Thank you Summer Finn

So as many of you know...I love 500 Days of Summer. So one of the many times I was watching the movie...and I saw her paper crane tree in the scene where Tom goes to her house for the first time.



So I've been talking about doing it for a long time, but I finally made my very own. I went to hobby lobby and bought all the supplies.
So then not only did I buy all the supplies....I demonstrated my awesome paper crane making skills. I made a lot of paper cranes until I found the size that was just right for my tree. Then I attached some cute ribbon to the cranes and they were ready to hang....but I needed to find a branch!

Mark and I went and to a park and looked at branches....until I found one I actually liked. It was pretty cold...then we speed away in hopes that no tree huggers busted us for tearing apart a tree.

And there it is. The finished product. I'm so unbelievably proud of this. Thank you Summer Finn.
