Look at the puzzle I found at Michaels yesterday! I just wanted to share this with those of you who are crazy about the Eiffel tower like I am. My plan is to build this and then cover it with vintage glass glitter. I recently made an Eiffel tower from cardboard and after painting it black, I covered it with with vintage black glass glitter. It looks great! This will be a challenge since it is not a flat surface, but I am excited about the challenge. Have a great day!

I saw those at Michaels. Let me know how easy it was. LOL It looked like quite a complicated model to me!
It will look wonderful coated in glass glitter!
But, then - what doesn't?!?!
Hey Rhonda,
Just wanted to stop by and say hello. My best wishes to you and your family; I hope your husband is doing better.
Best wishes and high hopes to you,
Jennie
Can't wait to see the finished tower! What a great idea. Be sure to let us know if it was difficult or not!
Happy spring!

I hope you don't mind, but I'm going to totally copy you! Oh wait, not "copy": be inspired by!
Very, very cool. Thank you.
Good luck Rhonda. It looks to be quite the project but knowing your love for the Eiffel Tower you won't consider this a project at all. I'll be anxious to see the results.

I'm so glad that I've found your blog, I adore France and everything French too!
I reckon your eiffel tower will look absolutely amazing covered in glass glitter, I think you should attach a small handsewn french flag on top aswell
Many thanks for making this amazing blog for me to follow and inspire me

I hope you have alot of the glass glitter !!
it will look stunning when you complete this !
Hi Rhonda!
Thank you so much for your kind words - I truly appreciate your support. I believe your positive thoughts helped me as I accepted a wonderful position this morning and start Monday. I couldn't be more pleased!!
Also, I went to Tuesday Morning yesterday and if you have one near you...go! They have wrought iron Eiffel Towers and various gift bags and office supplies with Paris themes. I got so caught up in it and then remembered that it's not me that loves Paris but you! ha ha ha
Also, on Sunday I was helping my Mom clean her garage and much to my surprise found my box of Adam Ant posters, pictures, etc from when I was a kid. We laughed for a good 10 minutes and I was as giddy as a 13 year old!
Take care of that hubby and talk to you soon!
Best wishes and high hopes to you,
Jennie
It's going to look amazing!
