  1. I promise I won’t steal your Treetective idea.

    Maybe. ;)

    1. OK, so for Treetective, I’m imagining a tree-hugging (literally) detective who hugs trees and sees images/clues of the crime. He/she has to piece the images together–build the crime tree, if you will.

      1. Ohh, that’s good. I’m stealing it!

  2. This is very cool and I just love all the detailed work that has gone into this! Favourite bit was when you had written that the trees had her surrounded – boom, boom! :) Great fun! :)

      1. :) No problem.

  3. I pine for the ability to talk to trees. Sorry.

    1. S’okay, I’m very frond of puns :D

    The trees were such good listeners!

  5. …a hot July laugh: perfect!

  6. So awesome as always! And I hear the ability to talk to trees is hereditary. Because, you know, the apple doesn’t fall from the…yeah.

  7. I love this blog. What a great idea. And considering the insane detective shows out there this is totally plausible

    1. It’d be pretty awesome if someone DID steal it cause I’m too lazy to make it a show.

      1. You should make it into a cartoon strip then. With loads of puns. The dectective’s name should be something treeish. Like Chip Thorn or..or… something. (I’m not good at puns.)

  8. LOL I was expecting her to say, after the pause, “…make like a tree and WHAT??” That would have been me. I never got the puns. Funny stuff, Nicole.

  9. so tree-talker not hugger

    1. As far as I know…

      1. :-) my kind of girl

  10. Bahahaha, awesome!

  11. Stealing it. Totally.

    1. Oh, okay… you’ll probably do a good job of it!

  12. Your blog is awesome!

  13. Those trees are better than a lot of comics I’ve seen.

    OMG, we think alike! At each photo I had the same thought and then read it as my mouse hovered over the pic! Perhaps we could have been bosom friends in a past life. OR, we’re both just suffering from overactive imaginations…..Let’s forget I said that, okay? lol

    1. It wasn’t until this very comment it occured to me the pics might have some hidden content “hovering” above them. Now think of all the other hidden meaning in this world that I never found out about… Oh, the Tragedy!

    2. hahahaha! I’m often accused of an overactive imagination :D

  15. I love this one! Gave me and my husband a very good laugh! :D I always look forward to your blog posts – they’re always so artistic, creative and lots of fun!

    1. Thanks :) I’m glad you like them!

  16. This is one of my favorites of yours but not quite sure why ….. cuz you’re making me feel just a tad guilty about convincing my stepdaughters there really ARE garden fairies…….

    1. Ha! Do they like Lady Cottington’s Pressed Fairy book? That always makes me laugh

  17. your posts are always reminding me of my childhood with my sister and the three neighbor girls I grew up with. One day while walking the short trail the separated our houses, Elizabeth saw a nest in the tree. She decided to go check out the eggs, when a bird literally attacked her head. I laughed a great day that day :) Lots of fun times in the woods.

    1. Oh, poor Elizabeth! I’ve been there, too. My cat and I were chased down the street by a flock of very angry blue jays once!

    Love it. You’ve got alder right stuff, Nicole.

  19. I just noticed your icons are the same medium you use for your comics. I think that’s super crafty and super neat!

    1. Thanks! They were pretty fun to make :D

    I need a ‘love it’ option for this!

  21. Be careful of the woods! Those trees are creepy!

    1. Definitely. Especially if you can’t hear what they’re saying.

  22. What I wished I could do when going bushwalking with people who never stop talking…not even to take a breath :) Just gorgeous :)

  23. F*cking hilarious!

  24. I love trees and I do think they’re talking to me. Your forest is so beautiful, so Sherwood Forest storybook like! I want to jump inside and live in it!

    1. Thanks! I miss these woods so, so much. We spent a lot of time playing in them and sometimes I feel sad that I can never go back to them. They were so special.

    Love it! Absolutely hilarious as usual!

  26. Hahaha tree-mendous! Talking to trees? Now that’s branching out… I love your posts, one suggestion though, how about instead of Treetective, you call you detective Fir-lock Holmes ;)

    I have seen far worse ideas make it to TV. I would watch this one.

  28. The reminds me of Biff’s line in Back to The Future – make like a tree and get out of here.

    Awwww…. I like Charlotte! She must be the treehugger of the family :-)

  30. It’s nice to know I am not the only one who talks to trees as well as inanimate objects. My husband and friends found that endearing. Now they think I am nuts. :)
    Keep on crafting!
    By the way, I am also a middle sister.

  31. oh its so funny. Always amazed by ur creativity and imaginations. Your crafts inspired me a lot on my bento making for the past 7 months.

  32. Very cleaver and I love to hug trees. :)

  33. So, at this point, Charlotte would get to sing “I am right, you are wrong, you are the dirtiest thing of all” to Chrissy, right?

    Cool

  35. P.S., I’d like to see a T-shirt with a picture of Chrissy doing the “I Am Right, You Are Wrong” song.

  36. Love the details with the forest. Hilarious as always!!

  37. What an original idea. Great job. I just started doing this blog thing, well actually I’ve been trying to get started for like 3 years +. Good luck to your blog and thanks at the food for thought on a blog. Very creative :)
