Recycled

<- This is something I put together today.

The base is a vase I found at the thrift store, thought about for a week and then went back to get it.

During that week I felted a sweater that had been my dad's. It does have a better side - but you get the idea (please say yes).

Then, I went through my house picking up sticks. Yes. It's true. I have fallen branches from my magnolia tree all over my house. They are just SO handy.

There was even a bottle of ivory colored paint in my 'assorted paints' box. I'm sure spray painting would have been quicker and easier but it was glossy. For this I wanted flat.

I don't think it's finished, yet. There ARE more branches, paint, and room. That might eliminate the need for the red berries - but maybe not.

Anyway.., it cost $1.50 and a bit of time from my afternoon.

Wondering what I've got planned for the other sweater sleeve?

A nice woolly hat for my doll head!

Maybe.

I like having options.
