Grapevines

By Tinysissy99

My mother decided to get rid of her grapevines from her garden.  She gave a bunches of vines to me.  I tried to think of something to make out of it.   It's pretty stiff and I have not much tools with me. 

I just posted the pic...

 Any Suggestions???   Thanks!

Broke and Bitter

My Mother was always making wreaths out of them when I was younger.  When dry they are very stiff and hard to work with.  She soaked them in warm water in the bath tub for several hours before trying to bend them.  After soaking they were extremely pliable.  Her usual shapes were circles, bows and hearts.  After she formed them she tied them with floral wire and hug them up to dry.  You can also make some pretty intricate designs by weaving them together.  Hope that gives you a place to start...
