It was lovely to open my comment box and find all your wonderful, supportive notes and suggestions about hanging When I Was Three as well as all the loveliness you always leave in your wake. :o) All great ideas. I used no mas claves (no more nails) glue to adhere the ruler and material on to the metal piece, however, then there was the issue of something to actually hang it from onto the wall. I rooted around (Valerie would say in her hall closet) ... I say EVERYWHERE (because I'm still so unorganized) ... and found some little plastic hangers which you use to hang twinkle lights from. I glued four of those to the back of the ruler, ran some ribbon through them and IT WORKED. Here's a better photo than yesterday, without me clinging to it in front of a computer screen!
By the way, Gerri, I did check out the crop a dial. Looks fantastic. My only concern is perhaps I would not be able to purchase grommets here which would fit the machine. I'll have to check it out.
Then I moved on to mail art. I'm a little behind in that department. Had fun today, writing a few letters and decorating a couple of envelopes.
OK, so that was that. I took a break, had a late lunch, tried to occupy myself. Honestly, I'm so restless these days. Anyone else? Is it Spring Fever? So, up to the Studio I went and worked on some earrings.

| You may remember the metal filigree balls I found at the market. This is one of them. They are light as feathers and I think might make some nice earrings. Experimenting at the moment. |

Beautiful, just beautiful! I am rather frustrated this morning, having issues with blogger, it keeps asking me to sign in again and again andagain- aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh! I'll mail you later when I have cooled off a bit! Hugs, Valerie
Sleep-deprived and yet creatively productive! Way to go. The bird earrings really caught my eye especially. And good resolution on hanging the "Three" piece. So much to look at in a small space. Mail art- exciting. Busy you. Get a nap.
