    Thanks everyone!
    Got all the acorns done, now to figure out how I want to make them into a garland banner to go across the windows.

    What a cute idea - beautifully made!

    To attach them to a ribbon you could use the plastic KAM snaps that come in various colors. That way, you could make another set with a different theme and change them out. I bought some on Amazon some months ago, and they're easy to install, unless you get goofy and put one on upside down, as I recently did on a baby bib. I have wondered how sturdy these little plastic doo-dads would be, and trying to remove it was conclusive evidence that if they're installed firmly, they go on to stay. I wound up having to find wire cutter pliers to cut the stubborn little thing off.

    That's an interesting idea! I already have those snaps, got them years ago for a project and have used them on random projects here and there ever since, but it didn't even dawn on me to use them for this! Thanks for the idea!

    Really autumn-like. They will look cute in your living room as an accent. Hope you feel better soon.

    I love your acorns! But the first thing I noticed was your adorable pooch!

    Love your two acorns-they are so cute. Take care of yourself. Maybe if you lean against a solid backed chair-that may help your back
