Seriously, chicken wire?
When I think chicken wire, this farm girl's brain isn't anywhere near chickens. I'm thinking of mixing the glam with the glum, or the shab with the chic.
[Image]http://www.raisedincotton.typepad.com/Cloches made of chicken wire when paired with white tulips and a hint of an elegant doily, make a great marriage.
My favorite creations designed with chicken wire are crowns:

[Image]flickr: marianne@sonbird'sChicken wire in cupboard doors isn't just for country decor. It's a little bit French Country, a little bit Shabby Chic, and a whole lot of elegant. Silver platters and chicken wire, woo hoo!!! [Image]http://www.casasugar.blogspot.com/
Now for the easy peasy project idea called, "Frame your Chicken Wire, or Chicken Wire Your Frame"*find an old frame and spray paint, brush paint, or hey, leave as is*cut chicken wire with a wire cutters a little larger then the frame opening*using an electric or heavy duty upholstery hand stapler, staple wire to the back of the frame*add a picture hanger, or wire for hanging*use decorative clips, clothes pins or ribbons to add pretty bits and pieces, pictures, or cards to the chicken wire

Hope you're having a great week. Ele
