Take a canvas and wood folding director's chair that's spent far too long out in the weather.

Concert it into a table, of sorts, and leave it to weather some more.

It may be on the verge of falling apart but that's not going to stop someone from using it as a comfortable perch, to have a sleep.

Some shiny beads and earring fixings from the market became the Christmas baubles on the dollshouse tree.

Can you please leave this vase to me when you die? I just adore it, it's so beautiful.

thanks pimpy, its my relaxation. it was my first word. I had done shapes prior to it. I was a couple of hours to mark up and a couple to fold. I can do it faster now 🙂

My next one will say family one way up and forever the other way up. Just need a big enough book 🙂

There are not words (well, maybe there are, but I can't think of them), to describe how incredible that is.

I keep coming back, just to look at the photo. You're fantastically talented, and if I could give you two Kudos, I would.
