There once was a horse that had nothing to do. Hmm. So, it was not. There once was a girl named Freya - she had nothing to do. A pack of straws and a little glue later ...
Freya used straws, scissors and glue gun.
1. By pasting straws at each other in bursts of two got the little horses a pasture. Of course you can use plain hobby glue but the advantage is that the glue gun glue dries at once. Freya has handled glue gun for a few years now but do you have children who are not used, you should have an adult present. The risk of burning yourself is great.
2nd Check the fine pastures!
3rd We also tried to paste the straws as a traditional fence.
Now the horses paddock opposite to be in but it is missing something more ...
4. ... A hurdle to jump over, maybe. Or many!
Now everyone is happy and the game is in full swing!
We have also made paintings with monogram in straw. These can be found here .

How on earth did you get the idea? I get a word in my head and it's brilliant! I know I used it before when it comes to your craft, but it is really so.
I have a glue gun at home but I can not find it. Do not understand where it has gone. Have to look further!
Have a really nice and sunny weekend. Hug!
Thank you Helen! I have to give Freya all the credit for this idea!
Hope you got to enjoy the sunshine this weekend!
VERY cute, congratulations!
