We have a bit of a "life giving us lemons" scenario going on.
Pop up a prayer for my family, if you would.
I showed you my sprinkling of lemons a few weeks ago.
I've loved the pop of yellow these add to our summer home.
I have a collection of adorable vintage beaded fruit.
Let's play "what's missing?".
I needed to have a beaded lemon in my life.
Needed!
Not to mention, I was sick with a weird bug and stuck on the couch.
I made the little beaded strawberry in the above photos, so I knew what to do.
I collected my supplies.
I assembled my faux fruit of choice, beads in the appropriate color and yellow iridescent sequins.
Beading pins are similar to straight pins but they are a little shorter in length.
You can find them in the beading aisle at the craft store.
Pick up a pin, put on a bead and then put on a sequin.
Stick into the lemon.
I watched crime shows and rested on the couch.
Update: I decided I wanted more of the sequin to show, so I went and got larger sequins to put on each pin.
Either way was fine but this looks a little more vintage.
Sometimes you just cannot make lemonade out of lemons.
As I was writing my other lemony post, phrases flitted through my head concerning our current lemon situation.
If life gives you lemons - kick them to the curb.
If life gives you lemons - beat them to a pulp.
If life gives you lemons - squeeze the heck out of them.
If life give you lemons - grate the rind off of them.
If life gives you lemons - stick them with a pin.
