This is the memory ornament I made for my family.My Dad loved the ocean and fishing. I covered the silk ball with a shirt he wore to my daughter's wedding. Added some shells , seaweed , small pieces of cork and real beach sand. The fishing pole was made from bamboo we used at my daughter's wedding. Those little fish are from a bracelet I found at the dollar store. A twine bow , little feather and a picture charm added the final touches.They turned out great and everyone loved them.We shed a few tears , but I know they will be treasured for years to come.
That's wonderful, JoyceAnn. I know your dad's spirit is hovering ever near and loving you even more. And it's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe ornament and the Warrior poem are just beautiful tributes.
ReplyDeleteI really like the ornament because you used things that meant something to you and your dad.
