Once again I have gone much too long w/out posting.  I have made some progress on my art room
but I'm not where I want it to be yet. (meaning no pictures yet)
 Hot water heater died which is forcing us to clean out the garage-something we said we needed to do a year ago.  At least it is finally getting done.  I'm going to work on some projects that I put out there and just
"forgot" about.  My mom saved our baby bed-so when they moved I kept it with the intention of making something for each of us to hang. (rail sides and each end piece) I get one of each since I am the one doing the work :)  Got them cleaned up today so I can actually work on them.                    
  I also re-discovered some of my dead animal bones and my bundle. (disintegration)
So here are pictures I took. This one stayed outside well over a year-maybe closer to two.

Cool bundle! Happy for you getting your garage done, but this heat must make it hard. Good luck with art room.
ReplyDeleteWow, I randomly stumbled across your blog. Thank you for sharing and posting. The bundle is crazy cool especially how it naturally weathered, deteriorated and unraveled. Kind of a metaphor of my life. lol. Wouldn't mind seeing some more frequent posts from you.
