OWOH Sneak Peaks 1 & 2 ... plus a reminder

I'll start with the reminder:


If you aren't familiar with the gLOBAL gUERILLA (K)NIT UP,
click the image above to be wowed ... who knows, you might want to play, too!
be sure to check out some of her more recent posts as grrl has made some
super terrific suggestions in regards to alternate materials & being prepared.

Next up ... here are the first two sneak peaks at what you will find in the cigar box that I am offering up for One World One Heart 2009
:


Pictured Above: 6 champagne corks & one tile (imported from Italy)

AND:


Pictured above: 12 shiny little shells & 6 cranes

more about the cranes: all were folded from 1 1/4" inch squares then dipped in a setting agent that has made them more substantial - but not beyond crushable - painted with acrylic paint & coated with gloss varnish.

(click HERE to see where some of them ended up)


At last check, the number of participants had jumped to an unbelievable 737!
WHOA!

I love your daughter's name, That is very interesting. I named Dawn after my favorite cousin. I love the name and Her middle name is my mother's, Violet...She has never been happy with that choice. So nice to hear from you,I'll tell you of one of my strange coincidences later when I have more time and a little quiet, have a wonderful night!

The growing part keep sticking in the back of my brain...and I thought, it's sort of cowardly to take the easy path. But I do believe I will need a four wheel drive for the path I've chosen!
