"Hygiene" Crafts

Recently, I ran across a craft blog labeled simply "tampon crafts". I thought this was absurd, and I of course had to click the link and view what exactly a "tampon craft" was. I dont know what I was expecting, but what I found was just... strange. So apparently you can do crafts with tampons. I do have to admit that I am going to shy away from this particular brand of crafting, but the idea alone is a little bit ingenious, however, I was left with a few questions like: who thought of this? why did they think of it? can you get away with decorating your entire tree with tampons without anyone knowing? and can I send my husband to the store to buy tampons for crafting purposes? I would love to have a tampon tree, and to explain to everyone that comes over, from the home teachers to the relatives, that this year we decided to celebrate with feminine hygiene products... yes the decorations were a bit more than if I used the traditional ornaments I had, but this is classy, great, and well down right fun! Okay, to be fair i am sure tampon ornaments have their place- an all girls apartment, a gynecologist's office, and your husband/boyfriend/brother's side of the room/yard/house, but sadly they wont be gracing our home this holiday season. I would love to see Brian's face if he came home to a house decorated with tampons. In the mean time I am going to go the tradiational route- snowflakes, santas, sparkles, and pine garlands... maybe next year.
