    I thought someone might want to see them up close so they could make them.

    Let's see: christmas lights, washers, and some coated wire--Yup, got all that, now all I have to find is some talent!
    Love those bugs, and right now I'm not all that fond of most bugs. It's the buggy season in Texas!

    Lovely bugs to have in the garden. I've seen these at various craft shows and really should buy one. I keep saying I will make one but never get around to it.

    hmm, those would look very pretty hanging from my little dogwood in the backyard!

    Thank you for the inspiration.
