    My latest project, Grapes. Here in Western New York grapes use to be the biggest crop. Now days they are most certainly thing out as more and more farmers get out of the grape business. However we still seem to be know for them and back in the days of The DAV&P grapes where everywhere. So I set out to scratch build some grape rows. Here are a few pictures of how things went.

    Image no. 1 shows the grape rows and vines / stocks. The stocks where made from yarn, I had wanted to use twine, but last wall-mart did not have any in stock.

    Image No. 2 shows some grape clusters have been added. I made the grape clusters out of green beads. The leaves where made from paper hole punches on green paper.

    Image No. 3 shows 2 rows finished and one with just stocks.

    Image no. 3 shows a close up of the finished rows.
