Hi, Dianna,
Good to hear from you! Thank you for your kind words!
I wish you the best of luck with your kitty emergencies; those are no fun at all... hope things are going better now. My thoughts are with you and your felines. :-)
Gosh, I'm so glad you like my wood creation!
Can you tell I'm a homeschooling mom who misses doing lots of nature art and crafts now that my kiddo is 13? (Sure, we still do nature A & C sometimes, but hunting for the perfect branch or stone or colored leaf is just, um, different with a teenager than with a preschooler, ya know?)
I had a good time making it-- once I realized I don't yet have the breadth and depth of knowledge to do something like handcarving a small bowl or spoon or picture frame... some day! But I do love scavenging for goodies that can become found-objects-art, and my lack of woodworking skills turned the project into a fun romp around a storage barn on my parents' farm, where I also found a couple really old cast iron cast-offs: the fork part of a pitchfork that I'm now using as a baby trellis, and a huge railroad tie that no doubt will eventually let me know its new purpose. ;-)
Everywhere I go, I'm always collecting cool rocks and branches and sea glass and little bits of nature that cry out, "take me home!" so it was really fun to make art for you from aesthetically pleasing little bits of nature. (Just picking the right stones was like a meditation exercise for me!)
Take care and keep in touch! All the best!

Lol, Amy, yes, I can relate!! My 15 yr old doesnt hold the same amount of excitement as she did when 4, 6, 8 even 10! But I STILL DO!! One day they will return to that childlike awe and excitement of nature. My grown son is a prime example with his new daughter! So you are great! I share a love of nature nugget collections also! A shelf, a drawer, a box....all hold my love for nature! So high five or fist bump Amy! You go girl!! Thank you again....really love it
