A rough, windy, but beautiful morning on the lake with the skyline in the distance.
So I have had this stick ... Not just any old stick, but one that broke off a tree at some point and found it way into our glorious lake, I'm pretty sure it has a story to tell about the journey it took to end up on the beach all worn and bleached. I found it on a walk with my boys. I have had it propped up in a corner for years, always knowing it was meant for greatness. Well, today was that day. After bobbing along in the lake until it was smooth and worn, then sitting in a corner for years, then hanging on my wall waiting to be turned into something good, it has become a wonderful piece of art. I love that because the stick is not straight the pictures hang a bit off, I find there is perfection in the imperfect:) I hope you are inspired to make a little something with things you find and they make you happier! This does it for me!
Enjoy this glorious day!

Great piece all around!
ReplyDeleteI like the off kilter look of the pic too, life isn't perfect it's worn in the right ways.
There's a woman up in Geneva who makes these great pieces of art with the drift wood that she finds. We picked up a bunch on the beach & dropped it off when she wasn't around like little fairies.
Happy Treasure Hunting & Creating!
