i get a lot of ideas

I have a very busy existence running a little restaurant and having a little garden and getting lots of ideas that I don't have time to enact. I got this great idea to start a blog of all the ideas I get, and then at least I won't keep forgetting them; and if I ever suddenly become three or more people, I can try a few of them out. In the meantime, if anyone else wants to try any of my ideas, they are now and always free free free and quite possibly terrible.

I begin.

leaf baubles

I was going to do this in Autumn and collected a bunch of leaves, but just got too busy, of course, and my leaves all dried up. The idea is this: you blow up a balloon and then take beautiful autumn leaves and paper mache them onto the balloon so they are just overlapping each other, but are mostly forming a sphere of empty space. Wait for it to dry and pop the balloon, then hang the resulting bauble(s) from whatever.

I'm hoping to try this again this Autumn.
