I've been so preoccupied that I didn't realize that my Daughter has put out a new creation. Several weeks back she had asked if I could send her some of her childhood dresses. Three to be exact. Above is her in one of the dresses.
I struggled with it for several weeks until I finally put them in a box and mailed them. I had such a hard time letting them go. Sad part is, they were in a closet and were only looked at every couple of years, if that.
I came in and posted the No Bake Oatmeal Cookies and I noticed she had an update. When I opened her blog to see what she was up to, it literally took my breath away.
I am no longer sad that I let the dresses go. I am also very happy that she is incorporating some fibre with her metal arts.
I immediately had to text and ask if she had any of the material left to make me a brooch.
I am very excited that she said yes. Now I get to have a part of her past and a part of her future that I can wear, or maybe use as an ornament on the tree.
Hopefully, one day, she may even want to learn how to crochet. I do feel that need to hand it down.
Isn't it stunning. I just love it.
What a great way to preserve your past and have a beautiful piece of art.
With Grace,
Debra
