I am in love with Sign Language. Ever since I was a little girl I have loved this language. It has led me to my fascination and slight obsession with hands. I have an ever growing collection of hands. I was inspired by the website www.skulladay.com and decided I needed to start my own 365 day project. It took me awhile to get the nerve up to start but I thought the best day to begin would be on my 30th birthday so thanks for joining me on this long and wild journey.

Dandy Handy
Today is day number 30!! It has been a whole month, how time flies when you are having fun!! I have been wanting to use a dandelion for one of my projects for a while now, I would run past them but was far from home and didn't want to travel holding a very fragile dandelion. Today though, I found a prime specimen in the yard of a neighbor ( I have to think they wouldn't mind me picking this out of their yard. I first tried to get the green thingings on the bottom to make a hand. It is hard to see in the picture though. Then I tried to shape a hand by picking out each seed separately, one by one. That seemed to be very challenging so I ended up pulling them all out and gluing 5 seeds back in place. They were so fragile and tough to work with, but I still think it is cute.
