We got another layer of powdery snow today, which seems a fitting end to this much-too-snowy month. I’m really looking forward to seeing some green outside soon. Tonight I started on a green pysanky egg with a leaf design to help me think of spring and warm weather. Maybe it’s a good sign that I’m posting an unfinished thing with my last post. I plan to keep working on the egg tomorrow, and perhaps that will help me continue this pattern of doing stuff. I’ve really enjoyed this past month, especially seeing all the cool things that other people did. Thanks everyone!

OK, so not beads yet. More canes. The leaf was a try at a sawtooth edge like a real rose leaf has, the pink rose matches the crimson one from my start of the month item. Tomorrow they all go on beads!

I have some Tupperware and “Deli” containers that are roughly the shape of Bento Lunch Boxes. But, they are just random containers unless you have something to hold them together in a stack. So, I made some straps from black elastic and added some felt decoration to cover the seam.
