enJOY it

an archived personal and craft blog from Elise Blaha Cripe.

I spent the last 1.5 weeks making paper flowers. 280 of them for the window display at work.

My nails look like crap, my hands are dry from the constant washing off of the glue, my feet hurt from standing and my left hand keeps cramping up.

BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?

Our window is going to look fantastic.

And beyond that I still want to play with paper.

*Insert photo of paper flower here. I left my one souvenir on the metro.

    This sounds like such a great visual looking in from M St. I hope you’re going to show us a photo of the entire window display, too. I used to do retail display work and LOVED it, but I know what you mean about the hand-washing.
