just a bunch of random bits and pieces thrown together on this one. the linen wrapped frame was supposed to be for another project that totally didn't work out. i got tired of looking at the thing so i decided to throw a few flowers on it which then turned into one flower and an owl. what to use for the stem of the flower took me a few minutes to come up with - it is a mini dowel that i colored with copic markers. the plastic leaf i found at a bead shop in the garment district.
