I'll make a note and leave ufo as well enough alone.
when I find out, I make a note and change my naming.
re that last- it's a shrub. imagine a tree that grew that way.
Imagine a line(wo)man turning around in the bucket and finding a biiig one.
or not.
actually, I don't think it's sanguineum now I look.
Geranium maculatum looks closer but it feels wrong.
In your part of the world surly are other sorts, but I think the leaves look like geranium.
geranilox
Is it G What is it 039 time?
Lampshade?
A hallucination?
neither, and I used to make these and paper stars and sprigs of mistletoe to help raise money for da gurl scouts when I was a grade schooler.
You were a girls scout??? How much did that operation cost ya?
it's the sweater you knitted to mothers-day, with Lurex fibre and blue semi conductors

Is it an angel?
no, my mother was regional grand poo-bah.
I got drafted. no, think about crafts you could get 9-14 year old kids to do. in 1972-4.
Check this out! It's the What is it? blog! This guy collects unusual objects and posts pictures of them on his blog as puzzles for people to figure out what they are. He has some really interesting things. There are plenty of pics in his archives, as he's been doing this since 2004.
maizey.. maybe he needs to join our forum!
g39.. is it plastic wrap over something?
G#39 looks like part of my niece's Little Mermaid costume. Goody.....were you a tailor as a child? lol
no plastic wrap, think of older shiny.
not fabric, this is a decorated box.
OK so that's the answer.. a decorated box to hang from the tree as an ornament!!!!!!!! Ta daaaaaaa! LOL
Older than plastic wrap????? I'd say that was before my time, but you said 1972-4...hmmmm. It looks like sequins or glitter, is it on tie-dyed fabric maybe?
goodgotd..............thanks for getting the link to those two pictures, i dont understant why they did not link for me? .....Oh unusual pine cones, to say the least.
that unidentified flower! i think its related to the Carnation Family, papaveracceae....dicenta, mmmmmmmmm methinks!
buckleysmom.........yep buckley and Molly are surely water babes!
i am very late arriving tonight, boating on the lake for 11 hours, waiting for the Mayfly to hatch, it started as it was getting dark so no trout, maybe tomorrow, or monday????

is it a beaded tapestry?

A decorated box to put X-mas cards in?
I remember when we were kids, we'd make decorative boxes out of picture post cards put together with needle and knitting yarn. That was the 9-14 age group back then.
copmom.........9-14 age group back then! 1972-74, i am counting, so your are about...?
here is one of me in the 1960's, but with the way my picture links are going in the past two days! i am crossing my fingers? http://usera.imagecave.com/Paulga/PaulgaBackLeft.jpg

Neat picture.. what were you in? Don't waste your brain counting.. '72 I was already married 14 years with 4 kids!
Age is not a particularly interesting subject. Anyone can get old. All you have to do is live long enough. - Groucho Marx
Yes, and birthdays are great...the more you have the longer you live.
Paulga....which one is you? Here's one for you (it's not me but...you'll see)
ya got the glitter part right, so here's a wider view.
here's a flyer for UFO hunters but these are tiny- 10-12mm blossoms.
the links needed thumb.asp?u=309429&filename= removed.
----random kindness
catching bandit hesitant with a camera ready... priceless, the great moose.
Buckleysmom...........nice card, very true, i always say there are three people living in my house Hudson, Molly and me! oh that old photo, i am back left in it, aged about 17 or so, perhaps 19.
copmom...............ok, ok, i stopped counting? that was the Cavalry Corps, the Presidential Escort " they started with horses ".....not the bikes, the Corps he he!
gooddgotd............bandits eyes are blue?.......cute cat, yea but what is that flower???
Paulga
an Unidentified Flowering Object, of course. just open in these pix.
the pink is in the front yard, the purple by the driveway. by the leaves, same plant. itty bitty blossoms, the leaves can get huge.
yep, the Blue-Eyed Bumble. Terri says he stole her heart, so- Bandit.
but once he grew a bit...
Nickname I hung on him from that dollmation pic where the elf wants to be a dentist. Bumbles Bounce, and all that.
scale pictures here and here and, noting this is the image the camera took, honest- cropped, resized smaller, but no processing- there's this nice shot.
I named that one Survey of Drain.
i'm not sure exactly what pic #39 is, but it looks like a scene with snowy mountains.
oh oh oh is it a tree skirt?
----------------
bandit is a beautiful cat.
Looked better before he shook his ear delaminated.
ack.. err, not a tree skirt, but it was intended to evoke winter, so it's got it. hot-screen process wax with glitter added.
I made paper rosettes then dipped and sprinkled. I used fake leaves and different color wax for something like this one year. messier. dip plastic, stick to box, wait...
here's a somber composition called foggy dawn, a burr for you.. and a shot of another euphorbia I didn't recognize at the time.
