With a little work, they became perfect curtain rods. I also love using tiny pine cones as "tassels" on things...<br /><br />(going back to lurk mode...)coffeewomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12319557854588837578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073231987777520786.post-34971193736282428082010-02-26T12:17:23.703-05:002010-02-26T12:17:23.703-05:00nice post. thanks.nice post. thanks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073231987777520786.post-69484488158981740192010-02-22T13:03:38.950-05:002010-02-22T13:03:38.950-05:00I can't believe someone else has one of those ...I can't believe someone else has one of those hives in their house!

So, I had to pretend I was just walking around until the po-po left. <br /><br />Then, went through a series of heart stopping tests to be sure it was empty. I drove home with it in a bag and my hand out the window the whole way home :)<br /><br />I stuck it in the freezer overnight to be sure they were dead and then decorated it.

One morning I went out to the garden and it was shredded beyond belief and all the plants around it looked like something big had rolled all around. We figured it was a black bear and found it funny to think that somewhere in Virginia was a black bear with a Very swollen nose!<br />PS..remember..tomm is Pieday!
