ooooooo over the prizes. Charleen I just LUV them. Thumbs up YOU GO Brenda!

Deb the leafs are made from weaving braided and knotted long pipe cleaners together. I just made up designs as I went along so each leaf is different. I found it easiest to pinch and mold one braid or twist into the leave shape and then weave and knot into and around the shape. Does that make sense? Let me know if not and I'll take pics of the steps.

ps I luv pipe cleaners cuz they are inexpensive, easy to use and kind about fixing oops AND no glue is involved.
