dirty little tires in a tree...





Okay, they are not really DIRTY tires, but it sounded more dramatic....Here is a super top secret peek at one of the elements I am working on for the Monster Jam Dirtfest. I have tied these little tires to this silver wire tree with twine. Looks tough, but with a bit of tenderness...LOL! Trying very hard to keep the balance or macho and marvelous....I love it because it is so unexpected and just interesting and funny to gaze upon. This wire tree was a Homegoods find. It was originally in a shabby, distressed cream color and on top of that, the paint was chipping pretty badly. Extreme shabbiness. I took care of that with a few coats of spray paint and I think it is a jazzy little tree-perfect size and way versatile.

If you look closely, you will see this is the very same tree I used for my Rock Candy Chandelier presentation at the Super Grover Rave...Mama is resourceful and loooooves to reuse and recycle the stuff she makes...

Back to work over here....
