The Evolving Artist

My Latest Thrift Find

On May 2, 2013 By

I found this macrame plant hanger at the Goodwill for $3. In the winter I had different lanterns hanging from the hook, with a rope and pulley system and I loved it, but I wanted something different for spring. So took it down and just waited.
