I found this old piece of pressed tin in a junk shop and immediately wanted to start hanging things from it, in a beaded curtain sort of way. It even had holes drilled in it already. (a sign!) Some of my hanging strands of 'found objects', pieces of junk and memorabilia, will eventually intertwine with the others, hopefully making a very interesting wall hanging. Here are some photos in progress…. I do need a title though. Can you help?
#1) It's about 4' wide and 8" high.
#2) Detail.
#3) In progress.
#4) Feathers, paintbrush, broken jewelry. Attaching certain things to other things is the hardest part!
#5) I was so excited when I found this broken half of a bracelet on the ground in an alley. This is my favorite strand so far.
#6) Detail. Happy Star of David.
#7) People give me the coolest, random things…. enamel kitty earrings HAVE to be from the 1980's!
#8) This is a mini cast iron frying pan, and a little locket I put gemstones in, hanging from a bike chain. Nope…. no rhyme or reason. It's all visual.
#9) An old, rusty drill bit. The beginning of a strand. Stay tuned, watch it progress and help me with a name….. I'm thinking something about little pieces of the world….something from everywhere….
