lavender

I used some of my dried lavender today for something a little different

using a 3 inch square piece of a book cover

(heavy tagboard would work)

I glued down the buds .... going round and round .... adding more and more

It needed a focal point, so I added a piece of beach glass to the center

at first I used hot glued, but it quickly fell off

wire wrapping the glass and threading it through the book cover did the trick

 I added lavender stems as a border

(about 3 stems wide)

it's awfully small - I may use it in a larger art piece

or perhaps small is good

something to think on before moving ahead ....
