My creative space…

March 3, 2011 54 Comments by Kirsty

In my space today it’s still about the garden.

I was out at Bunnings picking up a few bits & pieces for the garden when I had a little light bulb moment. I left with a piece of artificial grass, came home & got straight to work in the garage.

I’m super excited about this one.

We’re trialling the picture link thingo this week. So pop in & add your link if you’re playing along. Big ups to Jessyz for the most recent nudge.

    Oooh I love a bit of fake turf – I have a big roll in my garage for crafty projects. The only problem is that it’s really hard to cut through the bottom plasticy layer. Can’t wait to see what you come up with!

    Ah, for the love of the hardwarestore!! Notice they don’t talk to you like a clueless bimbo anymore either, they actually know we have big $$ to spend & have a clue + i find they are interested in my very alternative use of what hardware i’m buying, for something crafty!! I’ve actually picked up clients & orders from well meaning hardware employees who say “my wife would love that”. Love Posie

    Woh! Fancy Schmancy link there! So cool – hope it works well, I like it :)

    Astro turf is one of my big loves – can’t explain it, just LOVE it. Love real grass too, not saying I’m a plastics person, but maybe it just appeals to the control freak in me ;) Have fun with yours! Kx
