Remember 1

Remember

All the materials in this piece are found objects and up cycled/recycled and have the natural patina of history and mystery!

The center piece is made from an old photo of a woman I think looks like Emily Dickinson. I framed it with copper foil. I added three tiny bottles with natural items in them. One has little pieces from a bluebird egg, one had red rose hips, on has dried mosses. The bottles have a tiny mica lid

Along with beads and baubles I used pieces of beaded jewelry, old buttons, a tiny watch face, chains, and old tokens to create the sides. The pieces are mounted on hand dyed crocheted silky ribbons and have a toggle clasp on the top. The sides are each about 9 inches long.
