Let's revisit the 1970 McCall's Annual, and take a stroll through its Forest Fantasy. This scene combines a few of my favorite things: Bright, pop-py colors, pompoms, and mod, semi-abstract shapes. It also includes one of my craft nemeses, Styrofoam balls. Unfortunately, sometimes there's no good substitute for a foamed blob of polystyrene. Note the spool and the golf tees being utilized here. Clever! Here are the directions, if you want to make a Forest Fantasy for your very own dresser top. There's also some handy information on embarking on a thrilling career as a doll hospital operator. Happy retro crafting! xo
