idea: paintbrush vase

simple, fun, unique.  definitely my style! unfortunately i don't have directions on how to make this but i'm sure it's incredibly easy.  i mean, i bet it could be recreated with paintbrushes (either old or found at a dollar store -- or both), a simple vase (again, either found around the house, at a dollar store, or Goodwill), a hot glue gun, and some twine.  a simple project for a simply lovely vase ~

and now for a personal note . . .

i'm considering starting a second blog for more personal posts.  i just think it would be out of place to write about book reviews and personal struggles on pretty things since it is a blog for, well, pretty things!  the question is: would anyone read it?  would anyone care??  i'm not necessarily interesting and i'm certainly not an exceptional writer, but i do love to write and love to give myself new challenges, which this would certainly be!

your thoughts??
