All Strung Up

 
 
 
Having recently acquired/borrowed from Mum, a copy of ‘Granny Chic’, and noticing a rather blank patch of wall in my room, I decided to create a ‘quirky & jolly string’. I have decided on a slightly more modern update than the one featured in the book. I’ve composed mine from a mixture of book pages, wrapping paper, mirrored beads, feathers, beads and fabric flowers.
 
It was slightly more complicated than I originally thought it would be… Knotting tiny bits of thread is just a little fiddly and becomes tangles far too easily! But with two nails hammered into my walls, my ‘quirky & jolly string’ looks quite pleasant and fills a gap quite adequately!
