Using WM bags for outside bows...

[Ms. Wildflower]

I have an on-going problem with my neighbors driving on part of my yard, and I'm afraid they are going to start breaking down the hill and roll into my yard. So this weekend I put up 18" scroll-top, white garden "fencing" and made bows of of WM bags in hopes that will get their attention??? And even if the neigbors still drive where they aren't supposed to, the bows are weatherproof and i got in more bow making practise...lol. :lol:

I sure it works to keep them on their sire of the yard. I am curious as to what type of bow you made. Gotta take pictures. :girly:

[Ms. Wildflower]

The pics are in the camera, and I'll try to get them uploaded at work today, and if not then I'll do it tonight when I get home. I'm finishing up embroidery and bows for the HS cheerleaders today, so who knows what kind of work day I'll have?! But it's sure nice being the boss...lol!!

How do I insert pics??? When I tried to post the pics it asks for the URL of my pics and they are on my hard drive...not in photo bucket, etc.

Use the attachment button (paper clip) instead of the 'insert image' button.

Use the attachment button (paper clip) instead of the 'insert image' button.
You can't do this from "quick reply", you must "go advanced" in order to get the attachment button.

kick you neighbors in the butt! I had the same problem.... finally put a small fence VERy close to the edge... they never took it down that i saw but they still almost drove on the fence.... we finally moved (for relocation, not bc of neighbors)... good luck! Loris

[Ms. Wildflower]

OK, I have no idea what I'm doing wrong in trying to post the pics??? I've tried using the paperclip and when the pics upload it says there is an error. I've even tried the URL's from Photobucket, creating thumbnail pics...sigh...what is this "old lady" not doing correctly???!

[Wendy]

after you click "post reply", scroll down to "manage attachments" and click there, you should be able to upload from your computer.

If you have it hosted on Photobucket, just copy the IMG code and paste in the body of your text in the reply box. Hope that helps!

that is sweet, let us know how it works out,

[Linda]

That's hilarious but I'm having trouble trying to work out if it's a pinwheel or a twisted boutique bow....lol!!!!!

[jtgarrido]

That is too cute, I love the idea of the bags for distraction. Hope it helps!

[Ms. Wildflower]

Basically they are 2" strips, folded in 1/3's, then tied in the middle with another bag/plastic strip.

[BusyBumbleBee]

Oh my goodness that is too funny! What a fabulous way to get your hint across! Great bows too by the way!

[alondra]

That is too funny. I hope that they are not so clueless that would think that this is your way of decorating...LOL!!! Let us know how it goes.

Sandy, may the Lord be with your son and bless him always. Tell him "Thank you" from Molly in Texas.

Thank You Molly!!! I did pretty well with holding back the tears. I know I'll bawl like a baby the day he actually leaves.

Hugs...Sandy
