I have been stitching with some metallic threads to this piece. I love all things shiny and sparkly. They make me smile. I recall quite a number of years ago a neighbour commenting that metallic is so garish. How odd I thought that was but it left me feeling like there was something a bit wrong with me for liking something that is garish. Of course, that is her opinion and she is entitled to it but it doesn't make me wrong. I have come to learn that two people can have opposing opinions and both be right.
This piece is truly mixed-media. Dyed coffee filter, painted tracing paper, buttons and gems and the aforementioned metallic thread have come together. I still plan to add more metallic thread because it makes me happy!
