Nellie the Nest Lady in the Honeysuckles

Nellie - the Nest Lady

A true Story - kind of.... Nellie was a Nest Lady born in 1997 in a land far away probably called Utah. Marilyn was an artist who lived in another far away land called somewhere on the east coast. She and Nellie lived together until Marilyn's art work took a different turn and she sent Nellie and her Nests packin' -- But then, as is so true in life, she wished that Nellie would find her way back home. But no, alas, Greedy People in a land called Ebay wanted too much money for a 97 Nellie.

Drum roll, please. In came one from the Honeysuckle Breeze who slays the ebayers with enthusiasm and Nellie came to her in no time flat. Don't mess with ebay slayer, dudes. She will slash your price and beat your bid and you won't know what hit. Last 30 seconds. BAM.

So she painted an ugly brown box

Put some 7 Gypsies tape around it


Stamped it,

Gathered Nellie and gave Nellie a new box (and also sent her original 97 box along with her),

Added a little ribbon for the old gal


and then the Hard Times Chili Boy took over. I love to make notepads out of old boxes of cereal, chili, hose, you name it, I will make it. Well, kind of, if you saw the closet and all those broken down boxes waiting for homes. I should just make them and then figure out what to do with them. LOL. Yes, it will come to me at some point. Chili boy had all sorts of pages added to him,


And now Hard Times is off in the box with Nellie. Yes, we all wish them a safe journey and now I need to go make some garlic bread because I am dining with Larcy, Phil, and pup Oliver. Couldn't be a better Sunday. And just one last request, say a thank you to all the slayers out there..... remember Buffy? the Vampire Slayer! Yes! we loved our Buffy and Cordelia and Faith and ...... Giles was to die for, that sexy British hunk..... OK, need to go put the garlic bread in the oven my little honeysuckle peeps....
