Pick some dandelions -- the thicker and longer, the better.
No, scissors needed! Just use your fingers to split each end into 4-6 strips.
And drop into a bowl of cold water.
You'll end up with crazy, curly, dandelion art pieces!
Dandy fun!

Blessing #7
Dandelions are becoming plentiful this time of year and most people would think of them as anything but a blessing. But when I was a kid, my mom showed me this fun thing you can do with them. So when I see them, it makes me smile.

Cute! But I still don't want them in my yard!
