How stunning the pictures look in a group on your wall. Very beautiful!<BR/>I do have a question on whether or not you know how long these will last framed?<BR/>Thanks for such a great idea we have tons of woods to get some treasures in.Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07365628016260943621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-42167166452679468172007-05-03T18:34:00.000-05:002007-05-03T18:34:00.000-05:00i think it looks wonderful!i think it looks wonderful!Melissa Stoverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12839619836478423452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-2431688677506679692007-04-25T07:18:00.000-05:002007-04-25T07:18:00.000-05:00Milehighmama,thanks for the warning.

My frames are slightly larger than a legal size sheet of paper, though, so I suspect it is cheaper to press for this project. Also, I like the 3 dimensional look of the real leaf, even if it doesn't last as long.<BR/><BR/>We can press new leaves every year!Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08455517419708043340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-75773742953043322962007-04-25T07:00:00.000-05:002007-04-25T07:00:00.000-05:00Alexandra,If you had boys anything like MY boys, y...Alexandra,<BR/>If you had boys anything like MY boys, you'd know safety warnings for everything too LOL!<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://milehimama.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">Mama Says</A>Milehimama @ Mama Sayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04755353355022539817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-53273765456293967782007-04-24T21:00:00.000-05:002007-04-24T21:00:00.000-05:00P.S.

"Curious Sofa" had the even more clever idea of copying the fauna with an antique page behind it. Tres Chic!<BR/><BR/>I just love your ideas, and refer to your pix often. Thanks for the pleasure you bring.<BR/><BR/>Marthamarthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09164689050291726804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-19184357063875050912007-04-24T16:40:00.000-05:002007-04-24T16:40:00.000-05:00Wow, I LOVE this!

So don't let the kids pick any green fruit, or leaves or stems - the YELLOW, ripe fruit is edible though!<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://milehimama.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">Mama Says</A>Milehimama @ Mama Sayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04755353355022539817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-7925032375143722962007-04-24T14:03:00.000-05:002007-04-24T14:03:00.000-05:00That is too cute!
