Lols, my mind this morning is not 'right' I'm wondering how to do a big cow-pat in glass monkey I need my breakfast and a shower and then maybe I'll become vaguely normal again Wink

It's an inspired challenge Cornish, I'll give you that Laughing
It's definitly one to stretch our creative minds but some ideas spring to mind, like a 2D barn cut from silver or copper or a little tractor maybe made into a brooch. However, my skills are rarely up to my ideas Rolling Eyes

I was going to put a tractor in the mood board but I couldn't fit it in.

I've made some chicks.

Come on guys, I like a challenge, doesn't have to be actual animals, just go with some of the colour combos.

Interpretation is the answer:

pink beads (pigs) with squirly copper for pig tails!

White and green beads with a gold dagger bead...... Aylesbury Ducks!

Or is just me lol

Tiz good to stretch the Brian Cell (Brian = brain cell, very embarrassing once upon a time way back when i was in my early 20's, I had to complete a thesis. My then husband was checking it over with our then lodger, (now is now my younger sisters husband) Napoleon. I was lying in bed when I heard them in rapturous laughter, knowing it was going to be my spelling that had caused the mirth, I stormed into the office and gave them a piece of my mind.
It only made the situation worse as the mistake was "Brian Cell", instead of Brain Cell.... I can see then funny side of it now.
