Today I was on a mission to find an oak branch that had fallen on the ground. It had to be the perfect size
to hold in my hand for my new project. Please note no branch was harmed in the making of this project. I found the perfect one rather quickly. Step one: sanding the oak branch.
Step 2: I was gifted this piece of leather quite some time ago . I could not remember where I put it???
I literally had to go through all of my fabric boxes and search everywhere to find it. At least I remembered I had it. Does that sound familiar?
I wanted to make sure I did not waste any part of the leather.
Step 4: I am stitching up my new piece. (the butterfly is photo shopped in, due to my sparkle
nail polish not looking so great lol!)
I am creating a rattle. A rattle to put my sadness and pain in to. Then when it is played it is transmuted
into something beautiful.
My inspiration was from Lynn Andrews, one of my favorite authors:
