Sparkles

another peek at what I'm playing with...
not good photos again...
will get around to working on that soon...

I was lucky to receive a 'tree of life' as a gift a few years ago...
a bonsei type tree in a little rectangular pot...
growing over a rock....
it lasted a while but I somehow managed to let it die...

I kept the basic structure in the hope that I could remake it into something interesting...
have been thinking recently of all the bits hiding in my jewellery box...
other gifts that normally dont see the light...
found a bit of wire that I had to liberate from its plastic insulation...
some sparkly bits from a wedding table decoration....



what I wanted was a tree shape....
with dangly bits as the leaves....
its still a work in progress...
but you get the idea....

trying to get the dangles hanging straight...
manipulating the wire into a tree shape...
arranging the sparkles to a more...
pleasing arrangement...
something else to work on....
