RECYCLED ART

Using my eco-dyed string leftovers to wrap around an old embroidery hoop,
I whipped this delightful old doily that I salvaged from a garage sale,
onto the hoop for a very pretty dangling window light catcher ornament.
I think this doily might be at least a 100 years old because it was really browned with age,
and I even washed it first before mounting it.
It went perfectly with the eco-dyed strings.

  1. With thanks to Joni Mitchell, whose sweet voice came to me as I read this:

    And the seasons they go round and round
    And the painted ponies go up and down
    We're captive on the carousel of time
    We can't return we can only look
    Behind from where we came
    And go round and round and round
    In the circle game
