I was looking at a blog I had in '09. Came across a picture of this beautiful blue Hydrangea, we had back then. And they never produced abundant flowers again. -pout- We are ready to cut them down!

Do you do that, on occasion? Look back at your blog entries, for ~ say ~ Like August of a few years in the past? It interesting. To see how-our-mind-was-working, way back when. -grin-
What is it? A Grasshopper????? On the outside of the patio screen door?

Could not get a good pic of him, from inside the screen. When I put flash on, it simply lit-up the screen grid. ,-)
Quelle horreur !
My camera is out of batteries. And I used the last 2 up, last time.
Eeeeeeek! We always keep back-up batteries on hand. But not this time. An early jaunt to the Hardware Store is needed. :-)))))
OK... So what's to do? Go wandering in my blog, back in Aug. of 2009, again. And reap some beauty, form there!!!

And look what I found! A gorgeous project, made by "Fabulous Fifi."
Go to this post, and scroll down, and find there detailed instructions on how she made this. A hint...
From a wire basket and strands of pearls from a store's Bridal Section.
I haven't visited "Chez Fifi" blog in ages. She finds/does such amazingly beautiful things. I can't DO that. But it's lovely to look at the pictures. :-)
Here are some other examples, of what you'll find, on her blog...

no fun with dead batteries.....great photos from the past...
i like the pearl chandelier and did look how she made it, but if did that it would NOT look like hers. great idea. all 5 of my digital cameras, starting with number 1 in 2002, i made sure they had rechargeable batteries. but then one time i forgot to recharge the batter, so i bought a second one and kept it charged and ready just in case. hope you have your batteries by now.
Great photos. I've never gone back to my old blog posts. I should do that -- someday!
Peace,

Lovely images from Fifi!
I give very little time to reviewing or thinking about the past. Somehow the present manages to keep me too busy.:)
Do some research on how to get your blue hydrangea back...it's not too tough, but I can't remember which way it goes. They'll be blooming blue for next year for certain.
Yes, what lovely things your friend does. I have not visited there for a long time.
The hydrangea needs a very acidic anvironment to be blue. You can add this to the soil around the plant. The grasshopper is a katydid. :) Nice old blog posts! :)
What beautiful photos you had on earlier posts...I love them. You are quite handy with the camera! Wishing you a delightful evening and week to come!

Once in a while yes, I do go back and take a look at some old blog entries.
Looked like a grasshopper to me.
