No Tulips for now :( but Cacti

Well actually I was working on some more tulips

I promised to make some tulips 

for this project

and I also offered Norma to make some for her.

But I guess it has to wait a bit longer than I expected...

My left hand still hurts and I can't seem
to manage to wrap the leaves

on the stems (is that how it is called?) of the tulips :(
They are ready and waiting now for their finishing touch!

Well... I just have to be a little more patience ;)
I know Norma doesn't mind,
but I don't know how long I have for the
project we are working on with a bunch of miniaturists?
I believe it was until Easter? Does anyone know??

In the meanwhile I am searching for things that I can do...

This is what I started today:

A while ago I saw this great tutorial from Casey's Minis

how to make cacti form potpourri!!

Am am a real cacti freak! I just love them!

Not only because they are easy to keep alive here in Greece 

when it gets so hot in the summer lol!

I started with painting the pieces of potpourri this morning :)

Still have to find something that I can use for a pot 

or dish to put them in...

But I won't be working at any more minis today,

I think it is better to give my hand some rest,

 so I can finish those tulips real soon ;)
