I've been thinking I'm going to have to do what you suggest and paint some existing flowers and that's no problem but I REALLY want an oversized flytrap. :lol: I can't make one of those. I was at Old Time Pottery today and I was looking for some creepy jungle vines to drape across the roof of my bar and all they had was ivy. Boring. I thought Spencers might have some of this sort of thing around Halloween but thats quite a bit to wait.
