did with the twigs and the old hymn book?

Well.... we have this weird empty corner in our music room

where piano meets couch, (small room, big furniture). I've

watched enough HGTV to know that my weird corner is a

no no. The problem is....we don't have money to go out and

buy new furniture, so I decided that maybe I could at least do

something to soften the assault on the eyes.

It is important to me that the things in our home have personal

meaning. So I thought that rather than go to the store and buy

a fake tree, or a screen, I would make something from things

that mean something to us. So I snipped of a bunch of limbs

from our favorite tree and found an old hymn book (we have

a bunch of them) to make into leaves, and now we have a....

"NOTE"WORTHY TREE

It's not to tough to figure out how it's done.

Just make a leaf template and trace leaves onto a page.
I cut several pages out at a time so all of them weren't

outlined.

To remedy this I just went around the edge of each

leaf with a permanent marker.

Next you put glue on the back of two leaves.
Adhere them to the end of the branch, one being the front
of the leaf, the other the back.

I didn't try to be precise and perfect with the outlining.

Problem solved....weird corner is softened.
