Such a crafty gal

My BFF, Gucci, is a crafty kinda gal. She can make anything out of anything.

Remember this?


You name it, she can make something totally cool with it.

So, of course, when she wanted to take the clam shells home after dinner at my house one night, I had to tease her about what in the world she was going to make with them.

A toilet seat cover? A pencil holder? A night light?

Maybe another beautiful candle holder like the one she made this summer (with oyster shells and a piece of snow fencing from the beach)?

Here's what she made!
For my birthday...
An amazing shell wreath with all of my books on it.
How cool is that?

It was in a box with her photo in the middle, which was an LOL moment. (And she actually had a round box that she saved from who-knows-where.)

It came with this note from a one-legged pigeon (the "star" of my work-in-progress):

Thanks, friend!
I'm so lucky.
