The Chicken Coop

I am a paper crafter. I've been playing with paper, and cutting and pasting for many years now and I still just love it. I teach classes each month and would love to have you.
You can find me at MyRedHen.blogspot.com and on Pinterest
or email me at MyRedHen4@yahoo.com
I'd love to hear from you.
Every now and then I have some cards or little treats available for sale that may be seen here.
My blog also contains my personal posts. Ignore them if you like, but you may get a kick out of them. Maybe my girls will read them one day and get insights into the inner workings of an old woman's brain....Scary Thought!
There is a list of labels on the right side of the blog, so you can click there to go to only the posts that you are interested in. That will allow you to skip the personal posts and any items for sale if you wish. No matter which way you choose, I hope will enjoy my little blog and visit often.

Death of a Tree



There is a tree in my yard. They have been saying since I moved in that it is not well and will have to come down. Sick or not, I loved having it there. Now the time has come that my landlord has hired the team to come and take it down. They have been pruning other surrounding trees of dead branches as well. What a process and what a mess! This weekend the area in my flower beds surrounding the tree was piled with big chunks of the tree and my windmill and my fountain have disappeared, being moved out of the way. Today I came home to this giant pile, so little by little the tree is going away. I guess this week they'll probably be taking down the rest of it. When spring comes, I'm hoping that the things I've planted around the trees will have survived the onslaught and will bloom for me. I love my little yard during the Spring and Summer months especially, but I'm sure going to miss my tree.
